Work output of a large machine in a factory is 89,000 joules, and it’s input is 102,000 joules. Work output of a similar machine
mojhsa [17]
(89000/102000)×100
=87.25%

(92000/104000)×100
=88.46%

efficiency is (output/input)×100
if u get confused which way input and output should go, remember the smaller value is always output and it's above in the fraction, then only it's possible to get a efficiency lower than 100.

The Steamboat Geyser in Yellowstone National Park shoots water into the air at 48.0 m/s. How
qwelly [4]

Answer:

The maximum height reached by the water is 117.55 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the water, u = 48 m/s

at maximum height the final velocity will be zero, v = 0

the water is going upwards, i.e in the negative direction of gravity, g = -9.8 m/s².

The maximum height reached by the water is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2gh

where;

h is the maximum height reached by the water

0 = u² + 2gh

0 = (48)² + ( 2 x -9.8 x h)

0 = 2304 - 19.6h

19.6h = 2304

h = 2304 / 19.6

h = 117.55 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the water is 117.55 m.

The coefficient of linear expansion of copper is 17 x 10^-6 K-1. A block of copper 30 cm wide, 45 cm long, and 10 cm thick is he
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The change in volume is 6.885\times 10^{- 5}\

Solution:

As per the question:

Coefficient of linear expansion of Copper, \alpha = 17\times 10^{- 6}\ K^{- 1}

Initial Temperature, T = 0^{\circ} = 273 K

Final Temperature, T' = 100^{\circ} = 273 + 100 = 373 K

Now,

Initial Volume of the block, V = 30\times 45\times 10\times 10^{- 6}\ m^{3} = 0.0135\ m^{3}

V' = V(1 + \gamma \Delta T)

\gamma = 3\alpha

V' = V(1 + 3\alpha \Delta T)

where

V' = Final volume

V' - V= 0.0135\times 17\times 10^{- 6} \times (T' - T))

\Delta V= 0.0135\times 3\times 17\times 10^{- 6} \times (373 - 273)) = 6.885\times 10^{- 5}\

10,500 J of GPE, weight 539 N, how tall is the hill you are sitting on?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

19.48 m

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy = mgh

Current weight = 539 N

Weight = mg = 539 N

Mass x Acceleration = 539 N

Mass x 9.81 = 539

Mass = 54.94 kg

Gravitational potential energy = mgh = 10500 J

                    54.94 x 9.81 x h = 10500

                               h = 19.48 m

Height of sitting = 19.48 m
