If the _____ work on a simple machine equals the output work, the machine is said to be 100% efficient.

omeli [17]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Input work

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept being tested: Efficiency of machines

Therefore we need to know what is the efficiency of a machine

Efficiency of a machine is the ratio of work output of machine to the work input expressed as a percentage.

Thus;

Efficiency = (Work output ÷ Work input) × 100%

Therefore, if the work input is equal to the work output then the efficiency of the machine will be 100%.

Most machines are not 100% efficient due to loss of energy in form of heat due to friction of the moving parts of the machine.

Find the ratio of the lengths of the two mathematical pendulums, if the ratio of periods is 1.5

juin [17]

Answer:

The ratio of lengths of the two mathematical pendulums is 9:4.

Explanation:

It is given that,

The ratio of periods of two pendulums is 1.5

Let the lengths be L₁ and L₂.

The time period of a simple pendulum is given by :

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}$

$T^2=4\pi^2\dfrac{l}{g}\\\\l=\dfrac{T^2g}{4\pi^2}$

Where

l is length of the pendulum

$l\propto T^2$

$\dfrac{l_1}{l_2}=(\dfrac{T_1}{T_2})^2$ ....(1)

ATQ,

$\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}=1.5$

Put in equation (1)

$\dfrac{l_1}{l_2}=(1.5)^2\\\\=\dfrac{9}{4}$

So, the ratio of lengths of the two mathematical pendulums is 9:4.

A pendulum Bob released from some initial height such that the speed of the bob at the bottom of the swing is 1.9m/s. What is th

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

h = 18.4 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of the bob at the bottom of the swing is 1.9m/s.

We need to find the initial height of the bob. Let it is h.

We can find it using the conservation of energy i.e.

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Where

v is speed of the bob

So,

$h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\\h=\dfrac{(1.9)^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\\h= 0.184\ m$

h = 18.4 cm

So, the initial height of the bob is 18.4 cm.
