The principle of work states that the ratio of work output to work input is always

Physics

snow_lady [41]3 years ago

Answer:

work output is always less than work input - the ratio is less than 1.

Explanation:

This principle comes from the fact that a machine or system cannot produce more work than is supplied to it, because this would violate the energy conservation law (work is a type of mechanical energy).

In theoretical machines called "ideal machines" the input work is the same as the output work, but these machines are only theoretical because in real applications there is always some type of energy loss, either in heat produced by a machine or processes for its operation, for this reason the output work is always less than the input work.

Regarding the ratio work output to work input:

\frac{WO}{WI} < 1

because work input WI is always greater than work output WO.

Astronauts use a centrifuge to simulate the acceleration of a rocket launch. The centrifuge takes 40.0 s to speed up from rest t
Vinvika [58]

Answer

Time period T = 1.50 s

time t = 40 s

r = 6.2 m

a)

Angular speed ω = 2π/T

                              = \dfrac{2\pi }{1.5}  

                              = 4.189 rad/s

Angular acceleration α = \dfrac{\omega}{t}

                                      = \dfrac{4.189}{40}

                                      = 0.105 rad/s²

Tangential acceleration a = r α = 6.2 x 0.105 = 0.651 m/s²

b)The maximum speed.

       v = 2πr/T

          = \dfrac{2\pi \times 6.2}{1.5}

          = 25.97 m/s

So centripetal acceleration.

        a = \dfrac{v^2}{r}

          = \dfrac{25.97^2}{6.2}

          =  108.781 m/s^2

          = 11.1 g    

in combination with the gravitation acceleration.

a_{total} = \sqrt{(11.1g)^2+g^2}

a_{total}= 11.145 g

A car starts from rest and accelerated at a rate of 9m/s squared for 6.5 seconds. How much distance was covered by the car?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

58.5 meters

Explanation:

1. Find your formula. Use distance = speed x time for this problem

2. Plug in the given information. d (for distance) = 9m/s^2 * 6.5 s

3. Multiply number AND units. d = 58.5m

4. Check to make sure units & numbers make sense. In this case check that the answer is a lot bigger than what we stated with and that our units go with distance

Which environment is least likely to support protists
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

A: Soil

Explanation:

Protists need a moist environment to survive, and shallow ponds, oceans, and blood is all moist. So, the answer would be the soil, because that is the least moist environment out of these options.
