If you put 300 J of heat into an engine with an efficiency of 0.35, how much work can be done? 3. How much energy must be put into an engine with an efficiency of 0.6 if 270 J of work are required? 4. An engine with an efficiency of 0.425 uses 1200 J of energy. Find the amount of energy wasted by the engine. 5. Calculate the efficiency of an engine operating between temperatures of 258 K and 600 K 6. An engine runs with its exhaust (cold) reservoir at a temperature of 200 K. To what temperature should the input (hot) temperature be set if an efficiency of 0.8 is desired? 7.

As an ice cube melts, its molecules
fomenos

Answer:

A. absorb heat energy and move farther apart

Explanation:

The answer is A since when a ice cube takes in heat, it changes form and melts down to a liquid : water.

The molecules in water are farther apart since they are moving around alot but can be contained in a container.

How do you find the weight of an object when given the mass and acceleration?
murzikaleks [220]

Weight of an object is given by the formula W = m x g , where

m : mass of the object

g : gravitational acceleration

It is <u>independent of the horizontal </u><u>acceleration</u>.  

<h3>What do we mean by weight of an object?</h3>

Weight is a gauge of how strongly gravity is<u> pulling something down.</u> It is dependent on the object's mass, or how much matter it consists of. It also depends on the <u>object's uniformly distributed</u> downward acceleration caused by gravity.

This equation can be used to express weight:

 W = m x g

<h3>What is the difference between weight and mass of an object?</h3>

In everyday speech, the phrases "mass" and "weight" are frequently used interchangeably; nevertheless, the two concepts don't have the same meaning. In contrast to weight, which is a <u>measurement of</u> how the <u>force</u> of gravity works upon a mass, mass is the <u>amount of substance</u> in a material.

Three identical resistors are connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance increases by 630 when one resistor is removed and
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

each resistor is 540 Ω

Explanation:

Let's assign the letter R to the resistance of the three resistors involved in this problem. So, to start with, the three resistors are placed in parallel, which results in an equivalent resistance R_e defined by the formula:

\frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{1}{R} } +\frac{1}{R} } +\frac{1}{R} \\\frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{3}{R} \\R_e=\frac{R}{3}

Therefore, R/3 is the equivalent resistance of the initial circuit.

In the second circuit, two of the resistors are in parallel, so they are equivalent to:

\frac{1}{R'_e}=\frac{1}{R} +\frac{1}{R}\\\frac{1}{R'_e}=\frac{2}{R} \\R'_e=\frac{R}{2} \\

and when this is combined with the third resistor in series, the equivalent resistance (R''_e) of this new circuit becomes the addition of the above calculated resistance plus the resistor R (because these are connected in series):

R''_e=R'_e+R\\R''_e=\frac{R}{2} +R\\R''_e=\frac{3R}{2}

The problem states that the difference between the equivalent resistances in both circuits is given by:

R''_e=R_e+630 \,\Omega

so, we can replace our found values for the equivalent resistors (which are both in terms of R) and solve for R in this last equation:

\frac{3R}{2} =\frac{R}{3} +630\,\Omega\\\frac{3R}{2} -\frac{R}{3} = 630\,\Omega\\\frac{7R}{6} = 630\,\Omega\\\\R=\frac{6}{7} *630\,\Omega\\R=540\,\Omega

Help on finding kinetic energy??
Jobisdone [24]
Trick question? In order to have kinetic energy, an object must be moving. Therefore, in this case, kinetic energy would be 0. If it were asking about potential energy, it would be a different story.

A uranium nucleus is traveling at 0.94 c in the positive direction relative to the laboratory when it suddenly splits into two p
Anettt [7]

Answer:

A   u = 0.36c      B u = 0.961c

Explanation:

In special relativity the transformation of velocities is carried out using the Lorentz equations, if the movement in the x direction remains

     u ’= (u-v) / (1- uv / c²)

Where u’ is the speed with respect to the mobile system, in this case the initial nucleus of uranium, u the speed with respect to the fixed system (the observer in the laboratory) and v the speed of the mobile system with respect to the laboratory

The data give is u ’= 0.43c and the initial core velocity v = 0.94c

Let's clear the speed with respect to the observer (u)

      u’ (1- u v / c²) = u -v

      u + u ’uv / c² = v - u’

      u (1 + u ’v / c²) = v - u’

      u = (v-u ’) / (1+ u’ v / c²)

Let's calculate

      u = (0.94 c - 0.43c) / (1+ 0.43c 0.94 c / c²)

      u = 0.51c / (1 + 0.4042)

      u = 0.36c

We repeat the calculation for the other piece

In this case u ’= - 0.35c

We calculate

       u = (0.94c + 0.35c) / (1 - 0.35c 0.94c / c²)

       u = 1.29c / (1- 0.329)

       u = 0.961c
