initial speed of the racer is given as

v_i = 212 mi/h

v_i = 212*\frac{1609}{3600} = 94.75 m/s

after applied force the final speed is given as

v_f = 45 mi/h

v_f = 45 * \frac{1609}{3600} = 20.11 m/s

now during this speed change the racer will cover total distance 185 m

so here we will use kinematics

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

20.11^2 - 94.75^2 = 2*a*185

a = -23.2 m/s^2

now the force that chute will exert on the racer will be given as

F = ma

F = 898* 23.2

F = 2.1* 10^4 N

B) here following is the strategy for solving it

1. first we used kinematics to find the acceleration of the car

2. then we used Newton's II law (F = ma) to find the force

A heat engine performs (245 + A) J of work in each cycle while also delivering (142 + B) J of heat to the cold reservoir. Find t
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The value is \eta  =  54.4 \%

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The work input is  W = ( 245 + A ) \  J

     The heat delivered is Q =  (142 + B) \  J

      The value of A is  A =  14

        The value of B  is  B  = 72

Generally the efficiency of the heat engine is mathematically represented as

          \eta  =  \frac{W}{Q_t}

Here  Q_t is the total out energy produce by the heat engine and this is mathematically represented as

           Q_t= Q + W

=>         Q_t=  245 + A + 142 + B

=>         Q_t=  390 + A+B

So

               \eta  =  \frac{245 + A }{390 + A+ B}

=>          \eta  =  0.544

=>          \eta  =  0.544 *100

=>          \eta  =  54.4 \%

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 15 mm thick. The concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.65 and 0.30
beks73 [17]

Answer:

T=575.16K

Explanation:

To solve the problem we proceed to use the 1 law of diffusion of flow,

Here,

J=-D\frac{\Delta C}{\Delta x}

\Delta C is the rate in concentration

\Delta xis the rate in thickness

D is the diffusion coefficient, where,

D= D_0 exp(\frac{Q_d}{RT})

Replacing D in the first law,

J=-(D_0 exp(\frac{-Q_D}{RT}))\frac{\Delta }{\Delta x}

clearing T,

T=\frac{Q_d}{R*ln(\frac{J*\Delta x}{D_0*\Delta C})}

Replacing our values

T=-\frac{80000}{8.31*ln(\frac{(6.2*10^{-7})(-15*10^{-3})}{(1.43*10^{-9})(0.65-0.30)})}

T=-\frac{80000}{-138.09}

T=575.16K

There is the more role of the moon than the sun to occur tides in the oceans,why?
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The ocean tides on earth are caused by both the moon's gravity and the sun's gravity. ... Even though the sun is much more massive and therefore has stronger overall gravity than the moon, the moon is closer to the earth so that its gravitational gradient is stronger than that of the sun.

The volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its
Leni [432]

Answer: Charles's law

Explanation:

Charles's law is one of the gas laws, and it explains the effect of temperature changes on the volume of a given mass of gas at a constant pressure. Usually, the volume of a gas decreases as the temperature decreases and increases as the temperature also increases.

Mathematically, Charles's law can be expressed as:

V ∝ T

V = kT or (V/T) = k

where v is volume, T is temperature in Kelvin, and a k is a constant.
