Efficiency

Explanation:

Efficiency is a ratio/percentage that is useful in comparing the energy transferred by a device to the total energy supplied to it.

  Percentage efficiency = \frac{energy input}{total energy supplied} x 100

  • As with most system, none is 100% efficient.
  • During energy is transferred some are lost and only a little portion is used in doing actual work by the machine.
  • This validates the third law of thermodynamics which proposes that no system is 100% efficient.
  • A 100% efficiency implies total energy input is used doing all the work.
  • This is impossible. The bulk of the energy goes into heating the system.

Identical isolated conducting spheres 1 and 2 have equal charges and are separated by a distance that is large compared with the
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

F = 0.1575 N

Explanation:

When the third sphere touches the first sphere, the charge is distributed between both spheres, then now the first sphere has only half of his original charge.

In this moment then

Sphere one has a charge = Q/2

Sphere three has a charge = Q/2

Now when the third sphere touches the second sphere again the charge is distributed in a manner that both sphere has the same charge.

How the total charge is Q = Q/2 + Q = 3/2Q, when the spheres are separated each one has 3/4Q

Sphere two has a charge = 3/4Q

Sphere three has a charge = 3/4Q

The electrostatic force that acts on sphere 2 due to sphere 1 is:

F = \frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2} }{r^{2} }

F= \frac{K(Q/2)(3Q/4)}{r^{2} }

how \frac{KQ^{2} }{r^{2} } = 0.42

Then

F = \frac{0.42*3}{8}

F = 0.1575 N

Correct option is

C

3 cm

RI=apparent depthreal depth

Substituting, 34=apparentdepth12

Therefore, apparent depth=412×3=9

A person wants to make a metronome for music practice. He uses a 35-g object attached to a spring to serve as the time standard.
alukav5142 [94]

To develop this problem it will be necessary to apply the concepts related to the frequency of a spring mass system, for which it is necessary that its mathematical function is described as

f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Here,

k = Spring constant

m = Mass

Our values are given as,

m = 35g = 35*10^{-3}kg

f = 1 Hz

Rearranging to find the spring constant we have that,

k = (2\pi f \sqrt{m})^2

k = 4\pi^2 f^2 m

k = (4) (\pi)^2 (1) (35*10^{-3})

k = 1.38N/m

Therefore the spring constant is 1.38N/m

A 5.50-kg object is hung from the bottom end of a vertical spring fastened to an overhead beam. The object is set into vertical
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

17.71N/m

Explanation:

The period of the spring is expressed according to the expression;

T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \\

m is the mass of the object

k is the force constant

Given

m = 5.50kg

T = 3.50s

Substitute into the formula;

T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \\3.5 = 2 (3.14) \sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} } \\3.5 = 6.28 \sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} } \\\frac{3.5}{6.28} =  \sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} } \\0.557 = \sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} } \\square \ both \ sides\\0.557^2 = (\sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} })^2 \\0.3106 = \frac{5,5}{k}\\k = \frac{5.5}{0.3106}\\k =  17.71N/m

Hence the force constant of the spring is 17.71N/m
