The efficiency of the scissor is 200%.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Efficiency is defined as the ratio of output of any instrument or device or machine to the input supplied to it. So the greater the output the greater will be the efficiency of the device.
As here the work done by us on the system is said to be 10 J so this will be equal to the input work done on the system. And the work done by the system i.e., the scissor is 20 J, so this will be the output work.
So, the efficiency is the ratio of output to input as shown below.
Efficiency = = 200
So, the efficiency of the scissor is 200%.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Pressure, P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa
Area of the square surface, A = 10² = 100 m²
We need to find the mass of vertical column of air. We know that, pressure is equal to the force acting per unit area. So,
So, the required mass of the vertical column of air is .
