DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

The net force on the potatoes is given by:

F= 52 - mgSintheta

F= 52- (2×9.8× Sin70°)

F = 52 -18.4

F= 33.58N

Using Newton's 2nd law

F = ma

a=F/m = 33.58/ 2 = 16.79m/s^2

Using the equation of motion:

V^2= u^2 + 2as

V^2 = 0 + 2× 16.79 x2

V^2 = 67.16

V=sqrt(68.16)

V= 8.195m/s This is the exit velocity of the potatoes

Kinetic energy, K.E = 1/2mv^2

KE= 1/2 × 2 × 8.195^2

KE = 67.16J

An ice-making machine inside a refrigerator operates in a Carnot cycle. It takes heat from liquid water at 0.0 ∘C and rejects he
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

2.36 x 10^6 J

Explanation:

Tc = 0°C = 273 K

TH = 22.5°C = 295.5 K

Qc = heat used to melt the ice

mass of ice, m = 85.7 Kg

Latent heat of fusion, L = 3.34 x 10^5 J/kg

Let Energy supplied is E which is equal to the work done

Qc = m x L = 85.7 x 3.34 x 10^5 =  286.24 x 10^5 J

Use the Carnot's equation

\frac{Q_{H}}{Q_{c}}=\frac{T_{H}}{T_{c}}

Q_{H}=286.24\times 10^{5}\times \frac{295.5}{273}

QH = 309.8 x 10^5 J

W = QH - Qc

W = (309.8 - 286.24) x 10^5

W = 23.56 x 10^5 J

W = 2.36 x 10^6 J

Thus, the energy supplied is 2.36 x 10^6 J.

Which of the following is not one of the observed characteristics of our solar system?
Sindrei [870]
<span>The characteristic not observed is the sun and planets rotate in the same direction. The planets in the solar system go around the sun. The sun is in a fixed position relative to planets. The time one planet takes to go around the sun is a year on that planet. the suns gravity keeps the solar system together and th planets revolving aroud it </span>
