Answer:

The length of the solar day will get shorter.

Explanation:

  • The blue planet Earth not only rotates around it's own axis but also rotates around the Sun and everyday it moves a little bit around the axis.
  • Since the speed of the Earth's rotation on it's own axis and around the Sun is constant we don't feel the effects of the rotation.We can only feel the motion if the earth changes it's rotation speed.
  • If by any means or chance the Earth stopped spinning (stopped rotation) then the atmosphere surrounding the Earth would be in motion and all the Earth's land would be scoured clean.

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.

Your GPS shows that your friend’s house is 10.0 km away. But there is a big hill between your houses and you don’t want to bike
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The value is c  = 8 \  km

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance of friends house from your point is a =  10 \  km

The distance of your friends street from your street is b =  6 \  km \  in the \ direction \  towards \  the  \  north

The diagram illustrating this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the diagram we can apply by Pythagoras theorem as follows

a^2 =  b^2 +  c^2

=>     c  =  \sqrt{^2 -  b^2}

=>     c  =  \sqrt{ 10^2 -  6^2}

=>     c  = 8 \  km

A circular window of 30 cm diameter in a submarine can withstand a maximum force of 5.20 × 105 N. The maximum depth in a lake to
Svetach [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

         F = 5.20 \times 10^{5} N

         g = 9.8 m/s

         radius = \frac{diameter}{2}

                    = \frac{30 cm}{2} = 15 cm = 0.15 m   (as 1 m = 100 cm)

Formula to calculate depth is as follows.

        F = \rho \times g \times h \times A

or,      h = \frac{F}{\rho \times g \times A}        

       h = \frac{5.2 \times 10^{5}}{1000 \times 9.8 \times (3.1416 \times (0.15 m^{2})}

           = 751 m

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum depth in a lake to which the submarine can go without damaging the window is closest 750 m.
