what do you mean by efficiency of a machine?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Efficiency in general means How well an object does with respect to its designated purpose for example a battery with Voltage of 10 volts won't exert 10 volts but slightly less due to internal resistance let's say 8V so efficiency will be 8/10 x100 = 80%

Same thing with a machine/engine If an engine is designed to produce 150 horsepower it won't give you the full energy due to part of the energy being dissipated in form of heat due to friction so let's say 145 hp is produced which is 96% efficiency

Given the height of rod,length of shadow of tree and length of shadow of the rod, estimate the height of the tree? Given:height of rod=150cm,Length of shadow of the rod=120cm and length of shadow of the tree =800cm​

Answers

Answer:

1000 cm.

Explanation:

To obtain the estimated tree height :

(Height of rod / length of rod shadow) = (height of tree / length of tree shadow)

Substituting values into the formula :

(150cm / 120 cm) = (height of tree / 800 cm)

Using cross multiplication :

Height of tree * 120 = 150 * 800

Height of tree = (150 * 800) / 120

Height of tree = 120,000 / 120

Height of tree = 1000

Hence, estimate height of tree = 1000 cm

A rod is given a charge of +16.7 UC, how many extra protons does It contain?

Answers

Answer:

We know that the electronic charge is 1.6 E-19 coulombs

Therefore 1 coulomb of charge contains 1.6  E19 electrons

A charge of 16.7 E6 coulombs therefore contains

N = 16.7 E6 * 1.6 * E-19 = 2.67 E-12 electrons

Also, the charge on the proton equals that on the electron

A baseball is struck home plate and acquires a speed of 60m/s. It rises to a height of 100.0 m above its starting level. Find its speed at the height

Answers

Answer:

40 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 60 m/s

Height (h) = 100 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Final velocity (v) =?

The velocity at height 100 m can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² – 2gh (since the ball is going against gravity)

v² = 60² – (2 × 10 × 100)

v² = 3600 – 2000

v² = 1600

Take the square root of both side

v = √1600

v = 40 m/s

Thus, velocity at height 100 m is 40 m/s

A 1.2 m long wave travels 11.2 m to a wall and back again in 4.0 s. What is

the FREQUENCY of the wave*

Answers

Answer:

   f = 4.67 Hz

Explanation:

We can approximate the wave as a traveling wave, therefore the speed of the wave is constant

          v = d / t

the total distance remember, in going to the wall and back is

          d = 2 11.2 = 22.4 me

we substitute

          v = 22.4 / 4.0

          v = 5.6 m / s

now we can use the relationship between the speed of the wave, its wavelength and u frequency

          v =λ f

          f = v /λ

          f = 5.6 / 1.2

          f = 4.67 Hz

Two harmonic waves moving in the same direction are described by y1(x,t)=10.2sin(4x-700t) and y2(x,t)=10.2sin(4x-700t-7.9). What is the amplitude of the resultant wave at interference

Answers

Answer:

14.42 units

Explanation:

The waves are given as follows :

[tex]y_1(x,t)=10.2\sin(4x-700t)\\\\y_2(x,t)=10.2\sin(4x-700t-7.9)[/tex]

We need to find the amplitude of the resultant wave at interference. Let it be A. So,

[tex]A=\sqrt{10.2^2+10.2^2} \\\\=14.42\ units[/tex]

So, the amplitude of the resultant wave is equal to 14.42 units.

Answers

Answer: A while driving a car. It is unsafe

Answer:

It is a good idea to read or exchange text messages during all of the following  times except while driving a car.

Explanation:

Eating lunch and using your phone is very safe. The only way I can see it being bad is if you handed your phone to some toddlers and took it back without wiping it off!

If you're waiting for your appointment or waiting to reach your destination, then there is also no harm. As long as you are not driving the bus or you're not the doctor working on patients while texting, then this should be alright.

This leaves us with driving. The commercials tell us. Common knowledge tells us. Hopefully, parents or colleagues or even your own kids (I've had to do this to my dad countless times before) have told you this...

DO NOT TEXT WHILE DRIVING.

So many accidents happen solely for this reason. People, just put down the phone and wait 'til you're at a red light or, even better, when you reach your destination.

So no, it is not a good idea to read OR exchange text messages while driving. Any other time? Well, go ahead! But if you're in that driver seat and your currently in the road with other cars, take into consideration the fact you are not the only person there. Keep everyone safe and drop that phone!

Answer: B

Explanation:Solids are packed thus molecules are restricted and can only vibrate. Liquids, on the other hand, molecules can move and slide against each other since they are loosely packed. Lastly, gas particles is very loosely packed so they can move freely.

The answer is B
Particles in a solid can only vibrate. In a liquid, they slide against each other. In a gas, they move freely, bouncing and bumping into each other.

Which of the following best describes why tidal energy is considered a renewable energy resource? A. The Moon receives energy from the Sun, which is a renewable resource. B. Humans can create more tidal energy by setting up more tidal energy plants. C. Ocean water will never be exhausted. D. Tidal energy is replaced naturally by the Moon's gravity.

Answers

Answer:

D. Tidal energy is replaced naturally by the Moon's gravity.

Explanation:

The reason tidal energy is considered a renewable energy resource is that Tidal energy is replaced naturally by the Moon's gravity. The Moon's gravity creates bulges on the side of Earth that is closest and farthest from the Moon. These bulges also pull water causing high tides in those areas. As the Earth rotates these areas experience low tide while the areas that had low tide now experience high tide. This constant shift creates tidal energy every day, which is replenished naturally.

An electron (e = 1.6 x 10-19 C) is traveling at 4.00 x 107 m/s due North in a horizontal plane through a point where the earth’s magnetic field has a component to the North of 2.00 x 10-5 T and a downward (in to the earth) of 5.00 x 10-5 T. Calculate the magnetic force (magnitude and direction) on the electron and its acceleration. Me = 9.11 x 10-31 kg

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Force on the electron due to magnetic field 's north component will be zero because both velocity of electron and direction of magnetic field are same .

Force due to downward component of magnetic field

= B q v where B is magnetic field , q is charge moving and v is velocity of charge

F = 5 .00 x 10⁻⁵ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 4 x 10⁷

= 32 x 10⁻¹⁷ N

acceleration = F / m where m is mass of electron

= 32 x 10⁻¹⁷ / 9.11 x 10⁻³¹

= 3.5 x 10¹⁴ m/s²
