The efficiency of the washing machine would be 7.41%.

<h3>What is efficiency?</h3>

The efficiency of any machine is a measure of the useful energy of the machine.

More specifically, the efficiency of a machine is the ratio of the input energy to the output energy.

Mathematically:

Efficiency = output energy/input energy x 100%

For a machine that uses 1039 W of energy, this simply means that the input energy of the machine is 1039 W. However, not all of this energy will be used to work.

  • 274 W is utilized in the production of sound
  • 688 W is wasted as heat

Hence, the amount of useful energy of the machine can be calculated as:

1039 - (274+688) = 77 W

Thus:

Efficiency = 77/1039 x 100

                = 7.41 %

In other words, the efficiency of the washing machine is 7.41% when rounded to 2 decimal places.

A student is measuring the volumes of nectar produced by a flowering plant for an experiment. He measures nectar from 50 flowers
pantera1 [17]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A student is measuring the volumes of nectar produced by a flowering plant for an experiment. He measures nectar from 50 flowers using a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest millilitre (mL). Which statement describes a change that can help improve the results of his experiment?

A.) His measurements will be more precise if he takes measurements from an additional 100 flowers. B.) His measurements will be more accurate if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL. C.) His measurements will be more precise if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL. D.) His measurements will be more accurate if he takes measurements from an additional 100 flowers.

Answer:

His measurements will be more accurate if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL.

Explanation:

In the measurements of volume using most graduated cylinders, the cylinders are calibrated to the nearest tenth owing to the uncertainty in the measurement of volume.

Hence if a cylinder has measures to the nearest milliliter(mL), then he can improve his experiment by using a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL

This mathematical model describes the changes that occur in a sample of
True [87]

The correct answer is D. The movement of the molecules will gradually increase.

Explanation:

At the beginning of the model the state of matter of the water is solid, in this, particles have a defined arrangement and are together, which stops particles from moving freely and only allows them to vibrate. However, as the substance is heated the thermal energy (heat) increases in the sample, this causes particles to move more and the arrangement of it changes. Due to this, when the ice melts and there is liquid water particles move more than in solid states, which makes ice lacks a defined shape. Moreover, as the heat continues to increase the thermal and kinetic energy (movement) increases, indeed in gas state (water vapor) particles will move freely. This means the movement or kinetic energy in particles gradually increases in the model.

What type of eclipse is shown? How do you know?
Sonja [21]
That is a lunar eclipse. At night, when the Earth is between the Sun and the moon, the moon would appear to be red. Just for future reference, a solar eclipse is when the Moon is between the Sun and Earth. Speaking of which, check out the solar eclipse this August!
