In the technological development of engines, trial and error played an important role. Improved engines were often made by trial and error. That is, trying to overcome a drawback of an existing engine or the impracticality of a proposed engine design led to the development of a new engine. Match the engines in the following list with their drawbacks. Place your answer in the blank space given.
-This engine was large and massive and less efficient than thought possible.
Answer 1

-The boiler could not withstand the steam pressure needed to lift water beyond 6 m.
Answer 2

-The continual reheating needed after each cooling of the engine cylinder required a tremendous amount of thermal energy.
Answer 3

The engine had no mechanism to move the piston back to complete a cycle.
-Answer 4

Aboat radioed a distress call to a coast guard station. at the time of the call, a vector a from the station to the boat had a magnitude of 45.0 km and was directed 15.0° east of north. a vector from the station to the point where the boat was later found is = 30.0 km, 15.0° north of east. what are the components of the vector from the point where the distress call was made to point where the boat was found? in other words, what are the components of vector c = b - a?

Ablock of mass m slides on a horizontal frictionless table with an initial speed v0 . it then compresses a spring of force constant k and is brought to rest. the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2. how much is the spring compressed x from its natural length? 1) x = v0*sqrt(k/(mg)) 2) x=v0*sqrt(m/k) 3) x=v0*((mk)/g) 4) x=v0*sqrt(k/m) 5) x=v0*(m/kg) 6) x=v0*sqrt((mg)/k) 7) x=(v0)^2/(2g) 8) x=v0*(k/(mg)) 9) x=(v0)^2/(2m) 10) x=v0*((mg)/k)
