More force is needed for more mass. Therefore, if the mass is greater and the force is not enough then the object will less likely accelerate
Answer: a) vcar= 7 m/s ; b) a train= 0.65 m/s^2
Explanation: By using the kinematic equation for the car and the train we can determine the above values of the car velocity and the acceletarion of the train, respectively.
We have for the car
distance = v car* t, considering the length of train (81.1 m) travel by the car during the first 11.6 s
the v car = distance/time= 81.1 m/11.6s= 7 m/s
In order to calculate the acceleration we have to use the kinematic equation for the train from the rest
distance train = (a* t^2)/2
distance train : distance travel by the car at constant speed
so distance train= (vcar*36.35)m=421 m
the a traiin= (2* 421 m)/(36s)^2=0.65 m/s^2
Answer:
The efficiency is 0.33, or 33%.
Explanation:
From the thermodynamics equations, we know that the formula for the efficiency of a heat engine is:
Where η is the efficiency of the engine, Q_1 is the heat energy taken from the hot source and Q_2 is the heat energy given to the cold object. So, plugging the given values in the formula, we obtain:
This means that the efficiency of the heat engine is 0.33, or 33% (The efficiency of an engine is dimensionless).
the International System of Units, the fundamental units are: The meter (symbol: m), used to measure length. The kilogram (symbol: kg), used to measure mass. The second (symbol: s), used to measure time. The ampere (symbol: A), used to measure electric current.
