Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

An engine is a highly organized device that converts a form of energy into another form of energy (usually mechanical energy). A heat engine is a device or an engine that converts heat (or thermal energy energy) into other useful forms of energy (usually mechanical energy). Examples of heat engine include steam engine, internal combustion engine. diesel engine among others.

30. The length of mercury thread when it is at 0°C, 100°C and at an unknown temperature 0 is 25mm, 225mm and 175mm respectively.
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

75°C

Explanation:

175−25/225−25=x−0/100−0

150/200=x/100

x=150×100/200

= 75°C

Please help me this is timed . <br> Find x if a = 3.0 m/s^2
storchak [24]

Answer:

x = 50 N

Explanation:

Given that we have a net force, a mass, and acceleration, we can use the fundamental formula for force found in newton's second law which is F = m × a.

Given a mass of 150 kg, and an acceleration 3.0m/s². We can substitute these two values in our formula to calculate the magnitude of these forces or it's net force to identify the unknown force acting on our known force for this situation to work.

_______

F (Net force) = F2 (Second force which we are given) - F1 (First force) = m × a

m (mass which we are given) = 150 kg

a (acceleration which we are given) = 3.0m/s

________

So F = m × a → F2 - F1 = m × a →

500 - F1 = 150 × 3.0 → 500 - F1 = 450 →

-F1 = -50 → F1 = 50

What affect would using a 12V car battery have on the operation of your circuit? (Do not try this.) What would happen to the cur
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Incomplete question

This is the completed question

If the resistor in the circuit had a larger resistance then the current would be then have to be proportionally smaller. Because the batteries each give off 1.5 volts then the current would have to be the variable that would change. What affect would using a 12V car battery have on the operation of your circuit? (Do not try this.) What would happen to the current? What would happen to the resistor?

Explanation:

Using ohms law as our basis

Ohms law state that, the voltage in an ohmic conductor is directly proportional to the current

V∝I

Resistance is the constant of proportionality

Then

V=iR

Since we want a relationship between current and resistance.

then, I=V/R

So, current is inversely proportional to Resistance

as the current increase the resistance reduce and as the current reduces the resistance increases.

a. So, increasing the voltage from 1.5V to 12V increases the current In the circuit because voltage Is directly proportional to I.

From ohms law

V=iR

When v =1.5V

I=1.5/R

When V increase to 12V

I=12/R

I.e, it increases by a factor of 8. Eight times it's initial value

b. Now, the resistance in the circuit is the constant of proportionality and it doesn't change in a given circuit expect when using a variable resistoa r like rheostat.

What frequency is received by the ambulance after reflecting from a wall near the person watching the oncoming ambulance (as in
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

900.48925 Hz

979.9785 Hz

Explanation:

v_a = Relative velocity of ambulance =109\ km/h=\dfrac{109}{3.6}

v_w = Velocity of wall = 0

v = Velocity of sound in air = 343 m/s

From doppler effect we have

f=f'\dfrac{v+v_w}{v-v_a}\\\Rightarrow f=821\dfrac{343+0}{343-\dfrac{109}{3.6}}\\\Rightarrow f=900.48925\ Hz

The frequency of sound is 900.48925 Hz

When the wall acts like a source

f=f'\dfrac{v+v_a}{v-v_w}\\\Rightarrow f=900.48925\dfrac{343+\dfrac{109}{3.6}}{343-0}\\\Rightarrow f=979.9785\ Hz

The frequency of sound is 979.9785 Hz
