Explain why adding oil to the moving parts of a machine can increase its efficiency

Physics
2 answers:
Vinvika [58]3 years ago
6 0
Adding oil to the moving parts of machines can do that because it makes it smoother and takes the rust off of it.
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
4 0
Because oil reduces loss of input work caused due to frictional heat and more output work will be done

A series of evenly timed pulses create a wave that can be described as a _______<br><br> wave.
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Periodic

Explanation:

A periodic (or repetitive) wave has continuously repeating pattern with characteristics such as amplitude, wavelength and frequency. In a periodic wave, a series of pulses that are evenly timed would be created. In other words, the wave pattern in a periodic wave repeats at regular intervals.

An example of a periodic wave is the sound from the strings of a violin.`

What is the magnitude of the average force required to stop an 1200 kg car in 9.0 s if the car is traveling at 80 km/h ? Express
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: 2960N

Explanation:

According to newtons first law of motion, force = mass × acceleration

To get acceleration,

Acceleration = velocity/time

Velocity = 80km/hr

Converting the velocity to m/s

80×1000/1×3600

velocity = 22.2m/s

Time = 9secs

Acceleration=22.2/9

Acceleration = 2.47m/s²

The get the force

F= 1200×2.47

F = 2960N
