In an internal combustion engine, heat flow into a gas causes it to expand.
The application of direct force to specific parts of the engine will produce expansion of the high-temperature and high-pressure gases. Which will transform the chemical energy from the fuel (such as gasoline or oi) into mechanical energy.

Suppose that on earth you can throw a ball vertically upward a distance of 1.20 m. Given that the acceleration of gravity on the

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

7.04 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement on Earth = 1.2 m

a = Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = 1.67 m/s²

a = Acceleration due to gravity Earth= 9.81 m/s²

Accelration going up is considered as negetive

Initial Velocity of the ball

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2\times -9.81\times 1.2-0^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 1.2}\\\Rightarrow u=4.85\ m/s$
