Answer:

<h2>96 Joules</h2>

Explanation:

We know that efficiency is the ratio of output power by input power. i.e. Efficiency describes the quality of machine or system how good it is.

Solution,

Energy input of system = 120 J

Efficiency = 80% = \frac{80}{100}  = 0.8

Now,

According to definition,

Efficiency = \frac{output}{input}

Cross multiplication:

output \:  =  \: 0.8 \times 120

Calculate the product

output \:  = 96 \: joules

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

-58.876 kJ

Explanation:

m = mass of air = 1 kg

T₁ = Initial temperature = 15°C

T₂ = Final temperature = 97°C

Cp = Specific heat at constant pressure = 1.005 kJ/kgk

Cv = Specific heat at constant volume = 0.718 kJ/kgk

W = Work done

Q = Heat = 0 (since it is not mentioned we are considering adiabatic condition)

ΔU = Change in internal energy

Q = W+ΔU

⇒Q = W+mCvΔT

⇒0 = W+mCvΔT

⇒W = -mCvΔT

⇒Q = -1×0.718×(97-15)

⇒Q = -58.716 kJ

A 6.9 kg object is suspended by a string from the ceiling of an elevator. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Determine t
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Tension, T = 87.63  N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the object, m = 6.9 kg

The string is acting in the upward direction, a = 2.9 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

As the lift is accelerating upwards, it means the net force acting on it is given by :

T = m(a+g)

= 6.9 (2.9+9.8)

= 6.9(2.7)

= 87.63  N

So, the tension in the string is 87.63  N.

Answer:

Decreases/Reduces

Explanation:

Fill in the blank:

Consider the equation Work = Force X Distance.

<em>If a machine  increases the distance over which a force is exerted, the force </em>

<em>required to do a given amount of work</em> .........

If the work is a constant value, then by isolating force from the equation, we get:

Force = Work / Distance

By increasing the value of the Distance, then the quotient Work. Distance diminishes, and therefore the required force decreases (diminishes, reduces)

Answer: Decreases/Reduces

A 38-kg canoe breaks free from its dock and floats downriver at a speed of 2.2 m/s. What is the momentum of the canoe? 48.0 m/s
Brut [27]
Momentum of a body is calculated by multiplying the mass of a moving body with its velocity. When a body is at rest it has zero momentum since the velocity is also zero.
In this case the momentum of the canoe will be;
 38 kg × 2.2 m/s = 83.6 kgm/s
Therefore, the correct answer is 83.6 kg m/s
