How does friction affect a machine efficiency?

1 answer:

5 0

It wears down its components causing it to not work as effectively, it also creates heat which can cause(according on the machine) it to burn out. Another Immediate problem is that it can slow the machine causing it to lose efficiency.

A tight knot can be easily opens by using a longer spanner. Give reasons

kobusy [5.1K]

It is because the effort distance is greater than the load distance

Explanation:

As we know, Effort×effort distance = load × load distance

So when effort distance is increases,

The effort decreases

So when the spanner’s handle is long

A tight knot can easily be opened by less effrot

A satellite was in two separate crashes. In both crashes, the satellite had the same mass. Engineers want to know about the spee

irina1246 [14]

Answer & Explanation:

Crashing into the asteroid would cause the satellite to slow down, stop, or reverse direction, because it is a force in the opposite direction to the satellite's motion. Whichever crash was a stronger force would cause it to change motion more. It takes a stronger force to change the velocity of a more massive object.

An electron is isolated from an atom and exists in vacuum. A group of scientists collectively state that they can remove part of

lesya692 [45]

D) Partial charge cannot be removed, because charge is a discrete quantity that may exist only at certain values

Explanation:

The electric charge of an object is a property of the object that is related to the ability of the object to experience/exert an electric force: if the object is electrically charge, then it is attracted or repelled by other electrically charged object.

The electric charge of an object depends on the amount of charged particles it has on it. In particular, the fundamental particles that carry electric charge are:

Protons: they carry electric charge of +e
Electrons: they carry electric charge of -e

Where "e" is the fundamental charge ( $e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ ). Therefore, one proton carry a charge of +e and one electron carry a charge of -e.

An electron is a fundamental particle: this means that it cannot be divided into smaller particles. This also means that it is not possible to remove part of the charge of the electron: in fact, it is said that electric charge exists only as discrete values, being a multiple of $e$ . Therefore, the correct statement is

D) Partial charge cannot be removed, because charge is a discrete quantity that may exist only at certain values

It decomposes in a first-order reaction with a rate constant of 14 s–1. how long would it take for an initial concentration of 0

VikaD [51]

The rate constant of a reaction can be computed by the ratio of the changes in the concentration and time take taken for it to decompose. Thus, if the rate constant is given to be 14 M/s, we have

$rate = \frac{-(C_{new} - C_{old})}{t}$

where C are the concentration values and t is the time taken for it to decompose.

$14 = \frac{-(0.02 - 0.06)}{t}$
$t = 0.003 s$

Thus, it will take 0.003 s for it to decompose.
Answer: 0.003 s
