Answer:

The efficiency of the engine is 59.2%.

Explanation:

We have,

Work done by the gasoline engine is 45 J and the for every 76 J of heat it takes in.

It is required to find the efficiency of the engine. Efficiency of the engine is given by the ratio of work done to the heat taken i. Its formula is given by :

\eta=\dfrac{W}{Q}\\\\\eta=\dfrac{45}{76}\\\\\eta=0.592\\\\\eta=59.2\%

So, the efficiency of the engine is 59.2%.

A coat rack weighs 65.0 lbs when it is filled with winter coats and 40.0 lbs when it is empty. The base of the coat rack has an
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

0.056 psi more pressure is exerted by filled coat rack than an empty coat rack.

Explanation:

First we find the pressure exerted by the rack without coat. So, for that purpose, we use formula:

P₁ = F/A

where,

P₁ = Pressure exerted by empty rack = ?

F = Force exerted by empty rack = Weight of Empty Rack = 40 lb

A = Base Area = 452.4 in²

Therefore,

P₁ = 40 lb/452.4 in²

P₁ = 0.088 psi

Now, we calculate the pressure exerted by the rack along with the coat.

P₂ = F/A

where,

P₂ = Pressure exerted by rack filled with coats= ?

F = Force exerted by filled rack = Weight of Filled Rack = 65 lb

A = Base Area = 452.4 in²

Therefore,

P₂ = 65 lb/452.4 in²

P₂ = 0.144 psi

Now, the difference between both pressures is:

ΔP = P₂ - P₁

ΔP = 0.144 psi - 0.088 psi

<u>ΔP = 0.056 psi</u>
