Complete Question

Q. Two go-carts, A and B, race each other around a 1.0km track. Go-cart A travels at a constant speed of 20m/s. Go-cart B accelerates uniformly from rest at a rate of 0.333m/s^2. Which go-cart wins the race and by how much time?

Answer:

Go-cart A is faster

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the track is $l = 1.0 \ km = 1000 \ m$

The speed of A is $v__{A}} = 20 \ m/s$

The uniform acceleration of B is $a__{B}} = 0.333 \ m/s^2$

Generally the time taken by go-cart A is mathematically represented as

$t__{A}} = \frac{l}{v__{A}}}$

=> $t__{A}} = \frac{1000}{20}$

=> $t__{A}} = 50 \ s$

Generally from kinematic equation we can evaluate the time taken by go-cart B as

$l = ut__{B}} + \frac{1}{2} a__{B}} * t__{B}}^2$

given that go-cart B starts from rest u = 0 m/s

So

$1000 = 0 *t__{B}} + \frac{1}{2} * 0.333 * t__{B}}^2$

=> $1000 = 0 *t__{B}} + \frac{1}{2} 0.333 * t__{B}}^2$

=> $t__{B}} = 77.5 \ seconds$

Comparing $t__{A}} \ and \ t__{B}}$ we see that $t__{A}}$ is smaller so go-cart A is faster

What would be the coefficient of performance if the refrigerator (operating between the same temperatures) was instead used as a

viktelen [127]

Complete Question

A certain refrigerator, operating between temperatures of -8.00°C and +23.2°C, can be approximated as a Carnot refrigerator.

What is the refrigerator's coefficient of performance? COP

(b) What If? What would be the coefficient of performance if the refrigerator (operating between the same temperatures) was instead used as a heat pump? COP

Answer:

a

$COP = 8.49$

b

$COP_1 = 9.49$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The lower operation temperature of refrigerator is $T_1 = -8.00^oC = 265 \ K$

The upper operation temperature of the refrigerator is $T_2 = 23.2 ^oC = 296.2 \ K$

Generally the refrigerators coefficient of performance is mathematically represented as

$COP = \frac{T_1}{T_2 - T_1 }$

=> $COP = \frac{265}{296.2 - 265 }$

=> $COP = 8.49$

Generally if a refrigerator (operating between the same temperatures) was instead used as a heat pump , the coefficient of performance is mathematically represented as

$COP_1 = \frac{T_2}{ T_2 - T_1}$

=> $COP_1 = \frac{296.2}{ 296.2 - 265 }$

=> $COP_1 = 9.49$

Suppose we wrap a string around the surface of a uniform cylinder of radius 38.0 cm that is supported by an axle passing through

liraira [26]

Answer:

Angular acceleration = 23.68 rad / s²

Explanation:

Given that,

acceleration = 9m/s²

Therefore acceleration of string is 9m/s²

since string is constant in length

cylinder of radius 38.0 cm = 0.38m

Angular acceleration = a / r

Angular acceleration = 9 / 0.38

= 23.68 rad / s²

Angular acceleration = 23.68 rad / s²

What is the slope of the line?

coldgirl [10]

(30, 5)
(10, 1)

change of y / change of x
= (30 - 10) / (5 - 1)
= 20 /4
= 5

Why x ray is called an electromagnetic wave<br>

Dahasolnce [82]

Because they behave just like all the electromagnetic waves of the spectrum. Same equations, just shorter wavelengths and more energy.

Hope you get it :)
