Answer: 50%

Explanation: efficiency=power input/power output ×100

Eff.=300/600 ×100

Eff=½×100

Eff=50%

Why does your hand feel cool if you spill some alcohol on it?

son4ous [18]

<span>It takes heat to make something evaporate, so it takes heat from your arm. Alcohol easily evaporates at room temperature, so it feels cool. This is also why you feel cool when getting out of the pool. The water on your skin evaporates.

A car is 200 m from a stop sign and traveling toward the sign at 40.0 m/s. At this time, the driver suddenly realizes that she m

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The acceleration of the car will be $a=9600m/sec^$

Explanation:

We have given that distance from stop sign s = 200 m

Time t = 0.2 sec

We have to find the constant acceleration

Now from second equation of motion $s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$200=40\times 0.2+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 0.2^2$

$a=9600m/sec^$

So the acceleration of the car will be $a=9600m/sec^$

A dentist’s drill starts from rest. After 4.28 s of constant angular acceleration it turns at a rate of 28940 rev/min. Find the

mylen [45]

Answer:

Angular acceleration, is $708.07\ rad/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the drill, $\omega_i=0$

After 4.28 s of constant angular acceleration it turns at a rate of 28940 rev/min, final angular speed, $\omega_f=28940\ rev/min=3030.58\ rad/s$

We need to find the drill’s angular acceleration. It is given by the rate of change of angular velocity.

$\alpha =\dfrac{\omega_f}{t}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{3030.58\ rad/s}{4.28\ s}\\\\\alpha =708.07\ rad/s^2$

So, the drill's angular acceleration is $708.07\ rad/s^2$ .
