The correct answer is C) towards the center of the circle.
Although the object is moving at a constant speed it is constantly accelerating due to the constant change in direction as it describes the circular path. This causes a constant change in velocity as velocity is a vector quantity.
For the object to maintain the circular path there has to be centripetal force acting on the object and this centripetal force is directed towards the center of the circle.
Answer:
the claim is not valid or reasonable.
Explanation:
In order to test the claim we will find the maximum and actual efficiencies. maximum efficiency of a heat engine can be found as:
η(max) = 1 - T₁/T₂
where,
η(max) = maximum efficiency = ?
T₁ = Sink Temperature = 300 K
T₂ = Source Temperature = 400 K
Therefore,
η(max) = 1 - 300 K/400 K
η(max) = 0.25 = 25%
Now, we calculate the actual frequency of the engine:
η = W/Q
where,
W = Net Work = 250 KJ
Q = Heat Received = 750 KJ
Therefore,
η = 250 KJ/750 KJ
η = 0.333 = 33.3 %
η > η(max)
The actual efficiency of a heat engine can never be greater than its Carnot efficiency or the maximum efficiency.
<u>Therefore, the claim is not valid or reasonable.</u>
Answer:
It is found that W1 - W2 loss in weight of solid when immersed in water is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the body. This verifies Archimedes' principle.
Answer:
A. W = 6875.0 J.
B. W = -14264.6 J.
Explanation:
A. The work done by the rider can be calculated by using the following equation:

Where:
: is the force done by the rider = 25 N
d: is the distance = 275 m
θ: is the angle between the applied force and the distance
Since the applied force is in the same direction of the motion, the angle is zero.

Hence, the rider does a work of 6875.0 J on the bike.
B. The work done by the force of gravity on the bike is the following:
The force of gravity is given by the weight of the bike.
And the angle between the force of gravity and the direction of motion is 180°.
The minus sign is because the force of gravity is in the opposite direction to the motion direction.
Therefore, the magnitude of the work done by the force of gravity on the bike is 14264.6 J.

From the calculations, the power expended is 43650 W.
<h3>What is the power expended?</h3>
Now we can find the acceleration from;
v = u + at
u = 0 m/s
v = 95 km/h or 26.4 m/s
t = 6.8 s
a = ?
Now
v = at
a = v/t
a = 26.4 m/s/ 6.8 s
a = 3.88 m/s^2
Force = ma = 850-kg * 3.88 m/s^2 = 3298 N
The distance covered is obtained from;
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
v^2 = 2as
s = v^2/2a
s = (26.4)^2/2 * 3.88
s = 696.96/7.76
s = 90 m
Now;
Work = Fs
Work = 3298 N * 90 m = 296820 J
Power = 296820 J/ 6.8 s
= 43650 W
