Answer: smaller

LPK (Litre per kilometer) refers to amount of fuel in litres required per unit km by a car. In Europe, LPK number is used to specify the efficiency of a car. An efficient car would be the one which would consume less amount of fuel per kilometer run. Hence, a more efficient car would have smaller LPK number.

A more efficient car will have smaller LPK number.

Explanation

LPK number is the measure of liters of fuel consumed by the vehicle to travel one kilometer distance.

The LPK number that is liters per kilometer number is used in Europe to determine the efficiency of cars.

A car will be termed as efficient if it uses less amount of fuel for travelling a larger distance.

This indicates that car which has more mileage or in other word which consumes less quantity of fuel to travel longer distance is termed as efficient cars.

Thus , a more efficient car will have smaller LPK number.

drek231 [11]

Answer:

P₂ = 1.22 kPa

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using the equation of state:

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} =\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P₁ = initial pressure = 1 KPa

P₂ = final pressure = ?

V₁ = initial Volume = 1 liter

V₂ = final volume = 1.1 liter

T₁ = initial temperature = 290 k

T₂ = final temperature = 390 k

Therefore,

\frac{(1\ kPa)(1\ liter)}{290\ k} =\frac{(P_2)(1.1\ liter)}{390\ k}\\\\P_2= \frac{(1\ kPa)(1\ liter)(390\ k)}{(290\ k)(1.1\ liter)}

<u>P₂ = 1.22 kPa</u>

What is atomic theory and how has it changed over time?
vazorg [7]
<span>In chemistry and physics, the atomic theory explains how our understanding of the atom has changed over time. Atoms were once thought to be the smallest pieces of matter. The first idea of the atom came from the Greek philosopher Democritus. Hope I helped!!</span>

) Water falls from a height of 60m at the rate of 15kg/s to operate a turbine. The losses due to frictional force are 10% of ene
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

8100W

Explanation:

Let g = 10m/s2

As water is falling from 60m high, its potential energy from 60m high would convert to power. So the rate of change in potential energy is

P = \dot{E} = \dot{m}gh = 15*10*60 = 9000 J/s or 9000W

Since 10% of this is lost to friction, we take the remaining 90 %

P = 9000*90% = 8100 W

A baseball travels at a velocity of 45.3 m/s towards second base for 17 s. Calculate the displacement of the ball.
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

770.1 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity (v) = 45.3 m/s

Time (t) = 17 s

Displacement (d) =?

Velocity is defined according to the following formula:

Velocity = Displacement /Time

With the above formula, we can obtain the displacement of the ball as follow:

Velocity = Displacement /Time

45.3 = Displacement / 17

Cross multiply

Displacement = 45.3 × 17

Displacement = 770.1 m

Therefore the displacement of the ball is 770.1 m
