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.

 Why does a child in a wagon seem to fall backward when you give the wagon a sharp pull forward? 15. What force is needed to acc
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Force, F = 77 N

Explanation:

A child in a wagon seem to fall backward when you give the wagon a sharp pull forward. It is due to Newton's third law of motion. The forward pull on wagon is called action force and the backward force is called reaction force. These two forces are equal in magnitude but they acts in opposite direction.

We need to calculate the force is needed to accelerate a sled. It can be calculated using the formula as :

F = m × a

Where

m = mass = 55 kg

a = acceleration = 1.4 m/s²

F=55\ kg\times 1.4\ m/s^2

F = 77 N

So, the force needed to accelerate a sled is 77 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A roller coaster speeds up with constant acceleration for 2.3 s until it reaches a velocity of 35 m/s. During this time, the rol
Arada [10]

The initial velocity is 0.65 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the roller coaster is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

s=(\frac{u+v}{2})t

where

s is the displacement

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time

For the roller coaster in this problem:

v = 35 m/s

t = 2.3 s

s = 41 m

Solving the equation for u, we find the initial velocity:

u=\frac{2s}{t}-v=\frac{2(41)}{2.3}-35=0.65 m/s
