What is the energy put into a machine or device to make it work

Physics
1 answer:
Neporo4naja [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  • <em>The energy put into a machine or device to make it work is named</em> <u>work input.</u>

Explanation:

<em>Machines </em>are devices to perform tasks with less effort or more easily. They can either increase the force applied or change the direction of the force or permit to apply the force at a distance.

The law of conservation of energy states that the energy is neither created nor destroyed, but when the machines do <em>work</em> some energy is dissipated in the form of heat, light or sound, due, mainly to friction.

In consequence, the <em>work output</em> is less than the <em>work input</em>.

A measure of energy use is efficiency. The efficiency is the ratio of the work output to the work input.

          Efficiency=\dfrac{\text{Work done by the machine}}{\text{Work done on the machine}}

Gwar [14]

Answer:

option (c)

Explanation:

90% of the body is submerged in water.

Now it is immersed in an unknown liquid whose density is less than the density of water.

Buoyant force acting on the body depends on the volume immersed, density of liquid and gravity.

As the density of liquid is less than the density of water, so the buoyant force acting on the body by the unknown liquid is less than water. So it is submerged less than 90% in this liquid.

A 6.0 kg metal ball moving at 4.0 m/s hits a 6.0 kg ball of putty at rest and sticks to it. The two go on at 2.0 m/s.
lutik1710 [3]

The metal ball lost energy while the putty ball gained energy.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of the body. We must note that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

1) Kinetic energy before collision = 1/2mv^2 = 0.5 * 6 * 4 = 12 J

2) kinetic energy after collision = 0.5 * 6 *  2= 6 J

3) Kinetic energy of putty ball = 0.5 * 6 *  2= 6 J

4) Energy lost by the metal ball = 12 J -  6 J = 6 J

5) Energy gained by the putty ball = 6 J - 0J = 6 J

6) The rest of the energy was converted to heat after the collision.

Give an example of where you see the law of conservation of energy in your life
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The law of conservation of energy can be seen in these everyday examples of energy transference: Water can produce electricity. Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy.

The cue ball loses energy because the energy it had has been transferred to the 8 ball, so the cue ball slows down

Aloiza [94]

Explanation:

We know that the sky appears to us like a sphere called as celestial sphere which appears to rotate around an imaginary axis because of Earth's rotation. Since the axis cuts the celestial sphere at celestial poles all the object seems to circle around the celestial poles.

Condition 1: The stars rise and set perpendicular to the horizon

The observer is at the equator

Condition 2: The stars circle the sky parallel to the horizon

The observer is at the Pole of the Earth

Condition 3: The celestial equator passes through the zenith

The observer is at the equator

Condition 4: In the course of a year, all stars are visible

The observer is at the equator

Condition 5: The Sun rises on March 21 and does not set until September 21 (ideally)

The observer is at North Pole
