Efficiency is defined as the measure of the amount of work or energy is conserved in a certain process. At all times, in every process, work or energy is always lost or wasted due to certain interference. Not all work given is converted to useful work or energy. Thus , efficiency is calculated by dividing the energy or work output to the energy or work input then the value is multiplied by 100 to express efficiency as percentage.

Efficiency = work output / work input
Efficiency = (1020 J / 1200 J) = 85%

A certain heat engine takes in 300 J of energy from a hot source and then transfers 200 J of that energy to a colder object. Wha
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The efficiency is 0.33, or 33%.

Explanation:

From the thermodynamics equations, we know that the formula for the efficiency of a heat engine is:

\eta=1-\frac{Q_2}{Q_1}

Where η is the efficiency of the engine, Q_1 is the heat energy taken from the hot source and Q_2 is the heat energy given to the cold object. So, plugging the given values in the formula, we obtain:

\eta=1-\frac{200J}{300J}=0.33

This means that the efficiency of the heat engine is 0.33, or 33% (The efficiency of an engine is dimensionless).

A force of 25N acts on a mass of 5.0kg, initially at rest. Calculate the distance travelled before achieving a velocity of 20m/s
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

40m

Explanation:

let's calculate the acceleration first

force = mass × acceleration

rearranging to find acceleration:

acceleration = force ÷ mass

force = 25N, mass = 5.0kg

acceleration = 25 ÷ 5 = 5ms^-2

we can now use the formula v^2 = u^2 + 2as where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration and s = distance

rearranging v^2 = u^2 + 2as the distance is

s = (v^2 - u^2) ÷ 2a

v = 20, u = 0, a = 5

s = (20^2 - 0^2) ÷ (2 × 5) = 40m

the distance is 40m
