Answer:
0m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity of the boat = 8m/s
Final velocity = 8m/s
Time taken = 4s
Unknown:
Acceleration of the boat = ?
Solution:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
It is mathematically expressed as;
A =
A is the acceleration
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
Insert the parameters and solve;
A =
= 0m/s²
One of the concepts to be used to solve this problem is that of thermal efficiency, that is, that coefficient or dimensionless ratio calculated as the ratio of the energy produced and the energy supplied to the machine.
From the temperature the value is given as

Where,
T_L = Cold focus temperature
T_H = Hot spot temperature
Our values are given as,
T_L = 20\° C = (20+273) K = 293 K
T_H = 440\° C = (440+273) K = 713 K
Replacing we have,



Therefore the maximum possible efficiency the car can have is 58.9%
Answer:
a) 1.3 rad/s
b) 0.722 s
Explanation:
Given
Initial velocity, ω = 0 rad/s
Angular acceleration of the wheel, α = 1.8 rad/s²
using equations of angular motion, we have
θ2 - θ1 = ω(0)[t2 - t1] + 1/2α(t2 - t1)²
where
θ2 - θ1 = 53.2 rad
t2 - t1 = 7s
substituting these in the equation, we have
θ2 - θ1 = ω(0)[t2 - t1] + 1/2α(t2 - t1)²
53.2 =ω(0) * 7 + 1/2 * 1.8 * 7²
53.2 = 7.ω(0) + 1/2 * 1.8 * 49
53.2 = 7.ω(0) + 44.1
7.ω(0) = 53.2 - 44.1
ω(0) = 9.1 / 7
ω(0) = 1.3 rad/s
Using another of the equations of angular motion, we have
ω(0) = ω(i) + α*t1
1.3 = 0 + 1.8 * t1
1.3 = 1.8 * t1
t1 = 1.3/1.8
t1 = 0.722 s
