coefficient of static friction required between the sprinter's shoes and the track is  u=0.293.

Explanation:-  

The frictional coefficient is found from newton’s second law

\Sigma F=m u g \ldots \ldots \ldotseqn(1)

We know that  

F=m a \ldots \ldots \ldots{eqn}(2)

Compare the Eqn (1) and eqn (2)  

m u g=m a

Mass (m) cancel each other both side

So

u g=a

Coefficient of static friction    

u=\frac{a}{g} \ldots \ldots {eqn}(3)

We know that  

Kinetics  V^{2}=V_{0}^{2}+2 .a .\Delta s  

V=r e s t \text { of speed }=11 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

V_{0}=\text { initial speed}=0

\Delta s=d i s t a n c e=21 m

a=\text { acceleration }=\text { unknown }

a=\frac{\left(V^{2}-V_{0}^{2}\right)}{2 \Delta s}

a=\frac{\left(11^{2}-0\right)}{(2 \times 21)}

a=\frac{121}{42}

a=2.88 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

Substitute the value of acceleration in eqn (3)

So that

Coefficient of static friction.

u=\frac{\left(2.88 m / s^{2}\right)}{\left(9.8 m / s^{2}\right)}

g=9.8 \text { is earth gravity }  

Coefficient of static friction     u=0.293.

Q₂ = 5833.33 J

Explanation:

First we need to find the energy supplied to the heat engine. The formula for the efficiency of the heat engine is given as:

η = W/Q₁

where,

η = efficiency of engine = 30% = 0.3

W = Work done by engine = 2500 J

Q₁ = Heat supplied to the engine = ?

Therefore,

0.3 = 2500 J/Q₁

Q₁ = 2500 J/0.3

Q₁ = 8333.33 J

Now, we find the heat discharged to lower temperature reservoir by using the formula of work:

W = Q₁ - Q₂

Q₂ = Q₁ - W

where,

Q₂ = Heat discharged to the lower temperature reservoir = ?

Therefore,

Q₂ = 8333.33 J - 2500 J

Q₂ = 5833.33 J
