Since this is a distance/time graph, the speed at any time is the slope
of the part of the graph that's directly over that time on the x-axis.
At time t1 = 2.0 s
That's in the middle of the first segment of the graph,
that extends from zero to 3 seconds.
Its slope is 7/3 . v1 = 7/3 m/s .
At time t2 = 4.0 s
That's in the middle of the horizontal part of the graph
that runs from 3 to 6 seconds.
Its slope is zero.
v2 = zero .
At time t3 = 13 s.
That's in the middle of the part of the graph that's sloping down,
between 11 and 16 seconds.
Its slope is -3/5 . v3 = -0.6 m/s .
Answer:
The value is 
or 21.45%
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The first reservoir is at steam point 
The second reservoir is at room temperature 
Generally the maximum theoretical efficiency of a Carnot engine is mathematically evaluated as

Answer:
The BOD concentration 50 km downstream when the velocity of the river is 15 km/day is 63.5 mg/L
Explanation:
Let the initial concentration of the BOD = C₀
Concentration of BOD at any time or point = C
dC/dt = - KC
∫ dC/C = -k ∫ dt
Integrating the left hand side from C₀ to C and the right hand side from 0 to t
In (C/C₀) = -kt + b (b = constant of integration)
At t = 0, C = C₀
In 1 = 0 + b
b = 0
In (C/C₀) = - kt
(C/C₀) = e⁻ᵏᵗ
C = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ
C₀ = 75 mg/L
k = 0.05 /day
C = 75 e⁻⁰•⁰⁵ᵗ
So, we need the BOD concentration 50 km downstream when the velocity of the river is 15 km/day
We calculate how many days it takes the river to reach 50 km downstream
Velocity = (displacement/time)
15 = 50/t
t = 50/15 = 3.3333 days
So, we need the C that corresponds to t = 3.3333 days
C = 75 e⁻⁰•⁰⁵ᵗ
0.05 t = 0.05 × 3.333 = 0.167
C = 75 e⁻⁰•¹⁶⁷
C = 63.5 mg/L
Answer:
(C) length / height of the plane
Explanation:
The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane can be determined using different variables. In this case, the geometry of the setup is relevant. The advantage is proportional to the length of the plane, and inversely proportional to the height: it is the ratio (length) / (height) of the plane. For example, given a desired, fixed height, a long inclined plane gives you a bigger mechanical advantage than a short inclined plane. In this example, pushing an object up the long plane will require a smaller force, than it would on the short plane.
Strictly speaking, (D) would also "allow you to determine the mechanical advantage" because you could simply invert the ratio listed under (D). However, (C) is the best, direct, answer.
