A tool or machine's work efficiency is represented by the ratio of the amount of energy exerted and the amount of work done by the object. Thus, if you exert 1500 J work and the hammer does 825 J, the work efficiency is 

Efficiency = \frac{825}{1500} = 0.55
Efficiency = 55%

Thus, the efficiency of the hammer is 55%.

Answer: 55%

Which is true about carbon-12 compared with carbon-13
creativ13 [48]
E mass number of any given atom depends solely on the number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. The mass number of any atom can be determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons. (Mathematically this is stated as Mass Number = Protons + Neutrons). For instance, a Carbon atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons will have a mass number of 12AMU. However, a Carbon atom with 6 protons and 8 Neutrons will have a mass number of 14AMU. They are both Carbon atoms, however they each have a different mass number. Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons, and therefore, different mass numbers, are called isotopes. Isotopic symbols are used to indicate isotopes of the same elements. In the following isotopic symbols the lower number is the atomic number…it is the number of protons. The upper number is the mass number, it represents to sum of the protons and neutrons in the atoms nucleus.

One of the longer sides of a kite is 39 feet. one of the shorter sides is 25 feet. half the length of the shorter diagonal is 15
pychu [463]
The area of a triangle is found by multiplying the height of the triangle by the length of the base and dividing them both by 2. The length of the shorter side in the equation is useless information, so just multiply 39 by 25 and divide that by 2. A=487.5 sq ft. Also, that's a pretty big kite.
