A:The Book of Genesis is now believed to have been written by three main sources, anonymous but known to scholars as the 'J Source' or Yahwist, the 'E Source' or Elohist, and the 'P Source' or Priestly Source.

The J Source wrote from the point of view of the southern Hebrew kingdom of Judah in the very early part of the first millennium BCE. The J text includes the second creation story (which starts at Genesis 2:4a), the original version of Noah's Flood (there is also a version by the Priestly Source, but most readers are unaware of the existence of two somewhat different versions in the same book) and some material about the Patriarchs.

What is the efficiency of an engine that does 80 J of work and exhausts 320 J of heat while taking in 400 J of heat?

The efficiency of an engine is calculated using the formula: [ \text{Efficiency} = \frac{\text{Work Output}}{\text{Heat Input}} \times 100 ] In this case, the work output is 80 J and the heat input is 400 J. Thus, the efficiency is: [ \text{Efficiency} = \frac{80 , \text{J}}{400 , \text{J}} \times 100 = 20% ] So, the efficiency of the engine is 20%.

How efficient is a machine that uses 130 J to lift a 50.0N load 2.0 m?

To calculate the efficiency of the machine, we first determine the work done against gravity, which is the product of the load and the distance: ( \text{Work} = 50.0 , \text{N} \times 2.0 , \text{m} = 100 , \text{J} ). The efficiency can be calculated using the formula: [ \text{Efficiency} = \left( \frac{\text{Useful Work Output}}{\text{Energy Input}} \right) \times 100% ] Substituting in the values: [ \text{Efficiency} = \left( \frac{100 , \text{J}}{130 , \text{J}} \right) \times 100% \approx 76.9% ] Thus, the machine is approximately 76.9% efficient.
