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.

Piston 1 in the figure has a diameter of 1.87 cm.
melisa1 [442]

The force F, necessary to support an object with a mass of 991 kg placed on piston 2 is 373.8 N.

<h3>What is the force required to support the weight on piston 2?</h3>

The  force, F required to support the weight on piston 2 is calculated as follows:

  • F = F₂ * A₁/A₂

f = 991 * 9.81 = 9721.71 N

A₂ = (9.46/2)² = 22.373

A₁ =  (1.87/2)² = 0.874

F = 9721.71 * 0.874/22.373

F = 373.8 N

Inc conclusion, a smaller force is applied to lift the larger force at Piston 2.

A hiker, caught in a rainstorm might absorb 1 liter of water in her clothing. if it is windy so that this amount of water is eva
NeTakaya

Water evaporates at 100⁰C

So change in temperature = 100-20 = 80⁰C

Amount of water to be evaporated = 1 liter = 1L*1kg/liter = 1 kg

Specific heat of water is 1 calorie/gram ⁰C = 4.186 joule/gram =4186 J/kg

So heat required E = mcΔT = 1 * 4186 *80= 334880 J =334.88 kJ

So amount of heat require to evaporate water = 334.88 kJ

(i) a force of 35.0 n is required to start a 6.0-kg box moving across a horizontal concrete floor, (a) what is the coefficient o
Serjik [45]

a. The force applied would be equal to the frictional force.

F = us Fn

where, F = applied force = 35 N, us = coeff of static friction, Fn = normal force = weight

 

35 N = us * (6 kg * 9.81 m/s^2)

us = 0.595

 

b. The force applied would now be the sum of the frictional force and force due to acceleration

F = uk Fn + m a

where, uk = coeff of kinetic friction

 

35 N = uk * (6 kg * 9.81 m/s^2) + (6kg * 0.60 m/s^2)

uk = 0.533
