The energy efficiency of a car is approximately 20%. If you put 10 gallons of gas into the car, how many gallons are “wasted”?

First, you find what 20% of 10 gallons of gas would be. This will show how many gallons the car actually uses.
10 gallons x 20% =
10 x 0.20 =
2 gallons used

Then you subtract that number from the total 10 gallons to get how many gallons of gas would be wasted.
10 gallons - 2 gallons = 
8 gallons of gas wasted

Which statement is correct about the car?
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

OOf we are doing this stuff atm

So if its faster at the front and slow at the back you can tell that its not slowing down because less of a force is there however at the front there is more of a force. Friction is low which means that its not makimg much contact so no sudden change of forces thats also why its B

When a garden hose with an output diameter of 20 mm is directed straight upward, the stream of water rises to a height of 0.13m
SpyIntel [72]

Answer: h = 0.52m

Explanation:

Using the equation of out flow;

A1 × V1 = A2 ×V2

Where A1 = area of the first nozzle

A2 = area of the second nozzle

V1= velocity of flow out from the first nozzle

V2 = velocity of flow out from 2nd nozzle

But AV= area of nozzle × velocity of water = volume of water per second(m³/s).

Now we can set A×V = Area of nozzle × height of rise.

Henceb A1× h1 = A2 × h2 ( note the time cancel on both sides)

D1 = 20mm= 0.02m; h1 = 0.13m

D2 = 10mm = 0.01m; h2= ?

h2 = π(D1/2)²× h1 /π(D2/2)²

h2 = (0.02/2)² × 0.13/(0.01/2)²

= (0.01)² ×0.13 /(0.005)²

= 1.3 × 10^-5/(5 × 10^-3)²

= 1.3 × 10^-5/25 × 10^-6

= (1.3/25) 10^-5 × 10^6

= 0.052× 10

= 0.52m

Assume that each cubic centimeter of water has a mass of exactly 1.00 g. what is the mass of one cubic meter of water in kilogra
statuscvo [17]

The mass of one cubic meter of water in kilograms is 1 kg.

This is a conversions case. First, we must determine how many cubic centimeters there are in a cubic meter. We have 1000 of these after conversion.

This essentially indicates that 1000 units of water, each with a volume of one cubic centimeter, would have to combine before we could create a cubic meter of water.

Knowing that one cubic centimeter weighs one gram, 1000 cubic centimeters would weigh 1000 * 1, or 1000g, or one kilogram.

Thus, 1 cubic meters of water will weigh 1 * 1000g = 1000g, or just 1 kg.
