jenyasd209 [6]

To solve this problem we will apply the first law of thermodynamics which details the relationship of energy conservation and the states that the system's energy has. Energy can be transformed but cannot be created or destroyed.

Accordingly, the rate of work done in one cycle and the heat transferred can be expressed under the function,

\dot{U} = \dot{Q}-\dot{W}

Substitute 1W for \dot{Q} and 1.5 W for \dot{W}

\dot{U} = 1-1(1.5)

\dot{U} = 2.5W

Now calculcate the rate of specific internal energy increase,

\dot{u} = \frac{\dot{U}}{m}

\dot{u} = \frac{2.5}{1.5}

\do{u} = 1.6667W/kg

The rate of specific internal energy increase is 1.6667W/kg

A ramp 20 m long and 4 m high is used to lift a heavy box. A pulley system with 4 rope sections supporting the load is used to l
irga5000 [103]

The correct option is d)greater input distance and a smaller force

Why?

We must remember that while a pulley has more rope sections, the force requiered to lift the load will be smaller, but the input distance required to lift the load will be greater.

Hence, for the problem, the correct option is d)greater input distance and a smaller force.

Have a nice day!

When you come within 100 ft of the uncontrolled railroad crossing and you cannot see the tracks for 400 ft in both directions, t
Sergio039 [100]
The answer to the blank above is 20. The speed limit given provided that you cannot see the tracks for 400 ft in both directions is always 20 mph. Basically, this 20 mph is decided based upon the traffic laws in order to avoid road casualties. Since it is "uncontrolled railroad crossing", the minimum speed should be implemented to slow down for the purpose of traffic calming measures. Other than this, the 20 mph is also applicable in narrowing roads as well as speed humps.

An individual white LED (light-emitting diode) has an efficiency of 20% and uses 1.0 W of electric power. a. How many LEDs must
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

8, 8 W

Explanation:

The useful power of 1 Light Emitting Diode is

0.2\times 1=0.2\ W

Total power required is 1.6 W

Number of Light Emitting Diodes would be

n=\dfrac{1.6}{0.2}\\\Rightarrow n=8

The number of Light Emitting Diodes is 8.

Power would be

P=8\times 1=8\ W

The power that is required to run the Light Emitting Diodes is 8 W

<span>You are given an applied force of 110 n with an angle of 30</span>°<span> with the ground. Since the  force is not perpendicular or parallel to the sled then you will have two components. These components are in sine and cosine form.

for parallel component
x = rcos</span>β
