A VW beetle goes from zero to 27m/s in 7.6 seconds. What is the acceleration?

Physics
1 answer:
Firlakuza [10]3 years ago
7 0
Initial speed(u)=0m/s
Final speed(v)= 27m/s
Time(t)=7.6s
Use the equation of motion: v = u + at
27 = 0 + a(7.6)
27/7.6 = a
a = 3.55 m/s^2  (3 s.f)

A heat engine accepts 200,000 Btu of heat from a source at 1500 R and rejects 100,000 Btu of heat to a sink at 600 R. Calculate
diamong [38]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of energy through the heat transferred and the work done, as well as through the calculation of entropy due to heat and temperatra.

By definition we know that the change in entropy is given by

\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T}

Where,

Q = Heat transfer

T = Temperature

On the other hand we know that by conserving energy the work done in a system is equal to the change in heat transferred, that is

W = Q_{source}-Q_{sink}

According to the data given we have to,

Q_{source} = 200000Btu

T_{source} = 1500R

Q_{sink} = 100000Btu

T_{sink} = 600R

PART A) The total change in entropy, would be given by the changes that exist in the source and sink, that is

\Delta S_{sink} = \frac{Q_{sink}}{T_{sink}}

\Delta S_{sink} = \frac{100000}{600}

\Delta S_{sink} = 166.67Btu/R

On the other hand,

\Delta S_{source} = \frac{Q_{source}}{T_{source}}

\Delta S_{source} = \frac{-200000}{1500}

\Delta S_{source} = -133.33Btu/R

The total change of entropy would be,

S = \Delta S_{source}+\Delta S_{sink}

S = -133.33+166.67

S = 33.34Btu/R

Since S\neq   0 the heat engine is not reversible.

PART B)

Work done by heat engine is given by

W=Q_{source}-Q_{sink}

W = 200000-100000

W = 100000 Btu

Therefore the work in the system is 100000Btu

What is the relationship between speed and kinetic energy?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Kinetic energy depends on the velocity of the object squared. This means that when the velocity of an object doubles, its kinetic energy quadruples.

(1) In nondestructive testing, a discontinuity may be defined as an interruption in the normal physical structure or configurati
QveST [7]

Answer: BOTH ARE TRUE

Explanation: Nondestructive testing or Evaluation is a term used in the field of science and technology to describe the evaluations, analysis or testing carried out on components of materials without destroying any part or components of the test materials. It is very useful in scientific research or industrial engineering environments. When any disruption of physical structure or configuration of a component will lead to discontinuing of the test, and it may not affect the usefulness of the affected parts.
