Answer

given,

high temperature reservoir (T_c)= 464 K

efficiency  of reservoir (ε)= 25 %

temperature to decrease = ?

increase in efficiency = 42 %

now, using equation

 \epsilon = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{T_H}

 0.25 = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{464}

 T_C= (1 - 0.25) \times 464

 T_C= 0.75 \times 464

      T_C = 348 K

now,

if the efficiency is equal to 42$ = 0.42

 T_C= (1 - 0.42) \times 464

 T_C= 0.58 \times 464

 T_C= 269.12\ K

A 91.0-kg hockey player is skating on ice at 5.50 m/s. another hockey player of equal mass, moving at 8.1 m/s in the
never [62]

The momentum before the collision velocity after the collision will be 1237.6 kg m/s² and 6.8 m/sec.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>

According to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the body before the collision is always equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.

The given data in the problem is;

(m₁) is the mass of hockey player 1= 91.0-kg

(m₂) is the mass of hockey player 2=  91.0-kg

(u₁) is the velocity before collision of hockey player 1 = 5.50 m/s.

(u₂) is the velocity before the collision of hockey player 2=?

a)

Momentum before the collision;

\rm  m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 \\\\ 91.0 \times 5.50 + 91.0 \times 8.1 \\\\ 1237.6 kg m/s^2

Momentum before the collision = 1237.6 kg m/s².

b)

The velocity of the two hockey players after the collision from the law of conservation of the momentum as:

Momentum before collision = Momentum after the collision

1237.6 kg m/s² = (m₁+m₂)V

1237.6 kg m/s² =(2 ×91.0-kg )V

V=6.8 m/sec.

Hence, momentum before the collision velocity after the collision will be 1237.6 kg m/s² and 6.8 m/sec.

At what speed should a ball of mass 2 kg be rolled in order to reach the other side of
Veronika [31]

Answer:

M g H = 1/2 M v^2       potential energy = kinetic energy

v^2 = 2 g H = 2 * 9.80 * 6 = 117.6 m/s^2

v = 10.8 m/s

What is Newton’s second law of motion
ddd [48]

"<em>F = dP/dt. </em> The net force acting on an object is equal to the rate at which its momentum changes."

These days, we break up "the rate at which momentum changes" into its units, and then re-combine them in a slightly different way.  So the way WE express and use the 2nd law of motion is

"<em>F = m·A.</em>  The net force on an object is equal to the product of the object's mass and its acceleration."

The two statements say exactly the same thing. You can take either one and work out the other one from it, just by working with the units.
