Engineers who design battery-operated devices such as cell phones and MP3 players try to make them as efficient as possible. An

engineer tests a cell phone and finds that the batteries supply 10,000 J of energy to make 5500 J of output energy in the form of sound and light for the screen. How efficient is the phone?

efficiency= [useful energy transferred ÷ total energy supply]×100%

So, [5500÷10000]×100%=0.55×100

                                        =55%

3. The sum of the players' momenta is equal to the momentum of the players when they're stuck together:

(75 kg) (6 m/s) + (80 kg) (-4 m/s) = (75 kg + 80 kg) v

where v is the velocity of the combined players. Solve for v :

450 kg•m/s - 320 kg•m/s = (155 kg) v

v = (130 kg•m/s) / (155 kg)

v ≈ 0.84 m/s

4. The total momentum of the bowling balls prior to collision is conserved and is the same after their collision, so that

(6 kg) (5.1 m/s) + (4 kg) (-1.3 m/s) = (6 kg) (1.5 m/s) + (4 kg) v

where v is the new velocity of the 4-kg ball. Solve for v :

30.6 kg•m/s - 5.2 kg•m/s = 9 kg•m/s + (4 kg) v

v = (16.4 kg•m/s) / (4 kg)

v = 4.1 m/s

A cruise ship is moving at constant speed through the water. The vacationers on the ship are eager to arrive at their next desti
MArishka [77]

Answer: 1. higher than it was before they started running

Explanation: As the vacationers run towards the back(stern) of the ship the exerting more pressure against the pressure exerted by the wave supporting the moving ship,the pressure exerted on the moving ship will be increased, leading to a slight increase in the speed of the ship compared to the speed before they started running towards the back(stern) of the ship.

Differences between freezing point and melting point (Atleast 5 differences)​
labwork [276]

Answer:

What is freezing point?

A liquid's freezing point is determined at which it turns into a solid. Corresponding to the melting point, the freezing point often rises with increasing pressure. In the case of combinations and for some organic substances, such as lipids, the freezing point is lower than the melting point. The first solid which develops when a combination freezes often differs in composition from the liquid, and the development of the solid alters the composition of the remaining liquid, typically lowering the freezing point gradually. Utilizing successive melting and freezing to gradually separate the components, this approach is used to purify mixtures.

What is melting point?

The temperature at which a purified substance's solid and liquid phases may coexist in equilibrium is referred to as the melting point. A solid's temperature goes up when heat is added to it until the melting point is achieved. The solid will then turn into a liquid with further heating without changing temperature. Additional heat will raise the temperature of the liquid once all of the solid has melted. It is possible to recognize pure compounds and elements by their distinctive melting temperature, which is a characteristic number.

The difference between freezing point and melting point:

  1. While a substance's melting point develops when it transforms from a solid to a liquid, a substance's freezing point happens when a liquid transforms into a solid when the heat from the substance is removed.
  2. When the temperature rises, the melting point can be seen, and when the temperature falls, the freezing point can be seen.
  3. When a solid reaches its melting point, its volume increases; meanwhile, when a liquid reaches its freezing point, its volume decreases.
  4. While a substance's freezing point is not thought of as a distinctive attribute, its melting point is.
  5. While external pressure is a significant component in freezing point, atmospheric pressure is a significant element in melting point.
  6. Heat must be supplied from an outside source in order to reach the melting point for such a state shift. When a material is at its freezing point, heat is needed to remove it from the substance in order to alter its condition.
