Answer:

A. Some work input is used to overcome friction.

Explanation:

As we know that in real conditions it is not possible to form a surface which do not have any friction or we can say that it is not possible to have a surface which is 100% smooth

So here when a machine absorbs some energy as its input work then some part of this energy is used against frictional force between its moving part and hence the output energy is less than the energy that it absorb.

So output energy is never same as the input energy of a machine.

So correct answer would be

A. Some work input is used to overcome friction.

Two in-phase loudspeakers that emit sound with the same frequency are placed along a wall and are separated by a distance of 5.0
Tema [17]

Answer:

841.5 Hz

Explanation:

Given

y = 50 cm = 0.5 m

d = 5.00 m

L = 12.0 m away from the wall

v = speed of sound = 343 m/s

The image of the scenario is presented in the attached image.

When destructive interference is being experienced from 50 cm (0.5 m) parallel to the wall, the path difference between the distance of the two speakers from the observer is equal to half of the wavelength of the wave.

Let the distance from speaker one to the observer's new position be d₁

And the distance from the speaker two to the observer's new position be d₂

(λ/2) = |d₁ - d₂|

d₁ = √(12² + 3²) = 12.3693 m

d₂ = √(12² + 2²) = 12.1655 m

|d₁ - d₂| = 0.2038 m

(λ/2) = |d₁ - d₂| = 0.2038

λ = 0.4076 m

For waves, the velocity (v), frequency (f) and wavelength (λ) are related thus

v = fλ

f = (v/λ) = (343/0.4076) = 841.5 Hz

Hope this Helps!!!

A ship travels with velocity given by 12, with current flowing in the direction given by 11 with respect to some co-ordinate axe
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

v_x = 11.78 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity of the ship is given as

v = 12 units

the direction of the velocity of the ship is making an angle of 11 degree with the current

so we will have two components of the velocity

1) along the direction of the current

2) perpendicular to the direction of the current

so here we know that the component of the ship velocity along the direction of the current is given as

v_x = v cos\theta

v_x = 12 cos11

v_x = 11.78 m/s

. What is a normal force? It acts against an object slowing it down. It acts perpendicular to an object. It acts with an object
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is basically asking you what the definition of Normal force is. Normal force is the force that pushes back against the weight of something that is sitting (or standing or lying) perpendicular to it. That's why, when you stand on a floor you don't crash through the floor OR go shooting up into space. The Normal force is equal but opposite to your weight. The floor exerts the normal force (pushing up and is positive) while your weight is opposing it (pushing down and is negative.)  Perpendicular is the key word here, I believe.
