A kettle has a 55% energy efficiency. The input energy for the kettle is 378,000 J per boil. Calculate the amount of energy dissipated in 5 boils.

Energy used for one boil = (3.78 x 10 5 / 100) x 55Energy used for one boil = 2.079 x 10 5 J Energy lost per boil = 3.78 x 10 5 -2.079 x 10 5 Energy lost per boil = 1.701 x 10 5 Energy lost per 5 boils = (1....

Firstly, we differentiate y = x 2 +7x+3 . This gives dy/dx = 2x+7.The minimum value occurs when dy/dx = 0. So find x and y when dy/dx=0. 2x+7=0 implies x= -3.5, which from the first equation means y = (-3.5)...
