<span>The efficiency is the useful energy (or power) you get out of a system, divided by the energy (or power) you put in.
</span><span> If the efficiency is 8.2%, that means you get 8.2% * 21 W = 1.72 W of useful power out.
</span>Energy is just power multiplied by time, so 1.72 W * 1 s = 1.72 J<span>.</span>

The heaviest piece of equipment ever carried by plane was 12,400.05kg generator built in Germany in 1993.How far above the groun
nadezda [96]

Answer:

754.6 m

Explanation:

The GPE (Gravitational potential energy) of an object with respect to the ground is given by

GPE = mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the heigth above the ground

Here we have

m = 12,400.05 kg is the mass

GPE = 91,700,000.00J is the GPE

Solving the formula for h, we find the heigth:

h=\frac{GPE}{mg}=\frac{91,700,000.00J}{(12,400.05 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)}=754.6 m

Why is it necessary to use oil in conjunction with the 100x lens but not the other objectives?
Setler [38]

Because the refractive indexes of the immersion oil and the glass microscope slide are the same; the oil prevents the refraction of the incoming light rays.

An invisible space is present between the slide and the lens that contains air.

When the light rays fall on the slide and lens they might get refracted due to air present between them.

If the rays get refracted then the diameter of the objective lens will expand further.

So in order to prevent the refraction of light, it is very important to lubricate the surface of the lens because without oil the light rays refract from their original path.

Interactive LearningWare 4.1 reviews the approach taken in problems such as this one. A 1800-kg car is traveling with a speed of
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

F= 4788 N

Explanation:

Because the car moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formula:

vf²=v₀²+2*a*d Formula (1)

Where:  

d:displacement in meters (m)  

v₀: initial speed in m/s    

vf: final speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s²

Data

d=36.9 m

v₀=14.0 m/s m/s    

vf= 0  

Calculating of the acceleration of the car

We replace dta in the formula (1)

vf²=v₀²+2*a*d

(0)²=(14)²+2*a*(36.9)

-(14)²= (73.8) *a

a= - (196) /  (73.8)

a= - 2.66 m/s²

Newton's second law of the car in direction  horizontal (x):

∑Fx = m*ax Formula (2)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in direction x-axis (N)

m : mass (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

Data

m=1800 Fkg

a= - 2.66 m/s²

Magnitude of the horizontal net force (F) that is required to bring the car to a halt in a distance of 36.9 m :

We replace data in the formula (2)

-F= (1800 kg) * ( -2.66 m/s² )

F= 4788 N

Astronauts measure their mass by measuring the period of oscillation when sitting in a chair connected to a spring. The Body Mas
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

55 kg

Explanation:

spring constant (k) = 600 N/m

mass of chair (Mc) = 12 kg

period of oscillation of chair and man (T) = 2.1 s

what is the mass of the astronaut (Ma) ?

mass of the astronaut (Ma) = total mass (Mt) - mass of chair (Mc)

where

  • total mass (Mt) = \frac{T^{2}}{4π^{2}}k

       taking π as 3.142

       total mass (Mt) = \frac{2.1^{2}}{4 x 3.142^{2}}600

       total mass (Mt) = 67 kg

therefore

mass of astronaut = 67 - 12 = 55 kg
