- please answer the following As a gasoline engine is running, an amount of gasoline containing 12,000 J of chemical potential energy is burned in 1 s. During that second, the engine does 4,000 J of work. What is the engine's efficiency (in percent)? The burning gasoline has a temperature of about 4,300°F (2,600 K). The waste heat from the engine flows into air at about 88°F (304 K). What is the Carnot efficiency (in percent) of a heat engine operating between these two temperatures?arrow_forwardIn a certain process, the energy of the system decreases by 250 kJ. The process involves 480 kJ of work done on the system. Find the amount of heat Q transferred in this process. Express your answer numerically in kilojoules. Make your answer positive if the heat is transferred into the system; make it negative if the heat is transferred into the surroundings.arrow_forwardSuppose you spend 30.0 minutes on a stair- climbing machine, climbing at a rate of 90.0 steps per minute, with each step 8.00 inches high. If you weigh 150. lb and the machine reports that 600. kcal have been burned at the end of the workout, what efficiency is the machine using in obtaining this result? If your actual efficiency is 0.18, how many kcal did you actually burn?arrow_forward
- In the past decades, coal was used to heat the engine of a steam locomotive. With the engine, a steam locomotive can be accelerated to a desired speed. Calculate the efficiency of the steam engine, when the calorific value of coal is MJ H = 27.9000 M, velocity of the m, = 115 t weighted locomotive is v = 93 km .
