Answer:

the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that;

The terminal velocity is proportional to the square root of weight.

v ∝ √W

v = k√W

the proportionality constant depends upon the surface area and the density of the medium (like air). The coffee filters can be stacked such that the resulting area is roughly unchanged. So, the constant of proportionality k is also unchanged

v/√W = constant

v₂/√W₂ = v₁/√W₁

v₂ = v₁√(W₂ / W₁ )

given that;

v₁ = 0.856 m/s,

W₂ = 14W₁; meaning 14 coffee filters have 14 times the weight of a single coffee filter

so we substitute

v₂ = 0.856 √(14W₁  / W₁ )

v₂  = 0.856 √( 14( W₁/W₁)

v₂  = 0.856 √( 14(1)

v₂  = 0.856 √( 14 )

v₂  = 0.856 × 3.741657

v₂  = 3.2 m/s

Therefore, the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s

A particular electric car is supplied with 300 kJ of chemical energy by the battery. Of this, a total of 70.5 kJ of energy is wa
Lorico [155]

Supplied energy=300kJ

  • Wasted energy=70.5J

Used energy:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto 300-70.5=229.5kJ

We know

\boxed{\sf Efficiency=\dfrac{Used\:Energy}{Supplied\:Energy}\times 100}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Efficiency=\dfrac{229.5}{300}\times 100

\\ \sf\longmapsto Efficiency=\dfrac{229.5}{3}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Efficiency=76.5\%
