Answer:
1/√2
Explanation:
Kinetic energy of a body is expressed as
KE = 1/2mv²
If it's KE is doubled
2KE = 1/2mv1² where v1 is the new speed when the kinetic energy is doubled
To know the value of the amount the velocity has changed, we will divide both equations
2KE/KE = (1/2mv²)/(1/2mv1²)
2 = v²/v1²
(v/v1)² = 2
v/v1 = √2
v1 = v/√2
v1 = 1/√2 × v
The new velocity has changed by
1/√2vinitial
Answer:
NO
Explanation:
No, a machine cannot be 100% efficient. This is due to the movement of the moving parts siding against each other and causing friction. This friction is the one that creates heat and causes wear and tear between moving ports f the machine hence making the machine to decrease in efficiency with time
