A rock is thrown directly upward from the edge of a flat roof of a building that is 56.3 meters tall. The rock misses the building on its way down, and is observed to strike the ground 4.00 seconds after being thrown. Take the acceleration due to gravity to have magnitude and neglect any effects of air resistance. With what speed was the rock thrown

Select all the correct answers. which changes will increase the rate of reaction during combustion? decreasing the area of contact between the reactants adding more oxygen to the reaction removing heat from the reaction changing the reactants from solid form to powdered form lowering the exposure of the reactants to air

The total amount of energy contained in an object

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.
