0.729 kg of fuel = 1 liter
1 kg of fuel = 1/0.729 liter = 1.372 liter
3.785 liter = 1 gallon
1.372 liter = 1.372/3.785 gallon = 0.362 gallon
Therefore, 1 kg of fuel = 0.362 gallon
1.609 km = 1 mile
7.9 km = 7.9/1.609 miles = 4.91 miles
Therefore, Fuel Efficiency = 4.91 miles/0.362 gallon
Fuel Efficiency = 13.56 miles/gallon

Question 15 A tourist purchases a car in England and ships it home to the United States. The car sticker advertised that the car's fuel consumption was at the rate of 40 miles per gallon on the open road. The tourist does not realize that the U.K. gallon differs from the U.S. gallon: 1 U.K. gallon = 4.545 963 1 liters 1 U.S. gallon = 3.785 306 0 liters For a trip of 744 miles (in the United States), how...

As a result of government and consumer pressure, automobile manufacturers in the United States are deeply involved in research to improve their products' gasoline mileage. The table below shows the data on the mileage (rounded to the nearest mile for convenience) obtained by test versions of a compact model designed to achieve 40 mpg: 35, 36, 37, 38, 39. 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 freq: 30, 41, 29, 32, 43, 50, 42, 36, 29, 19, 18 What is the...

A liter is 0.264179 gallons. Write a program that will read in the number of liters of gasoline consumed by the user's car and the number of miles per gallon the car delivered. Your program should allow the user to repeat this calculation as often as the user wishes. Define a function to compute the number of miles per gallon. Your program should use a globally defined constant for the number of liters per gallon. After doing this... Modify your...

Problem 1 Time standards are now based on atomic clocks. A promising second standard is based on pulsars, which are rotating neutron stars (highly compact stars consisting only of neutrons). Some rotate at a rate that is highly stable, sending out a radio beacon that sweeps briefly across Earth once with each rotation, like a lighthouse beacon. Pulsar PSR 1937+21 is an example; it rotates once every 1.55780644887275 +3ms, where the trailing +3ms indicates the uncertainty in the last decimal...

Consider a cloudless day on which the sun shines down across the United States. If 2333 kJ of energy reaches a square meter (mº) of the United States in one hour, how much total solar energy reaches the entire United States per hour?

2. Suppose a car travels 108 km at a speed of 20.0 m/s, and uses
2.20 gallons of gasoline. Only 30% of the gasoline goes into useful
work by the force that keeps the car moving at constant speed
despite friction. (The energy content of gasoline is 1.3 ✕
108 J per gallon.)
(a) What is the force exerted to keep the car moving at constant
speed?
N
(b) If the required force is directly proportional to speed, how
