The efficiency of the machine is

                                 output energy  /  input energy

                             =  output power  /  input power

                             =     3,761 watts  /  4,000 watts 

                             =            (3,761  /  4,000)

                             =                0.94025

                             =                  94.025 %

Select the choice that best completes the following sentence. When an axe is used to chop wood, A. the axe blade acts as a wedge
Firdavs [7]
Answer: C
<span>
An axe is a mechanical device with two inclined planes, thick at one end and tapers to a thin edge and when it is used to chop wood, the axe blade acts as a wedge and changes the direction of the input force. When the axe blade penetrates the wood, a portion of the downward force of the blade is changed to sideways forces, which are perpendicular to each external of the blade and the sideways forces cause the wood to split in contrasting directions.</span>

The gravitational potential energy of an object is equal to its weight multiplied by its
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Height above a surface

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy which an object possesses due to its position above a surface.

It is also the amount of work a force has to do in order to bring an object from a particular position to a point of reference.

It is given mathematically as:

P. E. = m*g*h

where m = mass of the body

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height above a surface

m*g represents the weight of the object.

Hence, Gravitational potential energy is the product of an object's weight and its height above a surface/reference point.

An object moves along the grid through the points A, B, C, D, E, and Fas shown below.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Total distance = 6.5 km

Explanation:

Let the distance be denoted by the vectors drawn from A, B, C, D, E, and F.

Then the distance covered can be calculated by adding the vectors in the direction given.

Total distance = 3km + 1km+ 1.5km+ 0.5km+ 0.5km

Total distance = 6.5 km

If we were to find the displacement ( shortest distance) then the head to tail rule would be applied using the vectors.

Tarzan, who weighs 825 N, swings from a cliff at the end of a 19.7 m vine that hangs from a high tree limb and initially makes a
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

a) T = (281.47 i ^ + 714.56 j ^) N , b) F_net = (281.47 i ^ - 110.44 j ^) N ,

c)  F = 281.70 N, d)    θ = 338.58º , e)  a = 3,588 m / s² , f)  θ = 201.45º

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law on each axis

X axis

         -Tₓ = m aₓ

Y Axisy

          T_{y} –W = m a_{y}

Let's use trigonometry to find the components of force

          sin 21.5 = Tₓ / T

          cos 21.5 = T_{y} / T

          Tₓ = T sin 21.5

          T_{y} = T cos 21.5

          Tₓ = 768 sin 21.5 = 281.47 N

          T_{y} = 768 cos 21.5 = 714.56 N

a) the force of the rope on Tarzan is

          T = (281.47 i ^ + 714.56 j ^) N

b) The net force is the subtraction of the tension minus the weight of Tarzan

Y  Axis   F_net = 714.56 - 825 = -110.44 N

              F_net = (281.47 i ^ - 110.44 j ^) N

c) Let's use Pythagoras' theorem

      F = √ (Fₓ² + T_{y}²)

      F = √ (281.47² + 110.44²)

      F = 281.70 N

d) Let's use trigonometry

     tan θ = F_{y} / Fₓ

      θ = tan⁻¹ F_{y} / Fₓ

      θ = tan⁻¹ (-110.44 / 281.47)

       θ = -21.42º

This angle is average clockwise, for counterclockwise measurement

       θ = 360 - 21.42

       θ = 338.58º

Acceleration

X axis

             Tₓ = m aₓ

             aₓ = Tₓ / m

The mass of Tarzan is

             m = W / g

             m = 825 / 9.8 = 84.18 kg

             

             aₓ = 281.47 / 84.18

             aₓ = -3.34 m / s2

Y Axis

            T_{y}-W = m a_{y}

            a_{y} = (T_{y} -W) / m

            a_{y} = (714.56-825) / 84.18

            a_{y} = - 1,312 m / s²

Acceleration Module

             a = √ aₓ² + a_{y}²

             a = √ (3.34² +1.312²)

             a = 3,588 m / s²

The angle

          θ = tan⁻¹ a_{y} / aₓ

          θ = tan⁻¹ (-1312 / -3.34)

          θ = 21.45º

Notice that the two components of the acceleration are negative, so the angle is in the third quadrant, to measure from the x-axis

          θ = 180 + 21.45

          θ = 201.45º
