Physics

Marat540 [252]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

All the energy in oil, gas, and coal originally came from the sun, captured through photosynthesis.for example when  we burn wood to release energy that trees capture from the sun, we burn fossil fuels to release the energy that ancient plants captured from the sun. We can think of this energy as having been deposited in a natural solar power bank over millions of years.

So, in one sense, gasoline-burning cars, coal-burning power plants, and homes heated by natural gas are all solar powered!

A jet engine gets its thrust by taking in air, heating and compressing it, and
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

F=ma=20\ Kg\ 400\ m/s^2=8,000\ Nw

Explanation:

Thrust is known as a reaction force which appears when a system expels or accelerates mass in one specific direction. If we know the acceleration and the mass of the air expelled by the jet engine, we can compute the thrust .

The acceleration is calculated by using the dynamics formula

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

The values are  

v_f=500\ m/s,\ v_o=100\ m/s,\ t=1\ sec

\displaystyle a=\frac{500-100}{1}=400\ m/s^2

The thrust is

F=ma=20\ Kg\ 400\ m/s^2=8,000\ Nw

jasenka [17]

Answer:

5 kg

Explanation:

Acceleration = 6 m/s^2

Force = 30 N

Force = mass * acceleration

mass = force / acceleration

mass = 30 / 6

mass = 5 kg
