What effect if any does this energy transfer have on the overall efficiency of the car engine?

As a "heat engine", a car engine must rid itself of heat to continue. Efficiency of the heat engine depends on the difference in temperature; therefore, as the temperature outside reaches the temperature inside, the engine stops.

The transfer of thermal energy with no overall transfer of matter?
the transfer of heat through empty space is called RADIATION.
The amount of power derived from a device or system is its?
That amount is always less than the energy you put into the system. Divide the amount of useful energy you get from a system by the amount of energy you put into it, and you find the system's 'efficiency'.
What is a model of energy transfer?
spell it to you8
Describe why a high-efficiency machine is more desirable thana low-efficiency machine?
A high efficiency machine will produce more of what is it that you want with the same power as the low efficiency one. In other words, for a low efficiency machine do as much as a high efficiency one, you have to give it more power (energy).
Which of the following influences the circulation of ocean waters?
1. Differential warming 2. Transfer of Wind Energy 3. Coriolis Effect 4. Presence of Continents
If efficiency of converting chemical to thermal energy was 90 percent what would the overall efficiency be?
In saying what the overall efficiency would be, I suppose you mean for other processes, creating the chemical energy for example, and using the thermal energy. This is impossible to answer, not knowing what these processes are.
What does efficiency do on a pick-axe?
It doesn't 'do' anything. Efficiency measures the effect something has in proportion to the energy required for that effect.
The transfer of thermal energy in matter with no overall transfer of matter is called?
conduction
How does compression ratio affect engine efficiency and performance?
Engine efficiency is increased though compression ratio by allowing a more thermodynamic energy to be converted into mechanical energy. Energy transfer is the key to efficiency.
What affects the efficiency of energy transfer within an ecosystem?
Everything from climate to the food chain affects the efficiency of energy transfer in an ecosystem. The smallest changes, such as an animal becoming extinct, can have a very dramatic impact on the energy within an ecosystem.
The transfer of thermal energy in matter wih no overall transfer of matter is called?
Conduction
What effect does friction have on a machines efficiency?
Efficiency of the machine is reduced due to loss of energy by friction.
What is the effect of carbon footprint on energy efficiency?

What is maximum power transfer theorem?
Max efficiency of energy transfer can only occur when impedence source matches the impedence of the load.
What is the effect of energy transfer to the environment?
global warming
