Cars are the mechanical device which convert chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, the engine used in the automobiles car are very inefficient, they can only convert 30-40% of chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, since thermodynamics is the branch of science that deals with the conversion of energy, thus due to poor conversion rate of chemical energy into mechanical energy, cars are known as inefficient machine.
Gravity increased the downward speed (or decreases the upward speed) by 9.8 m/s every second.
21.2/9.8 = 2.2 seconds
<h2>
Answer: 12 s</h2>
Explanation:
The situation described here is parabolic movement. However, as we are told <u>the instrument is thrown upward</u> from the surface, we will only use the equations related to the Y axis.
In this sense, the main movement equation in the Y axis is:
(1)
Where:
is the instrument's final position
is the instrument's initial position
is the instrument's initial velocity
is the time the parabolic movement lasts
is the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of planet X.
As we know
and
when the object hits the ground, equation (1) is rewritten as:
(2)
Finding
:
(3)
(4)
(5)
Finally:

Answer:
I'm pretty sure it's 37.5 joules of energy
