The value of efficiency is never 100% or more in practice. why​

Physics
1 answer:
Alona [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: Because of presence of friction in most cases as friction exists in ever machine/body, so whenever it works, friction causes heat and sound energy as well, hence, proving that a system cannot be 100% efficient due to friction.

When energy is transferred to air, what happens to the particles of air? (1 point) They move slower. They move faster. They cool
zubka84 [21]
This question is a critical question. as we all know, when energy is added to any state of water, the particles move faster. and when energy is taken away from any state of water, the particles reduce speed. same with the particles of air. when energy is added; they move faster. when energy is removed; they move slower. so the answer is they move faster

a steel ball bearing is released from a height hhh and rebounds after hitting a steel plate to a height hhh. what is true about
lbvjy [14]

In collision of the steel ball and the steel plate, the collision is an inelastic collision and there is loss in the kinetic energy.

<h3>What are collisions?</h3>

Collisions occur when two objects that are moving in the same directions or in different direction meet each other and collide.

There are two types of collisions:

  • elastic collision - the kinetic energy is conserved
  • inelastic collision - there is a loss in kinetic energy

In the collision of the steel ball and the steel plate, there is loss in the kinetic energy of the steel ball which is converted to sound energy.

In conclusion, the collision of the steel and steel plate is an inelastic collision.

When you stretch a spring 20 cm past its natural length, it exerts a force of 8
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

40 N/m

Explanation:

F = -kx (This is the Hooke's Law equation)

F is the force the spring exerts = 8 N

-k = spring constant

x = displacement (The distance stretched past it's natural length) = 20cm

x needs to be in meters, and 20 cm is = to 0.2 meters

Finally:

8N = -k (0.2m)

-k = 8N / 0.2 m

k = -40 N/m
