3 0

Answer:

80%

Explanation:

Efficiency of machine = work output/work input  ×100 %

From question, work output = 20J

Work input = 25J.

Therefore efficiency = 20/25 × 100 %

Efficiency = 20×4 %

Efficiency = 80%

What is the ratio of thicknesses of crown glass and water that would contain the same number of wavelengths of light?
Serhud [2]

Answer:

the thickness of the glass divided by thickness of water is going to be 1.333 divided by 1.52, which is 0.877. So, the height of this glass, in order to have the same number of wavelengths as in water, the height of the glass will be 0.877 times the height of the water, and so it will be smaller.

4. What is the electric field strength 1.4 nm from a charge of 4.7 cC?
pentagon [3]

The electric field strength is 2.16\cdot 10^{26} N/C

Explanation:

The strength of the electric field produced by a single point charge is given by:

E=k\frac{q}{r^2}

where

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q is the magnitude of the charge

r is the distance from the charge at which the field strength is calculated

For the charge in the problem, we have:

q=4.7 cC = 0.047 C is the charge

r=1.4 nm = 1.4\cdot 10^{-9} m

Therefore, the electric field strength is

E=(8.99\cdot 10^9)\frac{0.047}{(1.4\cdot 10^{-9})^2}=2.16\cdot 10^{26} N/C
