Why machines are never 100 percent efficient

Machines are never 100% efficient because they are made by humans and we make errors and nothing we make is perfect, that's why the machines we build are not 100% accurate or efficient.

<span>The efficiency of an actual machine is never 100% because of the Second law of thermodynamics which states that the quality of energy will decay, eventually becoming heat. This means that some of the work put into the system is transformed (lost) into thermal energy(heat) therefore, causing the percent to reduce.</span>

A cricketer moves his hands backwards when holding a catch
lisov135 [29]
By doing this he increases the time due to which the rate of change momnetemdecreases. that means the ball comes to rest gently and does not hurt the fielder. but, if does not move his hand backwards, then the ball would come to rest in a fraction of second with a high rate of change of momentum. the ball will exert a lot of force on the hands of the fielder which will hurt him.

An astronaut circling the earth at an altitude of 400 km is horrified to discover that a cloud of space debris is moving in the
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

One of the essential concepts to solve this problem is the utilization of the equations of centripetal and gravitational force.

From them it will be possible to find the speed of the body with which the estimated time can be calculated through the kinematic equations of motion. At the same time for the calculation of this speed it is necessary to clarify that this will remain twice the ship, because as we know by relativity, when moving in the same magnitude but in the opposite direction, with respect to the ship the debris will be double speed.

By equilibrium the centrifugal force and the gravitational force are equal therefore

F_c = F_g

\frac{mv^2_{orbit}}{r} = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where

m = mass spacecraft

v = velocity

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of earth

r \rightarrow R+h \Rightarrow Radius of earth and orbit

Re-arrange to find the velocity

\frac{mv^2_{orbit}}{r} = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

\frac{v^2_{orbit}}{r} = \frac{GM}{r^2}

v^2_{orbit}=\frac{GM}{r}

v_{orbit} = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

v_{orbit} = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}

Replacing with our values we have

v_{orbit} = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.98*10^{24})}{6.37*10^6+0.4*10^6}}

v_{orbit} = 7676m/s

From the cinematic equations of motion we have to

t = \frac{d}{2v_{orbit}} \rightarrow Remember that the speed is double for the counter-direction of the trajectories.

Replacing

t = \frac{29000m}{7676m/s}

t = 3.778s

Therefore the time required is 3.778s
