it is becoz some of the input is used to overcome friction

Explanation:

The output work is always less than the input work because some of the input work is used friction force, therefore efficiency is always less than one

A steel ball with mass m is suspended from the ceiling at the bottom end of a light, 17.0-m-long rope. The ball swings back and
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

1. 18.25 m/s

2. 0 m/s

Explanation:

1.So the centripetal acceleration of the ball at this lowest point must be, taking gravity into account

a_c = \frac{T - mg}{m} = \frac{3mg - mg}{m} = 2g

The speed at this point would then be

v^2 = a_c r = 2gr = 2*9.8*17 = 333.2

v = \sqrt{333.2} = 18.25 m/s

2. Similarly, if T = mg, then the centripetal acceleration must be

a_c = \frac{T - mg}{m} = \frac{mg - mg}{m} = 0

As the ball has no centripetal acceleration, its speed must also be 0 as well.

If a storm is 7.5 kilometers away how much time is expected between observation of lightning and thurder?
Romashka [77]

Answer:

21.9 seconds

Explanation:

lets say the speed of sound at room temp 343m/s and one kilometer is 1000 meters. so 7.5 kilometers is equal to 7500 meters and we divide this number by 343 and we get 21.8 seconds

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

d

Explanation:

a and b: it vibrates in both the difference is whether you hear the sound or not the lack or presence of molecules does not hinder the timing fork from vibrating but can hinder you from hearing since sound is a mechanical wave therefore require a medium bringing us to (c) these vibrations are transmitted because there is presence of a medium i.e air molecules so sound can be heard

but in (c) it is true since the vibrations are created but are not transmitted to your ears due to lack of a medium
