The efficiency of the steam engine is 78.9% because the rest of the work input is used to overcome friction.

<h3>What is efficiency of machines?</h3>

Efficiency of a machine expresses the useful work done by a a machine as a percentage.

  • Efficiency of a machine = work output/work input × 100 %%

The efficiency of machines are always less than 100% percent due to energy losses due to friction and heat.

For the steam engine:

Work output = 225 J

Work input = 285 J

Efficiency = 225/285 × 100% = 78.9 %

Therefore, the efficiency of the steam engine is 78.9% because the rest of the work input is used to overcome friction.

This diagram represents the synthesis of nitrogen monoxide. Write a balanced equation of this chemical reaction. A) N2(g) + O2(g
ruslelena [56]
The only balanced equation is B. 

If you look at the equation and break it down you can see that in:

N_{2} + O_{2}→ 2NO

Starting from the left side of the equation there are 2 Nitrogen atoms, and 2 oxygen atoms as indicated by the subscript. 

To balance the equation, the number of atoms of each element in the right side equation should be equal to left. By putting the numerical coefficient of 2, you will distribute that to each element. So you will end up with 2 nitrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms on the left side of the equation. Thus, the equation is balanced. 

The answer again, is B.

The potential energy of two atoms in a diatomic molecule is approximated by U(r)=(a/r12)−(b/r6), where r is the spacing between
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

A) F(r) = [12a/(r^(13))] - [6b/(r^(7))]

ii) Graphs are attached

B) Equilibrium Distance = (2a/b)^(1/6)

C) Minimum Energy = b²/4a

D) a = 6.67 x 10^(-138) Jm^(12)

b = 6.41 x 10^(-78) Jm^(6)

Explanation:

I've attached the explanation of A-C alongside the graphs

D) i) From the question, we are to make r equal to the derivative of "r" we got when F(r) = 0 which was r = (2a/b)^(1/6)

Thus, since we are given equilibrium distance as: 1.13 x 10^(-10), hence;

(2a/b)^(1/6) = 1.13 x 10^(-10)m

So, (2a/b)= [1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)

a = (b/2)[1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)

From earlier, we saw that b²/4a = U(r)

Thus since U(r) = 1.54 x 10^(-18) from the question, b²/4a = 1.54 x 10^(-18)

Putting a = (b/2)[1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6);

We have;

(b²) / [(4b/2)[1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)]] = 1.54 x 10^(-18)

b/2 = [1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)] x 1.54 x 10^(-18)

So, b = 6.41 x 10^(-78) Jm^(6)

ii) Putting (6.41 x 10^(-78))² for b in;

a = (b/2)[1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)

We have, a = (6.41 x 10^(-78))²/ ( 4 x 1.54 x 10^(-18)

So a = 6.67 x 10^(-138) Jm^(12)

Identify the method of thermal energy transfer at work in hot air balloons. Explain how thermal energy is transferred in this sc
yan [13]
Thermal energy in the form of fire is generated by the combustion of fuel. Due to the tendency of hot air to rise upward, the heat generated rises to fill the space of the balloon. One this space is full of trapped hot air, the heat's tendency to rise causes the hot air balloon to be lifted into the air.

A sled is at rest at the top of a slope 2 m high. The sled has a mass of 45 kg. What is the sled's potential energy?
kap26 [50]

Answer:

PE = 882 J

Explanation:

Through the International System we know that the gravity of the earth is 9.8 m/s², so...

Data:

  • m = 45 kg
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • h = 2 m
  • PE = ?

Formula:

  • \boxed{\bold{PE=m*g*h}}

Replace and solve:

  • \boxed{\bold{PE=45\ kg*\ 9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*2\ m}}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{PE=882\ J}}}

The potential energy of the sled is <u>882 Joules</u>.

Greetings.

Anne lifts a 9.0 kg barbell with an upward force of 120 N. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the barbell while Anne i
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

<h2>13.33 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{120}{9}  \\  = 13.3333333...

We have the final answer as

<h3>13.33 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
