PE = mgh, g= 9.8 m/s^2
10 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 300 m
= 29400 J

6–23 an automobile engine consumes fuel at a rate of 22 l/h and delivers 55 kw of power to the wheels. if the fuel has a heating

Anna007 [38]

Explanation & answer:

Given:

Fuel consumption, C = 22 L/h

Specific gravity = 0.8

output power, P = 55 kW

heating value, H = 44,000 kJ/kg

Solution:

Calculate energy intake

E = C*P*H

= (22 L/h) / (3600 s/h) * (1000 mL/L) * (0.8 g/mL) * (44000 kJ/kg)

= (22/3600)*1000*0.8*44000 j/s

= 215111.1 j/s

Calculate output power

P = 55 kW

= 55000 j/s

Efficiency

= output / input

= P/E

=55000 / 215111.1

= 0.2557

= 25.6% to 1 decimal place.

Which is present when iodine changes from brown to blue or purple?

vladimir1956 [14]

If iodine is added to a starch solution, they react with each other and the iodine darkens to an almost pitch black.

however, if iodine is added to a solution containing no starch, it will show up only as an extremely pale brown. almost colorless and hardly visible.

when following the changes in some inorganic oxidation reduction reactions, iodine may be used as an indicator to follow the changes of iodide ion and iodine element. soluble starch solution is added. only iodine element in the presence of iodide ion will give the characteristic blue black color. neither iodine element alone nor iodide ions alone will give the color result.

hope this answer really helps your question :)

Calculate the critical angle for light going from Glycerine to air.

Georgia [21]

The refractive index for glycerine is $n_g=1.473$ , while for air it is $n_a = 1.00$ .

When the light travels from a medium with greater refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, there is a critical angle over which there is no refraction, but all the light is reflected. This critical angle is given by:
$\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} )$
where n1 and n2 are the refractive indices of the two mediums. If we susbtitute the refractive index of glycerine and air in the formula, we find the critical angle for this case:
$\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{1.00}{1.473} )=42.8^{\circ}$
