Answer:

C. Takes heat in, does work, and loses energy heat.

Explanation:

Heat engine is a system makes use of thermal energy (heat) to in order to do mechanical work.

This occurs by converting the heat into mechanical energy. This energy is then used to do work.

The key characteristic of a heat engine is that the substance with which work is done by, goes from a higher temperature to a lower temperature.

Hence, it loses heat as it does work.

A rocket ship is accelerating at 200 m/s2, its mas is 135,000,000 kg. What is the force generated by this acceleration?
Rina8888 [55]

Acceleration does NOT "generate" force.  Acceleration NEEDS force to make it happen.  Without force ... provided by something else ... acceleration can't happen.

The force NEEDED to accelerate a mass with a certain acceleration is

Force needed = (mass) times (acceleration)

For the rocket ship in the question,

Force = (135,000,000 kg) times (200 m/s²)

Force = (135,000,000 x 200) kg-m/s²

<em>Force = 27 Giga-Newtons  </em>(27,000,000,000 Newtons)


The gas-generator cycle F-1 rocket engine, developed in the US by Rocketdyne in the late 1950s, was used in the Saturn V rocket, the main launch vehicle of NASA's Apollo moon lander program .  Five F-1 engines were used in the first stage of each Saturn V.  

==> The thrust of each F-1 engine at full throttle is 7,770 kilo-Newtons.  

It would take <em>3,475 </em>of these F-1 rocket engines, running full-throttle, to provide the force calculated in the answer to this question.  If you didn't have 3,475 F-1 rocket engines, then you couldn't accelerate 135,000,000 kg at 200 m/s².

(And by the way ... the mass of each F-1 engine is 8,400 kg.  So 3,475 engines alone account for 22% of the mass you're trying to accelerate.  And don't even get me started about the mass of the FUEL you'd need to carry.)

1)the car's engine power is 44000W. Explain this number in a physical sense
Ratling [72]

Answer:

1) It expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) P = 20 W

3) h = 18 km

Explanation:

1) Power is the rate of transfer of energy.

⇒ Power = \frac{Energy(or workdone)}{Time}

i.e P = \frac{E}{t}

Thus a car's engine power is 44000W implies that the engine of the car can propel the car at this rate. This expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) m = 400g = 0.4 kg

    t = 20 s

h = 100m

g = 10 m/s^{2}

P = \frac{mgh}{t}

  = \frac{0.4*10*100}{20}

  = \frac{400}{20}

P = 20 W

3) u = 600 m/s

   g = 10 m/s^{2}

From the third equation of free fall,

V^{2} = U^{2} - 2gh

V is the final velocity, U is the initial velocity, h is the height.

0 = (600)^{2} - 2 x 10 x h

0 = 360000 - 20h

20h = 360000

h = \frac{360000}{20}

  = 18000

h = 18 km

The maximum height of the bullet would be 18 km.
