Write a hypothesis about the effect of the angle of the track on the acceleration of the cart. Use the "if . . . then . . . because . . .” format and be sure to answer the lesson question: "How does an object's position and velocity change as the object accelerates?”

Two kilograms of air within a piston–cylinder assembly executes a carnot power cycle with maximum and minimum temperatures of 800 k and 300 k, respectively. the heat transfer to the air during the isothermal expansion is 60 kj. at the end of the isothermal expansion the volume is 0.4 m3. assume the ideal gas model for the air. determine the thermal efficiency, the volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion, in m3, and the work during the adiabatic expansion, in kj.
