Suppose that a nascar race car is moving to the right with a constant velocity of +86 m/s. What is the average acceleration of t
Stels [109]

(a) As the car is moving with constant velocity, it means the rate change of velocity does not change, therefore the average acceleration of the car is zero.

Thus, there is no acceleration, when velocity is constant.

(b) Average acceleration,

a =\frac{ v-u}{\Delta t}

Here, v is final velocity and u is the initial velocity and \Delta t is the time interval.

As twelve seconds later, the car is halfway around the track and traveling in the opposite direction with the same speed, therefore

a =\frac{ -86 \ m/s-86 \ m/s }{12 \ s} = - 14 .3 \ m/s^2

Thus, the average acceleration of the car is 14 .3 \ m/s^2 in the direction to the left.

3. An engine’s fuel is heated to 2,000 K and the surrounding air is 300 K. Calculate the ideal efficiency of the engine. Hint: T
maksim [4K]

Answer: E = 0.85

Therefore the efficiency is: E = 0.85 or 85%

Explanation:

The efficiency (e) of a Carnot engine is defined as the ratio of the work (W) done by the engine to the input heat QH

E = W/QH.

W=QH – QC,

Where Qc is the output heat.

That is,

E=1 - Qc/QH

E =1 - Tc/TH

where Tc for a temperature of the cold reservoir and TH for a temperature of the hot reservoir.

Note: The unit of temperature must be in Kelvin.

Tc = 300K

TH = 2000K

Substituting the values of E, we have;

E = 1 - 300K/2000K

E = 1 - 0.15

E = 0.85

Therefore the efficiency is: E = 0.85 or 85%

How does a laser work?
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

A laser is created when the electrons in atoms in special glasses, crystals, or gases absorb energy from an electrical current or another laser and become “excited.” The excited electrons move from a lower-energy orbit to a higher-energy orbit around the atom's nucleus.
