Answer:

The energy efficiency represents the things you can do with some amount of energy, and if you can do more with less, than it reduces the energy consumption.

Explanation:

The answer to this question is actually very simple. Imagine that you use only the half of the energy you produce, an efficiency of 50%. Lets say you need 5kJ, so you would need to produce 10kJ, because you can consume only the half. Now, imagine you increase the efficiency, you use exactly what you can generate, (efficiency of 100%). In this case, if you needed only 5kJ you would need to generate only 5kJ.

A 1-kg block is lifted vertically 1 m at constant speed by a boy. The work done by the boy is about:

Igoryamba

Answer:

$9.8\; {\rm J}$ , assuming that the gravitational field strength is $g = 9.8\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}$ .

Explanation:

Notice that both the speed and the direction of motion of this block are constant. In other words, the velocity of this block is constant.

By Newton's Second Law, the net force on this block would be $0$ . External forces on this block should be balanced. Thus, the magnitude of the (downward) weight of this block should be equal to the magnitude of the (upward) force that the boy applies on this block.

Let $m$ denote the mass of this block. It is given that $m = 1\; {\rm kg}$ . The weight of this block would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{weight} &= m\, g \\ &= 1\; {\rm kg} \times 9.8\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}} \\ &= 9.8\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}$ .

Hence, the force that the boy applies on this block would be upward with a magnitude of $F = 9.8\; {\rm N}$ .

The mechanical work that a force did is equal to the product of:

the magnitude of the force, and
the displacement of the object in the direction of the force.

The displacement of this block (upward by $s = 1\; {\rm m}$ ) is in the same direction as the (upward) force that this boy had applied. Thus, the work that this boy had done would be the product of:

the magnitude of the force that this boy exerted, $F = 9.8\; {\rm N}$ , and
the displacement of this block in the direction, $s = 1\; {\rm m}$ .

$\begin{aligned}\text{work} &= F\, s \\ &= 9.8\; {\rm N} \times 1\; {\rm m} \\ &= 9.8\; {\rm J}\end{aligned}$ .

Help! PROJECTILE PROBLEM: A 7500-kg rocket blasts off vertically from the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.25

dsp73

Here,

height at failure, h1 = 525 m,
upward acceleration, a = 2.25 m/s^2,
velocity = v m/s,

SO, 

v^2 = 2*a*h = 2*2.25*525 = 2362.5 
Now, acceleration, g = 9.8 m/s^2,

SO, 

heigt, h1 = v^2/2g = 2362.5 / 2*9.8 = 120.54 meters 
Hence,

a) 
Total height = 525+120.54 = 645.54 meters

b)
time, for h1, t = v/g = sqrt(2362.5)/9.8 = 4.96 sec

In what way would a digital thermometer be preferable to those from a liquid-based thermometer?

garik1379 [7]

Reading a digital thermometer is more preferable because you can just easily read the measurement from a screen, a number will just show in a screen as compared to a liquid-based thermometer where you still have to read the measurement by counting the markers in the thermometer. Hope this helps! Mark brainly please!
