The engine efficiency is 64.73 %

Explanation:

Given data

To find the engine’s efficiency we have the formula,

Energy input- 4565 KJ

Energy output - 2955KJ

Efficiency= energy output/ energy input ×100%

=2955/4565

=0.6473 ×100

η =64.73 %

The engine efficiency is 64.73 %

Dolphins emit clicks of sound for communication and echolocation. A marine biologist is monitoring a dolphin swimming in seawate

LenKa [72]

Answer:

12.64968 Hz

Explanation:

v = Velocity of sound in seawater = 1522 m/s

u = Velocity of dolphin = 7.2 m/s

f' = Actual frequency = 2674 Hz

From Doppler effect we get the relation

$f=f'\frac{v-u}{v}\\\Rightarrow f=2674\frac{1522-7.2}{1522}\\\Rightarrow f=2661.35032\ Hz$

The frequency that will be received is 2661.35032 Hz

The difference in the frequency will be

$2674-2661.35032=12.64968\ Hz$

Why is the gravitational potential energy of an object 1 meter above the moon’s surface less than its potential energy 1 meter a

dsp73

Potential energy relative to the surface is

(mass) x (acceleration due to gravity) x (height above the surface).

At 1.0 meter above the surface, that is

 (mass) x (acceleration due to gravity) x (1.0 meter) .

The object's mass doesn't change, so the only thing that has any effect
on its potential energy at 1 meter above the surface is the acceleration
of gravity or, in other words, the surface of what ?
