The thermal efficiency of an engine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}
where
W is the work done by the engine
Q is the heat absorbed by the engine to do the work

In this problem, the work done by the engine is W=200 J, while the heat exhausted is Q=600 J, so the efficiency of the machine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}= \frac{200 J}{600 J}=0.33 = 33 \%

A satellite is to be launched into an orbit of radius,r Show that v = 2gr, where V is the
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

We start by using the conservation law of energy:

\Delta{K} + \Delta{U} = 0

or

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 - G\dfrac{mM}{r} = 0

Simplifying the above equation, we get

v^2 = 2G\dfrac{M}{r}

We can rewrite this as

v^2 = 2\left(G\dfrac{M}{r^2}\right)r

Note that the expression inside the parenthesis is simply the acceleration due to gravity g so we can write

v^2 = 2gr

where v is the launch velocity.

A material through which charges cannot move easily?
Naily [24]

Answer: A material that does not easily allow a charge to pass through it is called an Plastic and rubber are good insulators. Many types of electric wire are covered with plastic, which insulates well. The plastic allows a charge to be conducted from one end of the wire to the other, but not through the sides of the wire.
