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%.

Proved that<br>V = u+at<br>​
kondaur [170]

Answer:

\sf Proof \ below

Explanation:

We know that acceleration is change in velocity over time.

\sf a=\frac{\triangle v}{t}

\sf a=\frac{v-u}{t}

v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity.

Solve for v.

Multiply both sides by t.

\sf at=v-u

Add u to both sides.

\sf at + u=v

A body oscillates with simple harmonic motion along the x-axis. Its displacement varies with time according to the equation x =
abruzzese [7]
I'll tell you how I look at this, although I may be missing something important.

Position = x(t) = 0.5 sin(pt + p/3)

Speed = position' = x'(t) = 0.5 p cos(pt + p/3)

Acceleration = speed' = position ' ' = x ' '(t) = -0.5 p² sin(pt + p/3)

At (t = 1.0),

x ' '(t) = -0.5 p² sin( 4/3 p )

In order to evaluate this, don't I still have to know what 'p' is ? ?

I don't think it can be evaluated with the information given in the question.
