A machine can never be 100% efficient because some work is always lost due to what?
katrin [286]

A machine can never be 100% efficient because some work is always lost due to the lack of materials or equipment that would convert work by 100%. It follows the second law of entropy. The ideal engine is known as Carnot’s engine having a 100% efficiency. So far, no engine has ever gotten to 100%.

What speed would a fly with a mass of 0.55g need in order to have a kinetic energy of 7.6 •10^4 j?
masya89 [10]

Answer:

16613 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

mass of the fly, m = 0.55 g = 0.55*10^-3 kg

Kinetic Energy of the fly, E = 7.6*10^4 J

Speed of the fly, v = ? m/s

We know that the Kinetic Energy is that energy that an object, in this case, the fly, possesses due to its motion.

The Kinetic Energy, KE of any object is represented by the formula

KE = 1/2 * m * v²

If we substitute the values in the relation, we have,

7.6*10^4 = 1/2 * 0.55*10^-3 * v²

v² = (15.2*10^4) / 0.55*10^-3

v² = 2.76*10^8

v = √2.76*10^8

v = 16613 m/s

Thus, the fly would need a speed of 16.6 km/s in order to have a Kinetic Energy of 7.6*10^4 J

What is the difference between a solar cell and a solar panel
dexar [7]

Solar cells and solar panels are both integral, and closely related, parts of a solar energy system. When reading about solar energy systems, it may seem as if these titles are almost interchangeable. Writers refer to them both when discussing energy production and output, and often do so without explanation of how these parts work. However, each plays a distinct role. Solar cells contain all the parts necessary to convert sunlight to electricity. Solar panels combine and direct all of that energy output.

A car of mass m, traveling at constant speed, rides over the top of a round hill. How do the normal force of the road on the car
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The normal force will be lower than the gravitational force acting on the car. Therefore the answer is N < mg, which is <em>option B</em>.

Explanation:

Over a round hill, the centripetal force acting toward the the radius of the hill supports the gravitational force (mg) of the car. This notion can be expressed mathematically as follows:

At the top of a round hill

Normal force = Gravitational force - centripetal force

At the foot of a round hill

Normal Force = centripetal force + Gravitational force

The drawing shows a large cube (mass = 21.0 kg) being accelerated across a horizontal frictionless surface by a horizontal force
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The blocks must be pushed with a force higher than 359 Newtons horizontally in order to accomplish this friction levitation feat.

Explanation:

The first step in resolving any physics problem is to draw the given scenario (if possible), see the attached image to have an idea of the objects and forces involved.

The large cube in red is being pushed from the left by a force \vec{P} whose value is to be found. That cube has its own weight \vec{w}_1=m_1\vec{g}, and it is associated with the force of gravity which points downward. Newton's third law stipulates that the response from the floor is an upward pointing force on the cube, and it's called the normal force \vec{N}_1.

A second cube is being pushed by the first, and since the force \vec{P} is strong enough it is able to keep such block suspended as if it were glued to the first one, due to friction. As in the larger cube, the smaller one has a weight \vec{w}_2=m_2\vec{g} pointing downwards, but the normal force in this block doesn't point upwards since its 'floor' isn't below it, but in its side, therefore the normal force directs it to the right as it is shown in the picture. Normal forces are perpendicular to the surface they contact. The final force is the friction between both cubes, that sets a resistance of one moving parallel the other. In this case, the weight of the block its the force pointing parallel to the contact surface, so the friction opposes that force, and thus points upwards. Friction forces can be set as Fr=\mu~N, where \mu is the coefficient of static friction between the cubes.

Now that all forces involved are identified, the following step is to apply Newton's second law and add all the forces for each block that point in the same line, and set it as equal its mass multiplied by its acceleration. The condition over the smaller box is the relevant one so its the first one to be analyzed.

In the vertical component: \Sigma F^2_y=Fr-w_2=m_2 a_y Since the idea is that it doesn't slips downwards, the vertical acceleration should be set to zero a_y=0, and making explicit the other forces: \mu N_2-m_2g=0\quad\Rightarrow (0.710)N_2-(4.5)(10)=0\quad\Rightarrow N_2=(4.5)(10)/(0.710)\approx 63.38 [N]. In the last equation gravity's acceleration was rounded to 10 [m/s^2].

In its horizontal component: \Sigma F^2_x=N_2=m_2 a_x, this time the horizontal acceleration is not zero, because it is constantly being pushed. However, the value of the normal force and the mass of the block are known, so its horizontal acceleration can be determined: 63.38=(4.5) a_x \quad \Rightarrow a_x=(63.38)/(4.5)\approx 14.08 [m/s^2]. Notice that this acceleration is higher than the one of gravity, and it is understandable since you should be able to push it harder than gravity in order for it to not slip.

Now the attention is switched to the larger cube. The vertical forces are not relevant here, since the normal force balances its weight so that there isn't vertical acceleration. The unknown force comes up in the horizontal forces analysis: \Sigma F_x=P=m a_x, since the force \vec{P} is not only pushing the first block but both, the mass involved in this equation is the combined masses of the blocks, the acceleration is the same for both blocks since they move together; P=(21.0+4.5) 14.08\approx 359.04 [N]. The resulting force is quite high but not impossible to make by a human being, this indicates that this feat of friction suspension is difficult but feasable.
