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.

Answer:

Magnetic field will be ZERO at the given position

Explanation:

As we know that the magnetic field due to moving charge is given as

$B = \frac{\mu_0 qv sin\theta}{4\pi r^2}$

so here we know that for the direction of magnetic field we will use

$\hat B = \hat v \times \hat r$

so we have

$\hat B = \hat i \times (\hat i + 0\hat j + 0\hat k)$

so magnetic field must be ZERO

So whenever charge is moving along the same direction where the position vector is given then magnetic field will be zero

What is the most likely place for a star to begin to form?

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Stars are born within the clouds of dust and scattered throughout most galaxies. Deep within these clouds, turbulence creates knots with enough mass to cause the gas and dust to collapse under its own gravitational force.
