Answer: -8.5 × 10^-4 m/s

Explanation:

The following can be deduced from the question:

m₁ = Mass of a wrench = 4 g = 0.004 kg

v₁ =Speed of wrench = -15 m/s

m₂ = Mass of the Astronaut = 70 kg

The velocity will be calculated as:

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

v₂ = [0.004 × (-15)] / 70

= -8.5 × 10^-4 m/s

Therefore, the velocity is -8.5 × 10^-4 m/s

An internal combustion engine uses fuel, of energy content 44.4 MJ/kg, at a rate of 5 kg/h. If the efficiency is 28%, determine
Alika [10]
Efficiency =  Power Output / Power Input

Power Input = Rate of Energy input = 44.4 MJ/kg * 5 kg/h

 = 222 MJ/h

But 1 hour = 3600seconds

222 MJ/h = 222 MJ/3600s =  0.061667 MW              J/s = Watts

Power input = 0.061667 MW = 61 667 W

From  Efficiency =  Power Output / Power Input

   28% =  Power Output / 61667

   Power Output = 0.28 * 61667

   Power Output = 17266.76 W

    Power Output ≈ 17 267 W

   Rate of heat rejection = Power Input - Power Output

                                   =  61667 - 17267 = 44400 W

   Rate of heat rejection = 44 400W.

A 60 W bulb is supplied with 36 000 j of energy how long is the bulb on for
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Time = 600 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Power = 60W

Energy = 36000

To find the time;

Energy = power * time

Substituting into the equation, we have;

36000 = 60 * time

Time = 36000/60

Time = 600 seconds.

Therefore, the bulb was on for 600 seconds.
