Answer:          T = 93 N

Explanation:

Assuming the pulley is ideal meaning frictionless as mentioned and also negligible mass.

         ΣF = Σma

Mg - mg = Ma + ma

           a = g(M - m) / (M + m)

Now looking only at the larger mass as it falls

Mg - T = Ma

       T = Mg - Ma

       T = Mg - Mg(M - m) / (M + m)

       T = Mg(1  -(M - m) / (M + m))

       T = 16(9.8)(1 - (16 - 6.7) / (16 + 6.7))

       T = 93 N

or looking only at the smaller mass

T - mg = ma

T = m(g + a)

T = m(g +  g(M - m) / (M + m))

T = mg(1 +  (M - m) / (M + m))

T = 6.7(9.8)(1 +  (16 - 6.7) / (16 + 6.7))

T = 93 N

In one cycle, a heat engine takes in 1000 J of heat from a high-temperature reservoir, releases 600 J of heat to a lower-tempera
Talja [164]

Answer:

η = 40 %  

Explanation:

Given that

Qa ,Heat addition= 1000  J

Qr,Heat rejection= 600 J

Work done ,W= 400 J

We know that ,efficiency of a engine given as

\eta=\dfrac{W(net)}{Q(heat\ addition)}

Now by putting the values in the above equation ,then we get

\eta=\dfrac{400}{1000}

η = 0.4

The efficiency in percentage is given as

η = 0.4  x 100 %

η = 40 %

Therefore the answer will be 40%.

What is the source of the radioactivity?
Nataly_w [17]
The Earth itself is a source of terrestrial radiation. Radioactive materials including uranium, thorium, and radium exist naturally in soil and rock. Essentially all air contains radon<span> , which is responsible for most of the dose that Americans receive each year from natural background sources.</span>

Scientists have used different methods to construct solar system models. Which of these qualities did the scientists most likely
Orlov [11]
The correct answer is creativity

Being kind and helpful in no way helps you develop theories, however, being creative does because creativity leads to ingenuity and testing and trying various things.

All of the earth's life and weather exists within the stratosphere. <br> a. True<br> b. False
Trava [24]

The statement “All of the earth's life and weather exists within the stratosphere” is false. The answer is letter B. The answer is the troposphere. The first layer, troposphere, is where we are able to do most of our activities. This is where we can see the formation of clouds, the production of rain, hail, snow and other weather phenomenon. Also, this layer is where the greatest amount of air pressure because most of the molecules of air are in this area. Like us, air has also mass and the pressure is brought down by the earth’s gravity causing an increase in weight exerted on you as you descend lower into the atmosphere. So, as you enter into the other layers of atmosphere above the troposphere, the air pressure starts to decrease. <span>Below the atmosphere is the hydrosphere. This is where all liquid forms are located. And since the seawater has a greater mass than air, it has the greatest pressure. </span>
