How is the percent efficiency of a machine determined?

Physics
1 answer:
NemiM [27]3 years ago
3 0

Since work is the change in kinetic energy, the efficiency of a machine can be stated as the percentage of the output work divided by the input work minus the work lost from to friction and heat. Multiply Eff by 100% to get the efficiency percentage.

As the result of a thermal inversion the prevailing air temperature profile increases 1°C/100m above the ground level. To what m
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

909.1 m

Explanation:

Rate of temperature increase with 100 m elevation = 1°C

h = Maximum Height

Adiabatic lapse rate = -0.65°C/100 m

We have the relation

\dfrac{1^{\circ}C}{100}=\dfrac{15^{\circ}C}{h}+\left(-\frac{0.65}{100}\right)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1^{\circ}C}{100}+\left(-\frac{0.65}{100}\right)=\dfrac{15^{\circ}C}{h}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{15^{\circ}C}{1.65^{\circ}C}\times 100\\\Rightarrow h=909.1\ m

The maximum height is 909.1 m

Work output of a large machine in a factory is 89,000 joules, and it’s input is 102,000 joules. Work output of a similar machine
mojhsa [17]
(89000/102000)×100
=87.25%

(92000/104000)×100
=88.46%

efficiency is (output/input)×100
if u get confused which way input and output should go, remember the smaller value is always output and it's above in the fraction, then only it's possible to get a efficiency lower than 100.

A 64 kg swimmer jumps, with a velocity of 4.2 m/s, off the front of a 25 kg kayak when the kayak is moving forward at a velocity
Crank

Answer:

3.88m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1+m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses

u1 and 2 are the initial velocities

v is the final velocity

Given

m1 = 64kg

u1 = 4.2m/s

m2 = 25kg

u2 = 3.2m/s

Required

Final velocity v

Substitute the given values into the formula

64(4.2)+25(3.2) = (65+25)v

268.8+80 = 90v

348.8 = 90v

v = 348.8/90

v = 3.88m/s

Hence the velocity of the kayak after the swimmer jumps off is 3.88m/s

A metal container with the oil weigh
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

16 kg

Explanation:

M - container

m - oil mass

by definition of density ,

relative density is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water.

relative density = density/ density of water

density of oil = 1.2*1000 kgm⁻³  = 1200 kgm⁻³

1 Litre =10⁻³ m³

oil volume = 80 *10⁻³ m³

mass of oil = density * volume

                   = 1200*80*10⁻³

                   = 96 kg

Mass of container + mass of  oil =112

mass of container = 112 - 96

                              = 16 kg
