Driving on asphalt roads entails very little rolling resistance, so most of the energy of the engine goes to overcoming air resistance. But driving slowly in dry sand is another story.
If a 1500 kg car is driven in sand at 5.0 m/s , the coefficient of rolling friction is 0.06. In this case, nearly all of the energy that the car uses to move goes to overcoming rolling friction, so you can ignore air drag in this problem.
a. What propulsion force is needed to keep the car moving forward at a constant speed?
b. What power is required for propulsion at 5.0 m/s ?
c. If the car gets 15 miles per gallon when driving on sand, what is the car's efficiency? One gallon of gasoline contains 1.4 x 10^8 J of chemical energy, one mile is 1609 m.

Use the frequency histogram to complete the following parts. ​(a) identify the class with the​ greatest, and the class with the​ least, relative frequency. ​(b) estimate the greatest and least relative frequencies. ​(c) describe any patterns with the data. female fibula lengths 30.5 31.5 32.5 33.5 34.5 35.5 36.5 37.5 38.5 39.5 0 0.05 0.1 0.15 0.2 0.25 length (in centimeters) relative frequency a histogram titled "female fibula lengths" has a horizontal axis labeled "length in centimeters" from 30.5 to 39.5 in increments of 1 and a vertical axis labeled "relative frequency" from 0 to 0.25 in increments of 0.05. the histogram contains vertical bars of width 1, where one vertical bar is centered over each of the horizontal axis tick marks. the approximate heights of the vertical bars are listed as follows, where the label is listed first and the approximate height is listed second: 30.5, 0.02; 31.5, 0.04; 32.5, 0.05; 33.5, 0.13; 34.5, 0.22; 35.5, 0.25; 36.5, 0.13; 37.5, 0.06; 38.5, 0.09; 39.5, 0.01. ​(a) the class with the greatest relative frequency is nothing to nothing centimeters. ​(type integers or decimals. do not round. use ascending​ order.)

An ideal otto cycle has a compression ratio of 8. at the beginning of the compression process, air is at 95 kpa and 27°c, and 750 kj/kg of heat is transferred to air during the constant-volume heat-addition process. assuming constant specific heats at room temperature, determine (a) the pressure and temperature at the end of the heat-addition process, (b) the net work output, (c) the thermal efficiency, and (d) the mean effective pressure for the cycle.
