Answer You need to consider that the gravity on earth is 9.8 m/s/s. This means any object you let go on the earths surface will gain 9.8 m/s of speed every second. You need to apply a force on the object in the opposite direction to avoid this acceleration. If you are pushing something up at a constant speed, you are just resisting earths acceleration. The more massive and object is, the greater force is needed to accelerate it. The equation is Force = mass*acceleration. So for a 2kg object in a 9.8 m/s/s gravity you need 2kg*9.8m/s/s = 19.6 Newtons to counteract gravity. Work or energy = force * distance. So to push with 19.6 N over a distance of 2 meters = 19.6 N*2 m = 39.2 Joules of energy. There is an equation that puts together those two equations I just used and it is E = mgh
The amount of Energy to lift an object is (mass) * (acceleration due to gravity) * (height)
:Hence, the Work done to life the mass of 2 kg to a height of 10 m is 196 J. Hope it helps❤️❤️❤️
Explanation:
One of the concepts to be used to solve this problem is that of thermal efficiency, that is, that coefficient or dimensionless ratio calculated as the ratio of the energy produced and the energy supplied to the machine.
From the temperature the value is given as

Where,
T_L = Cold focus temperature
T_H = Hot spot temperature
Our values are given as,
T_L = 20\° C = (20+273) K = 293 K
T_H = 440\° C = (440+273) K = 713 K
Replacing we have,



Therefore the maximum possible efficiency the car can have is 58.9%
In an extremely simplified explanation,
What happens is that the steam (heat) that is generated by the burning of coal is used to rotate the motor of the steam engine.
No because it will contain the same amount of mass, just in different forms.
