In an extremely simplified explanation,
What happens is that the steam (heat) that is generated by the burning of coal is used to rotate the motor of the steam engine.
Answer:
A) incandescent ligth bulb, its efficiency is about 10%
Explanation:
The incandescent bulb, that is, the well-known focus with its warm light, was one of the most useful inventions of the 19th century although its use is currently considered very inefficient. These lamps waste between 80 and 90 percent of the total electricity they consume by turning it into heat. The metal filament thus heated and which is the central part of the bulb, only converts the remaining energy into light. Its service life ranges from 750 to 1,000 hours.
This is why they are used in ovens for food preparation, because of the large amount of heat they generate.
The steam boiler in a power plant depends on the fuel that it is using, but a coal-fired power plant with modern technology its efficiency is about 40%
Electric motor are around 85-92%
In order to better understand the concept of efficiency it is as if we pay 100 dollars of gasoline for our weekly use, but of that 100 dollars the car only uses 10 dollars to do that activity the rest of the money the 90 dollars were lost because of the inefficiencies of the vehicle.
Answer:
Newton's second law: F=ma.
Force = mass x acceleration
This basically means, that the more massive something is, and the faster it is going, the more force the object will have.
So, the factors that can be used to find acceleration are:
F=ma
a=F/m
So, we see that the correct answer is A, mass and force.
Let me know if this helps!
Answer:
Kinetic Energy
Explanation:
Heat energy is another name for thermal energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of a moving object. As thermal energy comes from moving particles, it is a form of kinetic energy.
