Efficiency = (Wanted) energy out ÷ energy in × 100

Energy in = 400J
Wanted Energy out = 240J

Energy cannot be used up, only transferred, so the remaining energy is most likely to be transferred into unwanted energy (loss of energy) such as heat energy.

Efficiency = 240 ÷ 400 × 100
Efficiency = 0.6 × 100
Efficiency = 60%

A. What did the neuron say to the muscle say? (Use your basic physiological knowledge, such as the function of
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Somatic motor neurons originate in the central nervous system, project their axons to skeletal muscles (such as the muscles of the limbs, abdominal, and intercostal muscles), which are involved in locomotion.

Explanation:

Muscles move on commands from the brain. Single nerve cells in the spinal cord, called motor neurons, are the only way the brain connects to muscles. When a motor neuron inside the spinal cord fires, an impulse goes out from it to the muscles on a long, very thin extension of that single cell called an axon.

Answer plz also give reason
user100 [1]

See this suggested solution.

1. Let a force F' is the vector sum of the forces P and Q, then it is shown on the attached picture and marked with red color.

2. according to the condition the force F holds the object, then F should have the same length as the force F' and the opposite direction.

3. using the conditions described in 2. the answer is C.

A 38-kg canoe breaks free from its dock and floats downriver at a speed of 2.2 m/s. What is the momentum of the canoe? 48.0 m/s
Brut [27]
Momentum of a body is calculated by multiplying the mass of a moving body with its velocity. When a body is at rest it has zero momentum since the velocity is also zero.
In this case the momentum of the canoe will be;
 38 kg × 2.2 m/s = 83.6 kgm/s
Therefore, the correct answer is 83.6 kg m/s

Compare the energy consumption of two commonly used items in the household. Calculate the energy used by a 1.20 kW toaster oven,
9966 [12]

Answer:

The energy consumption by toaster oven is 432 kJ and that of fluorescent light (CFL) bulb is 435 kJ.

Explanation:

Power of toaster oven, P = 1.2 kW

Time, t = 6 minutes = 360 s

The energy used by toaster oven is given by :

E=P\times t\\\\E=1.2\times 10^3\times 360\\\\E=432000\ J\\\\E=432\ kJ

Power of fluorescent light (CFL) bulb, P' = 11 W

Time, t' = 11 h = 39600 s

Energy used by fluorescent light (CFL) bulb is given by :

E'=P'\times t'\\\\E'=11\times 39600\\\\E'=435600\ J\\\\E'=435\ kJ

So, the energy consumption by toaster oven is 432 kJ and that of fluorescent light (CFL) bulb is 435 kJ.
