Explanation:
Given that,
Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westward.
Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:
is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)
is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy.
Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is
Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be
So, the magnitude is 20 m/s and the direction is westward (negative sign).
Efficiency is calculated through dividing the actual mechanical advantage by the hypothetical mechanical advantage:
- the actual mechanical advantage is 9J because that's how much work the light bulb doing
- the hypo. mechanical advantage is 100J. Ideally, in a perfect world, the light bulb can convert 100J input into 100J output, but do to resistance and other factors it is not possible.
change the decimal to a percentage:
the light bulb had 9% efficiency
