An electric motor with a 1200 hp output drives a machine with an efficiency of 60%. What is the energy output of the machine per

kirill [66]

Answer:

536,904 J/s

Explanation:

The energy output from motor is the input energy in the machine.

We know that efficiency is percentage energy ouput to energy input, and expressed as

$n=\frac {E_o}{E_i}$

Where n and E represent efficiency and energy respectively, subscripts o and i represent output and input respectively. Since for the machine we have the input energy then the output will be the product of efficiency and input energy

Energy output=0.6*1200 hp=720 hp

Converting hp to J/s we multiply by 745.7

Energy is 720*745.7=536,904 J/s

If you see a sedimentary rock outcrop and red layers of sand are on top of pale yellow layers of sand, what do you know for sure

neonofarm [45]

Answer: The yellow layer is definitely older than the red layer

Explanation: According to Nicolaus Steno's law of superposition and original horizontality. Older rocks underlie younger rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are usually deposited in horizontal layers in which each stratigraphic layer is laid down before another can be deposited upon it.

The red layer, in addition to being older, is also likely to have undergone intense oxidation due to earlier exposure.

For a given wave IF frequency doubles the wavelength

motikmotik

Answer:

C is halved

Explanation:

The frequency and the wavelength of a wave are related by the equation:

$v=f\lambda$

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

From the equation above, we see that for a given wave, if the wave is travelling in the same medium (and so, its speed is not changing), then the frequency and the wavelength are inversely proportional to each other.

Therefore, if the frequency doubles, the wavelength will halve in order to keep the speed constant:

$\lambda = \frac{v}{f}\\\lambda' = \frac{v}{f'}=\frac{v}{2f}=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{v}{f})=\frac{\lambda}{2}$
