Answer: e = 3.333% or 33 1/3%
                       ^
                  repeated

Identify the given information.
Work input (Wi)= 600 K
Work output (Wo) = 200 K

Choose which formula you should use. In this case, you are finding efficiency.
e =  (Wo/Wi) x 100%

Substitute and solve. 
e = (200 K/600 K) X 100%
e = 0.333 X 100%
e = 33.333% or 33 1/3%

Answer: If in you machine you put some heat X, the machine will return some work W and some heat Y. In this case, X = 600k and Y = 200k.

The efficiency of a machine is the ratio of heat transformed into work, so

E = W/X = 1 - Y/X = 1 - 200/600 = 1 - 1/3 = 0.66.

So the efficiency of the turbine is of the 66%

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time. The velocity of the first airplane is 650 m/h at a heading of 60.5 ◦ . The velo
Assoli18 [71]
First, illustrate the problem as shown in the attached picture. Next, let's find the distance traveled by planes A and B after 2.9 h.

Distance of A: 650 m/h * 2.9 h = 1,885 m
Distance of B: 560 m/h * 2.9 h = 1,624 m

Then, we use the cosine law to determine the distance x. The angle should be: 85 - 60.5 = 24.5°

x² = 1,885² + 1,624² - 2(1,885)(1,624)(cos 24.5°)
x = √619381.3183
<em>x = 787 m</em>

6. A football is kicked with an initial speed of 10.2 m/s at an angle of 40.00 above the horizontal. It lands on the ground 2.12
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

7.81 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

initial speed, u = 10.2 m/s

angle of inclination, θ = 40°

time, t = 2.12 s

Horizontal component of the velocity:

u_x = u cos \theta

u_x = 10.2\times cos 40^0

u_x = 7.81 m/s

In projectile motion horizontal component of the velocity remain same at every point because there is no acceleration.

So, Velocity at the Pinnacle is equal to 7.81 m/s
