The answer is 1. 4 is incorrect because you can't really decrease the mass of the driver. 3 is incorrect because accelerating the driver would cause more damage than not. 2 is incorrect because decreasing the distance would only cause more damage. 1 is correct because by increasing the length of time the force acts on the driver helps reduce the speed of the driver and cause the drive to sustain less injuries. Hope that helps.

A. 4 cm behind the mirror
 For any mirror, sosi=f^2. Therefore, by plugging in the values, you get 18si=144. 144/18 = 8, so si=8
 The focal point is located 12 cm from the mirror, and si is the distance of the image from the focal point, so the image is 4 cm from the mirror. The mirror is convex, so then the focal point and the image are both behind the mirror.

Heat engines were first envisioned and built during the industrial revolution. Explain the thermodynamics of a heat engine comme

Artyom0805 [142]

Heat engines were developed during industrial revolution.

Generally a heat engine contains three parts i.e source, sink and working substance.

The source of a heat engine is present at a higher temperature as compared to the sink. Due to the temperature difference, the heat will flow from source to sink through working substance.

Let us consider $T_{1}\ and\ T_{2}$ are the temperature of source and sink.

As the source is at higher temperature as compared to sink, heat will flow from source to sink.

$Let\ Q_{1}\ and\ Q_{2}$ are the heat provided by source and heat rejected to sink.

Hence, the work done by the working substance will be -

$W\ =\ Q_{1}-Q_{2}$

The efficiency of a heat engine is defined as the ratio of output to the input energy.

Here output = workdone [W]

Hence, the efficiency of a heat engine is calculated as -

$Efficiency\ [\eta]=\frac{W}{Q_{1}}$

$\eta\ =\frac{Q_{1}- Q_{2}} {Q_{1}}$

$=\ 1-\frac{Q_{2}} {Q_{1}}$

This is the expression for the efficiency of heat engine.

Here, all the heat absorbed by the working substance can not be converted to desired output. The efficiency of a heat engine can not be 100 percent. Some amount of heat is lost in the form of sound and heat due to the friction which is produced due to the relative motion between various parts of the machine.

¿Alguien me puede ayudar? Problema: Un niño le pide gastada a su papá y éste le contesta que le dará los $120 que tiene en su bo

VLD [36.1K]

Answer: there are 15 coins of $2 and 18 coins of $5

Explanation:

I will answer in English.

X is the number of $5 coins.

Y is the number of $2 coins.

We have the system of equations:

Y + X = 33

Y*2 + X*5 = 120

first, we must isolate one of the variables in one of the equations and then replace it in the other equation, let's isolate Y in the first equation:

Y = 33 - X.

Then we can replace it in the other equation:

(33 - X)*2 + X*5 = 120

66 - X*2 + X*5 = 120

X*3 = 54

X = 54/3 = 18

and using the equation for Y.

Y = 33 - X = 33 - 18 = 15

So there are 15 coins of $2 and 18 coins of $5

Milk containing 3.7% fat and 12.8% total solids is to be evaporated to produce a product containing 7.9% fat. What is the yield

ratelena [41]

Answer:

the yield of product is YP=46.835 % and the concentration of solids is

Cs = 27.33%

Explanation:

Assuming that all the solids and fats remains in the milk after the evaporation, then the mass of product mP will be

Mass of fat in 100 kg of milk = 100 kg* 0.037 = mP* 0.079

mP = 100 kg* 0.037/0.079 = 46.835 kg

then the yield YP of the product is

YP= mP / 100 kg = 46.835 kg / 100 kg = 46.835 %

YP= 46.835 %

the concentration of solids Cs is

Mass of solids in 100 kg of milk = 100 kg* 0.128 = 46.835 kg * Cs

Cs = 100 kg* 0.128 / 46.835 kg = 0.2733 = 27.33%

Cs = 27.33%

Convert the volume 8.06 in.3 to m3, recalling that1in. =2.54cmand100cm=1m. Answer in units of m3.

galina1969 [7]

1 in=2.54 cm=(2.54 cm)(1 m/100 cm)=0.0254 m
Therefore:
1 in=0.0254 m
1 in³=(0.0254 m)³=1.6387064 x 10⁻⁵ m³

Therefore:

8.06 in³=(8.06 in³)(1.6387064 x 10⁻⁵ m³ / 1 in³)≈1.321 x 10⁻⁴ m³.

Answer: 8.06 in³=1.321 x 10⁻⁴ m³
