- Question 4 of 10 0/1 E View Policies Show Attempt History Current Attempt in Progress In a diesel engine the fuel is ignited when it is injected into hot compressed air, heated by the compression itself. In a typical high-speed diesel engine, the chamber in the cylinder has a diameter of 10.7 cm and a length of 13.4 cm. On compression, the length of the chamber is shortened by 12.7 cm (a “5-inch stroke"). The compression of the air changes its pressure from 1.00 to 39.5 atm. The temperature of the air before compression is 391 K. As a result of the compression, what will be the final air temperature (in Kand °C) just before the fuel injection? temperature = K = i °C eTextbook and Media Hint Assistance Used Determine the volume change as a way to get a handle on the new temperature. What equation relates pressure, temperature, and volume? The volume of the cylinder = z r² (height). Remember that the radius is half the diameter.

The rocket is loaded with 13014 kg of fuel initially, which has a burn rate of 175 kg/s and runs at a relative speed of 4000 m/s. Find the maximum speed that can be achieved by the rocket. This is when we want to deploy the shuttle. Assume that gravity doesn't change value (this assumption will ensure that we reach our destination). The time that it reaches maximum speed is seconds. The rocket reaches meters/second when the shuttle is to deploy. * Please make sure the answer is correct* A spaceshuttle that weighs 512 kg is mounted to a rocket that weighs 17352 kg, which includes the fuel inside.
