mockingbird asked: Heat engines
any device that converts heat energy to work. It requires a high- temperature source from which heat can be removed, a low- temp, leceptacle called a sink into which heat can be delivered and a way to convert this into work
Heat Pumps
a device that transfers heat energy from low-tem reservoir to a high temp reservoir. It’s function basically is the reverse of heat engine

Sam Peltier asked: My physics lab requires me to find the mass of a van without turning it on. My group can move the car, but we cannot turn it on. We can use the following items:
-3 Bathroom scales
-1 Stopwatch
-1 Measuring tape
I have to incorporate friction. To find the friction coefficient, we will push the car at a constant velocity with the bathroom scales between us and the car. The total force shown on the scales will be the amount of force needed to overcome friction resistance. I do not know what to do after that.

HUSSAIN H asked: The wife of an engineering professor filled up her car’s gas tank, reset the fuel economy calculator to zero, and then drove the hybrid electric car 82 miles. During her trips, she obtained 37.2 miles per gallon performance out of the car. The professor drove the car an additional 8 miles, averaging 51 miles per gallon during his trips. What would be the overall miles per gallon their car would report for the total driving done since they reset the fuel economy calculator?

slaffey16 asked:
We are given two small axle rods about 2 1/2″ inches long and 4 plastic wheels about an inch in height , a small motor, and two 1.5 volt Duracell batteries and the only requirements is it has to run with a propeller. We’re not allowed to buy the propeller though, but we can use anything we want to make the frame of the car. Does anybody have any bright ideas on how to make a super fast car?

Logan A asked:
I have been interested in steam power for years. I have converted
lawn mower engines to steam and it is not that hard. A car would
be bigger (and more expensive) but the principles are the same.
