Answer:

It is an SI unit

Explanation:

The metre is defined as the length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum in 1299 792 458 of a second. The metre was originally defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole

Finger [1]

Answer:

The distance from the North Pole to the equator is 1*10^{7}m.

Explanation:

Circumference of Earth = 40,000 km    ......................(1)

Distance from the North Pole to the Equator is =  1/4th of the Circumference of Earth  ......................  (2)

Let Distance from the North Pole to the Equator be  d ,

the equation formed will be ,

d = 1/4 * Circumference of Earth       ........(3)......... ( from equation 1 )

put the value of Circumference of Earth in equation (3),

d = 1/4 * 40,000  km

d = 10,000 km

converting km to m ,

d = 10,000 * 10^{3} m

d =  1 * 10^{7} m

The distance from the North Pole to the equator is 1*10^{7}m.

6–23 an automobile engine consumes fuel at a rate of 22 l/h and delivers 55 kw of power to the wheels. if the fuel has a heating
Anna007 [38]

Explanation & answer:

Given:

Fuel consumption, C = 22 L/h

Specific gravity = 0.8

output power, P  =  55 kW

heating value, H = 44,000 kJ/kg

Solution:

Calculate energy intake

E = C*P*H

= (22 L/h) / (3600 s/h) * (1000 mL/L) * (0.8 g/mL) * (44000 kJ/kg)

= (22/3600)*1000*0.8*44000 j/s

= 215111.1 j/s

Calculate output power

P = 55 kW

= 55000 j/s

Efficiency

= output / input

= P/E

=55000 / 215111.1

= 0.2557

= 25.6% to 1 decimal place.
