Describe the processes of fuel ignition and combustion?

1 answer:

7 0

Combustion, also known as burning, is the basic chemical process of releasing energy from a fuel and air mixture. In an internal combustion engine (ICE), the ignition and combustion of the fuel occurs within the engine itself. The engine then partially converts the energy from the combustion to work.

The radius of Earth is about 6450 km. A 7070 N spacecraft travels away from Earth. What is the weight of the spacecraft at a hei

Triss [41]

Answer:

(a) 1767.43 N

(b) 182.45 N

Explanation:

Radius of earth, R = 6450 km

Weight of person, W = 7070 N

mass of person, m = W / g = 7070 / 9.8 = 721.4 kg

(a) h = 6450 km

The value of acceleration due to gravity on height is given by

$g' = g\left ( \frac{R}{R+h} \right )^2$

$g' = g\left ( \frac{6450}{6450+6450} \right )^2$

g' = g / 4 = 9.8 / 4 = 2.45 m/s^2

The weight of the person at such height is

W' = m x g' = 721.4 x 2.45

W' = 1767.43 N

(b) h = 33700 km

The value of acceleration due to gravity on height is given by

$g' = g\left ( \frac{R}{R+h} \right )^2$

$g' = g\left ( \frac{6450}{6450+33700} \right )^2$

g' = g x 0.0258 = 9.8 x 0.0258 = 0.253 m/s^2

The weight of the person at such height is

W' = m x g'

W' = 721.4 x 0.253

W' = 182.45 N

How does emission spectra occur?

Lerok [7]

The frequencies of light that an atom can emit are dependent on states the electrons can be in. When excited, an electron moves to a higher energy level or orbital. When the electron falls back to its ground level the light is emitted.

Erase all the trajectories, and fire the pumpkin vertically again with an initial speed of 14 m/s. As you found earlier, the max

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

$\theta=39.49^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Maximum height of the pumpkin, $H_{max}=9.99\ m$

Initial speed, v = 22 m/s

We need to find the angle with which the pumpkin is fired. the maximum height of the projectile is given by :

$H_{max}=\dfrac{v^2\ sin^2\theta}{2g}$

On rearranging the above equation, to find the angle as :

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2gH_{max}}}{v})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 9.99}}{22})$

$\theta=39.49^{\circ}$

So, the angle with which the pumpkin is fired is 39.49 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.

a bicycle travels at a velocity of -2.33 m/s and has a displacement of -58.3 m. how much time did it take?

Alexandra [31]

We know that velocity is equal to the total displacement of an object over time.
$velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}$
Deriving from that equation, we can say that:
$t = \frac{d}{v}$
Okay, so here it goes:
$t = \frac{58.3m}{2.33 \frac{m}{s} } \\ t = 25.02s$
The bicycle took 25.02 seconds to displace at 58.3 meters.

What is the net force on this object f air = 400n (up) fgrav=600n (down)

n200080 [17]

Fnet=F1+F2 or Fnet=F1-F2
So 400n up - 600n down
Fnet= 400-600= -200N
