Gasoline containing a total of 44,000 kJ of energy was burned in a car
engine. The table below shows some information related to the energy
output of the car from burning the gasoline. How much potential energy
from the gasoline was converted to mechanical energy? Energy Output
in (kJ) Thermal = 36,080 Electrical = 1,760 Mechanical = ?? *
6,160 kJ
14,960 kJ

20,240 kJ
44,000 kJ

6,160 kJ

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

In fact, the sum of the different types of energy in output must be equal to the total energy in input. So we can write:

where:

is the chemical energy contained in the gasoline (the energy in input)

is the thermal energy in output

is the electrical energy in output

is the mechanical energy in output

In this problem:

So the mechanical energy is:

wanahton purified a portion of water with 900 grams of contaminants. each hour, a third of the contaminants was filtered out.

let g(n) be the amount of contaminants (in grams) that remained by the beginning of the nth hour. g is a sequence, what kind of sequence is it, arithmetic or geometric? then, write an explicit formula for the sequence, g(n)=
