If you're using the machine to heat your workshop, it's 20% efficient.

If you're using it to do work, it's 80% efficient.

Answer:

Efficiency = 80 %      

Explanation:

It is given that,

Work done by the engine, W = 288 J

Heat exhausted by the engine, Q₂ = 72 J

Heat supplied to the engine, Q₁ = 360 J

Efficiency of the heat engine is defined as the ratio of output work to the supplied energy i.e.

\eta=\dfrac{W}{Q_1}

W =  Q₁ - Q₂

So, \eta=1-\dfrac{Q_2}{Q_1}    

\eta=1-\dfrac{72}{360}    

\eta=0.8\times 100

\eta=80\%      

Hence, the correct option is (D) i.e. efficiency = 80 %

Un movil de masa 12Kg sobre el cual estan actuando varias fuerzas F_1=48N, F_2=60N y F_3=30N Calcular la aceleracion con la cual
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Lamentablemente el problema está incompleto, pues no sabemos la dirección en la que se aplican las fuerzas. Por ello, voy a resolver el problema asumiendo dos casos. (abajo se puede ver una imagen donde se describe cada caso)

1) Todas las fuerzas están en la misma dirección.

Entonces la fuerza neta será la suma de las 3 fuerzas, entonces:

F = 48N + 60N + 30N = 138N

Y por la segunda ley de Newton sabemos que:

F = m*a

fuerza igual a masa por aceleración.

Entonces la aceleración está dada por:

a = F/m = 138N/12kg = 11.5 m/s^2

2) Segundo caso, suponemos que F1 es opuesta a F2 y F3

En este caso, la fuerza neta será:

F = F2 + F3 - F1 = 60N + 30N - 48N = 42N

En este caso, la aceleración será:

a = 42N/12kg = 3.5 m/s^2
