Explanation:

Efficiency is a way of describing the amount of useful ​output​ a process or machine can generate as a percentage of the ​input​ required to make it go. In other words, it compares how much energy is used to do work versus how much is lost or wasted to the environment. The more efficient the machine, the less energy wasted.

For example, if a heat engine is able to turn 75 percent of the fuel it receives into motion, while 25 percent is lost as heat in the process, it would be 75 percent efficient. Out of the original 100 percent of the fuel, 75 percent was output as useful work.  

the equation:

energy efficiency =useful output energy/total input energy

An 85 kg man and his 35 kg daughter are sitting on opposite ends of a 3.00 m see-saw. The see-saw is anchored in the center. If
wolverine [178]

Answer:

0.54m

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

length of seesaw= 3m

mass of man m1= 85kg

weight = mg

W1= 85*10= 850N

mass of daughter m2= 35kg

W2= 35*10= 350N

distance from the center= (1.5-0.2)= 1.3m

Step two:

we know that the sum of clockwise moment equals the anticlockwise moment

let the distance the must sit to balance the system be x

taking moment about the center of the system

350*1.3=850*x

455=850x

divide both sides by  850

x=455/850

x=0.54

Hence the man must sit 0.54m from the right to balance the system

Take 68.2/60 = 1.137 hr
take 56.9/1.137 = 50.043 mi/hr

take 189/211 = 0.896

24.8/2 = 12.4 m
12.4/82.3 = 0.15s

Calculate the net force on particle q1. First, find the direction of the force particle q2 is exerting on particle q1. Is it pus
ValentinkaMS [17]

The net force on particle particle q1 is 13.06 N towards the left.

<h3>Force on q1 due to q2</h3>

F(12) = kq₁q₂/r₂

F(12) = (9 x 10⁹ x 13 x 10⁻⁶ x 7.7 x 10⁻⁶)/(0.25²)

F(12) = -14.41 N  (towards left)

<h3>Force on q1 due to q3</h3>

F(13) = (9 x 10⁹ x 7.7 x 10⁻⁶ x 5.9 x 10⁻⁶)/(0.55²)

F(13) = 1.352 N (towards right)

<h3>Net force on q1</h3>

F(net) = 1.352 N - 14.41 N

F(net) = -13.06 N

Thus, the net force on particle particle q1 is 13.06 N towards the left.

A 10.0-kg box starts at rest on a level floor. An external, horizontal force of 2.00 × 102 N is applied to the box for a distanc
Harman [31]

Answer:

vf = 11.2 m/s

Explanation:

m = 10 Kg

F = 2*10² N

x = 4.00 m

μ = 0.44

vi = 0 m/s

vf = ?

We can apply Newton's 2nd Law

∑ Fx = m*a   (→)

F - Ffriction = m*a  ⇒  F - (μ*N) = F - (μ*m*g) = m*a   ⇒  a = (F - μ*m*g)/m

⇒    a = (2*10² N - 0.44*10 Kg*9.81 m/s²)/10 Kg = 15.6836 m/s²

then , we use the equation

vf² = vi² + 2*a*x    ⇒    vf = √(vi² + 2*a*x)

⇒   vf = √((0)² + 2*(15.6836 m/s²)*(4.00m)) = 11.2 m/s
