An engine converts 95% of its energy to mechanical. What happens to the other 5% of its energy?

Physics
1 answer:
Elza [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Here, 5% of energy wasted as a heat lost or work done against frictional forces.

Explanation:

No engine has yet made that can convert its all input energy into mechanical energy. Some of the input energy goes in vain in the form of heat and friction.

soldier1979 [14.2K]
The question doesn't give us enough information to answer.
The answer depends on the mass of the object, how long the force
acts on the object, the OTHER forces on the object, and whether the
object is free to move.

-- If you increase the force with which you push on a brick wall,
the amount of work done remains unchanged, namely Zero.

-- If you push on a pingpong ball with a force of 1 ounce for 1 second,
the ball accelerates substantially, it moves a substantial distance, and
so the work done is substantial.

-- But if you push on a battleship, even with a much bigger force ...
let's say 1 pound ... and keep pushing for a month ... the ship accelerates
microscopically, moves a microscopic distance, and the work done by
your force is microscopic.

4) A 350 kg aircraft experiences a NET force of 1,184 N at take off.
xenn [34]

Answer:

3.4 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of the aircraft can be found by using Newton's second law:

F = ma

where

F is the net force on the aircraft

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

For the aircraft in this problem,

F = 1184 N

m = 350 kg

Solving the formula for the acceleration, we find

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{1184}{350}=3.4 m/s^2
