Suppose a miracle car has a 100% efficient engine and burns fuel having an energy content of 40 MJ/L. If the air resistance and

overall frictional forces on this car traveling at highway speeds is 1000 N, what is the overall limit in distance per liter driven on the highway?

Answer:

Distance traveled in 1 liter = 40 km

Explanation:

Distance traveled = Energy / Opposing force = 40 x 10^6 J / 1000 N = 40000 m or 40 km

So, the car will moves to a distance of 40 km per liter under the opposing force of 1000 N…

A satellite is launched to orbit the Earth at an altitude of 2.90 x10^7 m for use in the Global Positioning System (GPS). Take t

marin [14]

Answer:

$T=66262.4s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Altitude $A=2.90 *10^7$

Mass $m=5.97 * 10^{24} kg$

Radius $r=6.38 *10^6 m.$

Generally the equation for Satellite Speed is mathematically given by

$V=(\frac{GM}{d} )^{0.5}$

$V=(\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*5.97 * 10^{24}}{6.38 *10^6+2.90 *10^7} )^{0.5}$

$V=3354.83m/s$

Therefore

Period T is Given as

$T=\frac{2 \pi *a}{V}$

$T=\frac{2 \pi *(6.38 *10^6+2.90 *10^7}{3354.83}$

$T=66262.4s$

A war wolf is a device used during the middle ages to assault fortifications with large rocks. A simple trebuchet is constructed

Katarina [22]

Answer:v=41.23 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of heavy object $m_1=52 kg$

distance of $m_1$ from the axle $r_1=14 cm$

mass of rock $m_2=123 gm$

Length of rod $=4.1 m$

distance of $m_2$ from axle $r_2=4.1-0.14=3.96 m$

Net torque acting is

$T_{net}=m_1gr_1-m_2gr_2$

$T_{net}=52\times 0.14\times g-0.123\times 3.96\times g$

$T_{net}=6.793\times 9.8$

$T_{net}=66.57 N-m$

Work done by $T_{net}$ is converted to rock kinetic Energy

thus

$T_{net}\times \theta =\frac{mv^2}{2}$

Where $\theta =angle\ turned =\frac{\pi }{2}$

$v= velocity\ at\ launch$

$66.57\times \frac{\pi }{2}=\frac{0.123\times v^2}{2}$

$v^2=66.57\times \pi$

$v=\sqrt{1700.511}$

$v=41.23 m/s$

What type of eclipse is shown? How do you know?

Sonja [21]

That is a lunar eclipse. At night, when the Earth is between the Sun and the moon, the moon would appear to be red. Just for future reference, a solar eclipse is when the Moon is between the Sun and Earth. Speaking of which, check out the solar eclipse this August!
