(A) A device that converts heat into work with 100% efficiency

It clearly violates the second law of thermodynamics because it warns that while all work can be turned into heat, not all heat can be turned into work. Therefore, despite the innumerable efforts, the efficiencies of the bodies have only been able to reach 60% at present.

It requires a force of 100 N to stretch a spring of negligible mass by a distance of 0.1 m. If the spring instead stretches a di
Mariana [72]

by the formula of spring force we know that

F = kx

here we know that

F = 100 N

x = 0.1 m

now we will have

100 = k \times 0.1

k = 1000 N/m

now by similar way if the stretch in spring is 0.25 m

force is given by

F = kx

F = 1000 \times 0.25

F = 250 N

so it will require F = 250 N force

When the lights of an automobile are switched on, an ammeter in series with them reads 12 A and a voltmeter connected across the
Anarel [89]

Answer:

a) Emf of battery = 15.6 V

b) Current through the starting motor = 104 A

Explanation:

The image for the question seem not to be attached but, when the starting motor wasn't connected, the lights are in series with the battery connection and when the starting motor is connected, it is in parallel with the lights.

a) For this part, we use the information when the starting motor isn't connected.

Let the emf of the battery be E = ?

The voltage across the terminals be V = 15 V

Let the internal resistance of the battery be R = 0.05 ohms

And the current in the circuit be I = 12 A

Since the internal resistance is modelled to be in series with the battery, the loop equation for this circuit will be

E = V + IR

E = 15 + (12)(0.05) = 15 + 0.6 = 15.6 V

From this information now, we can obtain the resistance of the lights.

From Ohm's law,

Voltage across the lights = 15 V

Current through the lights = 12 A

Resistance of the lights = R₀

V = IR₀

R₀ = (15/12) = 1.25 ohms

b) Now, the starting motor is connected and the resistance in the circuit is if the form

Internal resistance in series with the parallel combination of resistance of starting motor and the resistance of the lights.

Current through the lights = 8.0 A

Voltage across the lights = IR₀ = 8×1.25 = 10 V.

Since the starting motor is in parallel with the lights, they will have the same voltage across them, that is, 10 V

But the voltage across the internal resistance = (Emf of battery) - (Voltage across the parallel combination of lights and starting motor) = 15.6 - 10 = 5.6 V

Current through the internal resistance = (5.6/0.05) = 112 A

Current through the starting motor = 112 - 8 = 104 A

Hope this Helps!!!

Why is the weight of the ruler not include in the calculation of moment?​
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Since the distance between the pivot and its weight is zero, the moment of its weight about the pivot (= weight × 0) is zero. Hence, the weight of the ruler can be ignored.

Hope this helps:)

Mrs. Walker has on new shoes! When she walks down the waxed hall floors she slips and slides. What could Mrs. Walker do to help
givi [52]
She could choose to wear shoes designed to have more friction on the bottom, so she won’t slip as easily... (or she could get like a walker or something to hold onto if she really wanted to show off her new shoes)
