Answer:

76 seconds

Explanation:

Using the formula t=vf-vo/a, where t=time, vf= final velocity, v0= initial velocity, and a= acceleration, we can solve for your problem.

Plug in known variables...

t=200-10/a

we can solve for a by using the formula F=ma where f=force, m= mass, and a=acceleration and rearranging it to solve for a.

a=F/m

Plug in known variables...

a=250N/100kg

a=2.5m/s^2

Plug in our newly found acceleration of 2.5 m/s^2 into our first equation and solve....

t=190/2.5

t=76 seconds

A Carnot engine operates with an efficiency of 26.0% when the temperature of its cold reservoir is 281 K. Assuming that the temp

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%

Explanation:

In first case we have given efficiency of Carnot engine = 26 % = 0.26

Temperature of cold reservoir $T_L=281K$

We know that efficiency of Carnot engine is given by

$\eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}$

$0.26 =1-\frac{281}{T_H}$

$T_H=379.72K$

For second Carnot engine efficiency is given as 35% = 0.35

And temperature of hot reservoir is same so $T_H=379.72K$

So $0.35=1-\frac{T_L}{379.72}$

$T_L=246.818K$

So the temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%

A baseball pitcher throws the ball towards the batter at 90 mph. His bat connects with the ball for a line drive, after which th

forsale [732]

Answer:

$F=-18412.9N$ , where the minus indicates the direction is opposite to that of the throw.

Explanation:

Since MKS stands for meter-kilogram-second and we know that:

$1\ hour = 3600\ seconds$

$1\ mile = 1600\ meters$

$1000g = 1kg$

We can write that:

$\frac{1\ hour}{3600\ seconds}=1$

$\frac{1600\ meters}{1\ mile}=1$

$\frac{1kg}{1000g}=1$

These are conversion factors, equal to 1, so multiplying our results by them won't change their value, only their units.

So we have that:

$90 mph=90 \frac{miles}{hour}(\frac{1\ hour}{3600\ seconds})(\frac{1600\ meters}{1\ mile})=40m/s$

$110 mph=110 \frac{miles}{hour}(\frac{1\ hour}{3600\ seconds})(\frac{1600\ meters}{1\ mile})=48.89m/s$

$145 g=145 g(\frac{1kg}{1000g})=0.145kg$

Newton's 2nd Law tells us that F=ma, and the definition of acceleration is $a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$ , so we have:

$F=m\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=m\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

Taking the throw direction as the positive one, for our values we have:

$F=m\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}=(0.145kg)\frac{(-48.89m/s)-(+40m/s)}{0.0007s}=-18412.9N$

Paolo says that his bicycle is hard to pedal.Mia looks at the bicycle and tells him he needs to oil the chain.explain why oiling

laila [671]

Answer:

Less friction

Explanation:

Paolo's bike is too difficult to pedal because there is too much friction in the mechanisms of the bike. To reduce friction, Paolo must oil the chain. This will make the bike run much more smoothly and allow for easier pedalling.
