Let us first concentrate on the information's already provided. 
First case
The helicopter descended 1200 feet, so = - 1200
Second case
The helicopter rose 800 feet, so = 800
Then
The position at which the helicopter is now = -1200 + 800
                                                                     = - 450 feet
Third case
The helicopter again feel by 450 feet = - 450
Then
Position of helicopter = - 400 - 450
                                   = - 850
From the above deduction, we can say that the helicopter lost 850 feet. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is option "B".

We are given the heights and the directions of the displacements of the helicopter. We assign going up or gaining of height as positive and going down or losing as negative. In this case, -1200 + 800 - 450 = - 850 feet. Answer is B

There has long been an interest in using the vast quantities of thermal energy in the oceans to run heat engines. A heat engine
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

In Carnot engine , temperature difference is used to get work  output .

The maximum efficiency of a Carnot engine

= (T₁ - T₂) / T₁

where T₁ is temperature of hot reservoir , and T₂ is temperature of cold reservoir

= efficiency = ( 35 - 4 ) / ( 273 + 35 )

= 31 / 308

in percentage terms

efficiency = (31 / 308) x 100

= 10.06  % .

What is the net force that acts on a 5 kg object accelerating at 2m/s
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

10 N

Explanation:

I assume there is no friction and we are only worrying about the horizontal direction. If so we use the formula F=MA to get F= 2 * 5 = 10 N

What is strength of the electric field between two parallel conducting plates separated by 1.00 cm and having an electric potent
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Electric field will be 1.5\times 10^{6}V/m

Explanation:

We have given potential difference between the two plates = 15000 volt

Distance between the plates = d=1cm=10^{-2}m

We have to find the electric field strength between the plates

Potential difference between the plates is equal to V=Ed

So electric field strength will be E=\frac{V}{d}=\frac{15000}{10^{-2}}=1.5\times 10^{6}V/m

So electric field will be 1.5\times 10^{6}V/m

(a) A certain parallel-plate capacitor has plates of area 4.00m2 , separated by 0.0100 mm of nylon, and stores 0.170 C of charge
lilavasa [31]

The applied voltage is 1.41* 10⁴ kV.

Calculation of applied voltage-

The capacitance of parallel plates in the absence of a dielectric is:

C = ∈₀A/d

where, "d" = the spacing between the plates = 0.01 * 10⁻³ m

"A" = the area of the plates = 4 m²

"∈₀" = the constant = 8.85419*10⁻¹² C²/Nm²

So, C₀ = \frac{8.85419*10^{-12}*4 }{0.0100*10^{-3} }

          = 3541.67 *10⁻⁹ F

The dielectric constant, κ= 3.4, is defined as:

κ = C/C₀

The effective capacitance (with the dielectric) is denoted by "C", whereas the original capacitance is denoted by "C₀". (without the dielectric).

As a result, the new capacitance is:

C = κC₀

However, capacitance is connected to a voltage by:

C = Q/V

utilizing the increased capacitance and accounting for "V":

κC₀ = Q/V

V = Q/κC₀ = \frac{0.170}{3.4 * 3541.67 *10^{-9}  } = 1.41* 10⁴ kV

Therefore the applied voltage is 1.41* 10⁴ kV.
