A machine can never be 100% efficient because some work is always lost due to the lack of materials or equipment that would convert work by 100%. It follows the second law of entropy. The ideal engine is known as Carnot’s engine having a 100% efficiency. So far, no engine has ever gotten to 100%.

At what distance of separation, or, must two 5.87*10^-8 coulomb charges be positioned in order for the repulsive force between t
kupik [55]

Explanation:

r^2= 9×10^9 × 5.87×5.87×10^-16 / 64.9

=47.7× 10^-8

so taking sq. root

r = 6.9 ×10^-4 m

or

r= 6.9×10^ -2 cm

this gives the required seperation

Paul [167]

Answer:

(a) Number of electrons per second strike the target is 3.125 x 10¹⁵.

(b) Charge that strikes the target in 0.750 s is 3.75 x 10⁻⁴ C .

Explanation:

(a) Let n be the number of electrons per second strike the target. We know that current (I) is given by the relation :

I = n x e

Here e is charge of electron.

Substitute 0.500 x 10⁻³ A for I and 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C for e in the above equation.

0.500 x 10⁻³ = n x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

n = 3.125 x 10¹⁵

(b) Let q be the charge that strikes the target. We know that :

q = I x t

Here I is current and t is time.

Substitute 0.500 x 10⁻³ A for I and 0.750 s for t in the above equation,

q = 0.500 x 10⁻³ x 0.750

q = 3.75 x 10⁻⁴ C
