Peter starts out from a restaurant traveling at 24 mph. Alex leaves the restaurant 15 minutes later, traveling at 36 mph in the

same direction. How long will it take Alex to pass Peter? How far away from the restaurant will they be when Alex passes Peter? (0.5 hours, 18 miles from the restaurant)

Answer:

(a): Will take 0.5 hours to Alex pass Peter.

(b): They will be 18 miles away from the restaurant.

Explanation:

d= 24 mh * 0.25 min

d= 6 miles

t= 6 miles / (36mph - 24mph)

t= 0.5 hours (a)

x= 36 mph * t

x= 36mph * 0.5 hr

x= 18 miles (b)

Give one example of a thermodynamic cycle that does not account for the carnot efficiency.
Arturiano [62]

Thermo-Electrochemical converter (UTEC) is a thermodynamic cycle that does not account for the Carnot Efficiency.

The Carnot cycle is a hypothetical cycle that takes no account of entropy generation. It is assumed that the heat source and heat sink have perfect heat transfer. The working fluid also remains in the same phase, as opposed to the Rankine cycle, in which the fluid changes phase. A practical thermodynamic cycle, such as the Rankine cycle, would achieve at most 50% of the Carnot cycle efficiency under similar heat source and heat sink temperatures.

<h3>What is Thermo-Electrochemical converter?</h3>

In a two-cell structure, a thermo-electrochemical converter converts potential energy difference during hydrogen oxidation and reduction to heat energy.

It employs the Ericsson cycle, which is less efficient than the Carnot cycle. In a closed system, it converts heat to electrical energy. There are no external input or output devices.

This means there will be no mechanical work to be done, as well as no exhaust. As a result, Carnot efficiency is not taken into account in this cycle. Carnot efficiency is accounted for by other options such as turbine and engine.

BRAINLIEST!! What did Robert Sternberg believe about intelligence?
Sindrei [870]
The triarchic theory of intelligence was formulated by Robert J. Sternberg, a prominent figure in the research of human intelligence. The theory by itself was groundbreaking in that it was among the first to go against the psychometric approach to intelligence and take a more cognitive approach

What is the horizontal acceleration of a ball that is launched horizontally with a velocity of 5.6 m/s?
pochemuha
Once it leaves the bat, the club, or the hand, there is no
horizontal force on it (ignoring air resistance).  So it has
no horizontal acceleration (ignoring air resistance).
