The efficiency of the steam engine is 78.9%.

<h3>What is the efficiency of a machine?</h3>

The efficiency of a machine is a measure of the useful work done by the machine as against the work input into the machine.

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

Work output of the steam engine = 225 K

Work input of the steam engine = 285 K

The efficiency of the machine = 225/275 × 100% = 78.9%

Therefore, the efficiency of the steam engine is 78.9%.

irina [24]

Answer:

F = 100 N

Explanation:

The torque is given by the expression

      τ = F x r

where bold letters indicate vectors, the magnitude of this expression is

     τ = F r sin θ

In general, when tightening a nut, the force is applied perpendicular to the arm, therefore  θ = 90 and sin 90 = 1

      τ = F r

      F = τ / r

calculate

      F = 30 / 0.30

      F = 100 N

A bicyclist starts at point P and travels around a triangular path that takes her through points Q and R before returning to the
REY [17]

Answer:

Displacement by cyclist is zero.

Explanation:

In the given question bicyclist is travelling in a rectangular track having P , Q and R edges.

The bicyclist starts from P and travel through Q and R and returned to P again.

We need to find its displacement.

We know displacement  of a body is its difference between its initial position to final position.

Here in the given question the bicyclist returns to P again.

Therefore, total displacement by bicyclist is zero.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Two parallel plates that are initially uncharged are separated by 1.2 mm. What charge must be transferred from one plate to the
Gnoma [55]

Answer: 55.52 *10^-6 C= 55.52 μC

Explanation: In order to solve this question we have to take into account the following expressions:

potential energy stired in a capacitor is given by:

U=Q^2/(2*C)  where Q and C are the charge and capacitance of the capacitor.

then we have:

Q^2= 2*C*U=

C=εo*A/d where A and d are the area and separation of the parallel plates capacitor

Q^2=2*εo*A*U/d=2*8.85*10^-12*1.9*10^-5*11*10^3/(1.2*10^-3)=

=55.52 *10^-6C

A car battery with a 12 V emf and an internal resistance of 0.11 Ω is being charged with a current of 56 A. What are (a) the pot
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Part a)

V = 18.16 V

Part b)

P_r = 345 Watt

Part c)

P = 672 Watt

Part d)

V = 5.84 V

Part e)

P_r = 345 Watt

Explanation:

Part a)

When battery is in charging mode

then the potential difference at the terminal of the cell is more than its EMF and it is given as

\Delta V = E + i r

here we have

E = 12 V

i = 56 A

r = 0.11

now we have

\Delta V = 12 + (0.11)(56) = 18.16 V

Part b)

Rate of energy dissipation inside the battery is the energy across internal resistance

so it is given as

P_r = i^2 r

P_r = 56^2 (0.11)

P_r = 345 W

Part c)

Rate of energy conversion into EMF is given as

P_{emf} = i E

P_{emf} = (56)(12)

P_{emf} = 672 Watt

Now battery is giving current to other circuit so now it is discharging

now we have

Part d)

V = E - i r

V = 12 - (56)(0.11)

V = 12 - 6.16 = 5.84 V

Part e)

now the rate of energy dissipation is given as

P_r = i^2 r

P_r = 56^2 (0.11)

P_r = 345 W

If Earth were completely blanketed with clouds and we couldn’t see the sky, could we learn about the realm beyond the clouds? Wh
Fudgin [204]

The definition of waves that propagate through electric fields is called electromagnetic waves. The earth, despite being covered with clouds, can be 'affected' because waves such as sunlight or the moon have the ability to penetrate and be visible to the inhabitants of the earth. Microwaves and radio waves would be less affected by the clouds that cover the Earth.

Through these waves, you can know that there is beyond the clouds.

Ultraviolet light, microwaves and radio waves are the radiations that penetrate through the clouds and reach the Earth's surface.

Therefore, the answer is Yes, ultraviolet light, microwaves and radio waves are the forms of radiation that penetrate and reach the ground.
