Efficiency is completing a task as fast a possible the the least amount of effort.
Answer:
0.5 m/s²
Explanation:
according to Newton's second law, we are goven a relationship between force, mass and acceleration, with the formula:
F = m×a
F for force
m for mass
a for acceleration
we use the given data and get:
20 = 40×a
we find a=20/40=0.5m/s²
Answer:
An apple hanging at a branch has potential energy due its position. It can be written as PE= mgh where m is the mass of the apple h is the distance between the apple and the ground and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
as the apple falls from the tree it loses its potential energy and gains kinetic energy due to the movement of the apple. Its kinetic energy will be given by KE= 1/2mv² where m is the mass of the apple and v is the speed with which the apple falls.
As the apple falls the height or the distance reduces and PE becomes reduces. But it gains Kinetic energy due to its speed.
But when the apple falls to the ground and comes to rest its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.
thus the total energy remains the same. it changes from one form to the other but remains unaltered.
The wires is what is needed to put together the whole thing, kinda like glue when you're gluing a piece of paper on it.
Anyways, the battery is the main source and main energy per say.
That energy that comes from the battery, thanks to the wires, it can transfer that said energy to both the switch and light bulb.
And as you flick the switch, it depends of how you put it together, there's two options, turning the light bulb on or turning it off.
Though it doesn't mean that since the light bulb is connected to the battery makes the bulb turn on no matter what since the switch can cancel the main source's energy.

Here’s my work to your question. I used Newton’s Second Law and a kinematics equation to arrive at the answer.
