Answer:

Telescope

Explanation:

Telescope is usually defined as an optical instrument that is commonly used to observe the objects in a magnified way that are located at a large distance from earth. These telescopes are comprised of lenses and curved mirrors that are needed to be arranged in a proper way in order to have a prominent look. It is commonly used by the astronomers.

This was first constructed by Hans Lippershey in the year 1608.

The engine of a 2000 kg Mercedes going up Pike’s Peak delivers energy to its drive wheel at the rate 100 kW . Neglecting air res
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Mass of Mercedes engine = 2000 Kg

Power delivered = 100 kW

angle made with horizontal = 30°

acceleration due to gravity =  10 m/s²

largest speed car can sustain = ?

we know,

Power = Force x velocity

P = F x v

P = mg sinθ x v

P = mg sin 30° x v

P = 0.5 mg  x v

v = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3}{0.5\times 2000 \times 10}

v = 10 m/s

hence, the maximum velocity is equal to v = 10 m/s
