Answer:

let us use the expression v = ./2gS in both the cases.

a) In the first case g = 9.8 m/s^2 and S = 10.3 m.

So v = 14.21 m/s

b) in the second case, g = 1.64 m/s^2 and S = 4.2 m = 3.71 m/s

Is it true that atmospheric oxygen gas is a pure substance?
Mariana [72]

The stronger the forces, the more rigid the matter. Pure Substances are made of the same material throughout and have the same properties throughout. Pure substances cannot be separated into other substances. Some examples are carbon, iron, water, sugar, salt, nitrogen gas, and oxygen gas.

A heat engine cycle is executed with steam in the saturation dome. The pressure of steam is 1.1 MPa during heat addition and 0.3
klio [65]

Answer:The highest possible efficiency of this heat engine is 11%

Explanation:

Saturated water temperature at  P1, Pressure in Heat addition,

1.1 MPa=185°C +273= 458K

Saturated water temperature at  P2, Pressure in Heat rejection,

0.3MPa=133.5°C+ 273=406.5K

The highest possible efficiency of any heat engine is the Carnot efficiency given as

Carnot efficiency,  ηmax = 1- (T2/ T1)

1- (406.5K/458K)

1-0.88755=0.112

=11%

When analyzing a position time graph the direction of the slope positive or negative tells us:
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

Positive values for position indicate that the object is in front of the starting point and negative values tell us that the object is behind the starting point. (time = 9.5, position = 0) the object is at the starting point.
