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.

Newton’s Second Law of motion defines force in terms of mass and acceleration, F= ma. Which of the following is false? The term
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The forces creating the net force must lie in the same direction.

Explanation:

newton's second law states that the net force acting on the body is equal to the product of mass and the acceleration of the body.

If there are several forces acting on the body in different directions, then we have to find teh net force by using the vector sum and then find the acceleration.

It is not necessary that all the forces acting in the same direction.

if they are in different directions then we have to find the net force by t=using the formula for the vector sum.

A force of 9 pounds stretches a spring 1 foot. A mass weighing 6.4 pounds is attached to the spring, and the system is then imme
mart [117]

Answer:

\frac{d^2x}{dt^2}+\frac{\beta}{m}\frac{dx}{dt}+\frac{k}{m}x=0

Explanation:

let m be the mass attached, let k be the spring constant and let \beta be the positive damping constant.

-By Newton's second law:

m\frac{d^2x}{dt^2}=-kx-\beta \frac{dx}{dt}

where x(t) is the displacement from equilibrium position. The equation can be transformed into:

\frac{d^2x}{dt^2}+\frac{\beta}{m}\frac{dx}{dt}+\frac{k}{m}x=0  shich is the equation of motion.

1. A cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds. What is his<br>acceleration?​
Lapatulllka [165]

The cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration exerted by an object is the measure of change in speed or velocity of that object with respect to time. So the initial and final velocities play a major role in determining the acceleration of the cyclist. As here the initial velocity of the cyclist is the speed at rest and that is given as 0 m/s. Then after 3 seconds, the velocity of the cyclist changes to 9 m/s.

Then acceleration = change in velocity/Time.

Acceleration = \frac{Change in velocity}{Time taken}

Acceleration = (9-0)/3=9/3=3 m/s².

So the cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².

A +1.0 nC charge is at x = 0 cm, a -1.0 nC charge is at x = 1.0 cm and a 4.0 nC at x= 2 cm. What is the electric potential energ
lesantik [10]

Answer:

- 2.7 x 10^-6 J

Explanation:

q1 = 1 nC  at x = 0 cm

q2 = - 1 nC at x = 1 cm

q3 = 4 nC at x = 2 cm

The formula for the potential energy between the two charges is given by

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}

where r be the distance between the two charges

By use of superposition principle, the total energy of the system is given by

U = U_{1,2}+U_{2,3}+U_{3,1}

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{2}q_{3}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{3}q_{1}}{0.02}

U=-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 1\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}+-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.02}

U = - 2.7 x 10^-6 J
