Answer:
(a) Heat transfer to the environment is: 1 MJ and (b) The efficiency of the engine is: 41.5%
Explanation:
Using the formula that relate heat and work from the thermodynamic theory as:
solving to Q_out we get:
this is the heat out of the cycle or engine, so it will be heat transfer to the environment. The thermal efficiency of a Carnot cycle gives us:
where T_Low is the lowest cycle temperature and T_High the highest, we need to remember that a Carnot cycle depends only on the absolute temperatures, if you remember the convertion of K=°C+273.15 so T_Low=150+273.15=423.15 K and T_High=450+273.15=723.15K and replacing the values in the equation we get:
Answer:
1.43 s
Explanation:
The time it takes for the container to reach the ground is determined only by the vertical motion of the container, which is a free-fall motion, so a uniformly accelerated motion with a constant acceleration of g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground.
The vertical distance covered by an object in free fall is given by

where
u = 0 is the initial vertical speed
t is the time
a= g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration
since u=0, it can be rewritten as

And substituting S=10.0 m, we can solve for t, to find the duration of the fall:

Answer:
it moves 25 inches.
Explanation:
the east west bit isn't important, ignore it. if an ant starts at 6 then moves to 19 then we need to subtract 19 from 6, that's 13. then it moves to 7. the difference between 19 and 7 is 12. add that to 13 and you get 25. it's important to remember that there is no such thing as negative distance. if it moved, then it counts.
Answer:
B) the change in momentum
Explanation:
Impulse is defined as the product between the force exerted on an object (F) and the contact time (
)

Using Newton's second law (F = ma), we can rewrite the force as product of mass (m) and acceleration (a):

However, the acceleration is the ratio between the change in velocity (
) and the contact time (
):
, so the previous equation becomes

And by simplifying
,

which corresponds to the change in momentum of the object.
Answer:
Because in order for work to be done on an object, the object must be moving. Why isn't work being done on a barbell when a weight lifter is holding the barbell over his head? Work is maximized when force is applied in the same direction that the object is moving. ... In order to do work faster, more_is required.
