How friction reduces the efficiency of machines

Chemistry
1 answer:
Oksi-84 [34.3K]3 years ago
8 0

Hello,

Work is done when a force causes an object to move in the same direction that the force is applied..... Friction reduces efficiency because when two surfaces slide past each other, friction resists their motion, and in real machines, some input work is always used to overcome friction.

Hope this helps!!!! Happy Holidays!!!! (:

Classify each of the following word equations as a synthesis, decomposition, single displacement, or double displacement reactio
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

12: This is decomposition because nitrogen triiodide is breaking apart.

13: This is double displacement because the elements in the compounds are "switching".

14: This is synthesis because the water and carbon dioxide are combining.

15: This is also synthesis because the hydrogen and oxygen are combining.

16: This is single displacement because the sodium is "switching" the element it's bonding with.

Solve the following problem. Give your answer to the correct number of significant figures. a. 20.0 meters x 0012.65 meters b. 0
Nezavi [6.7K]

Explanation:

For multiplication or division, the rule is to count the number of significant figures in each number being multiplied or divided and then limit the significant figures in the answer to the lowest count.

a. 20.0 meters x 0012.65 meters

The numbers are;

20.0 (3 s.f) and 12.65 (4 s.f)

The multiplication gives; 253

Since 253 is already in 3 s.f, that's the answer.

b. 002.5 × 103 meters + 3.50 × 102 meters

The numbers are;

002.5 (2 s.f), 103 (3 s.f), 3.50 (3 s.f) and 102 (3 s.f)

002.5 × 103 = 257.5 = 260 (2 s.f)

3.50 × 102 = 357 = 360 (2 s.f)

260 + 360 = 620
