Answer: 9.9%

Explanation: efficiency = (work output /work input) × 100

Note that, 1 kilocalorie = 4184 joules, hence 22kcal = 22× 4184 = 92048 joules.

Work output = 9200 j and work input = 92048 j

Efficiency = (9200/92048) × 100 = 0.099 × 100 = 9.9%

The nucleus of a hydrogen atom is a single proton, which has a radius of about 1.2 × 10-15 m. The single electron in a hydrogen
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: 0.86 × 10^14

Explanation:

Given the following :

Radius of proton = 1.2 × 10-15 m

Radius of hydrogen atom = 5.3 × 10-11 m

Density of proton could be calculated thus:

Mass of proton = 1.67 × 10^-27 kg

Using the formula :

(4/3) × pi × r^3

(4/3) × 3.142 × (1.2 × 10^-15)^3 = 7.24 × 10^-45

Density = mass / volume

Density = (1.67 × 10^-27) / ( 7.24 × 10^-45)

= 0.2306 × 10^18

Density of hydrogen atom:

Mass of hydrogen atom= 1.67 × 10^-27 kg

Using the formula :

(4/3) × pi × r^3

(4/3) × 3.142 × (5.3 × 10^-11)^3 = 6.24 × 10^-31

Density = mass / volume

Density = (1.67 × 10^-27) / ( 6.24 × 10^-31)

= 0.2676 × 10^4

Ratio is thus:

Density of proton / density of hydrogen atom

0.2306 × 10^18 / 0.2676 × 10^4 = 0.8617 × 10^14

"4. Two long, parallel wires each carry the same current I in the same direction (Fig. OQ 30.4) . Is the total magnetic field at
Nastasia [14]

Total magnetic field at the point P midway between the wires is Zero.

The higher wire's contribution to the magnetic field at point P is directed into the page, whereas the lower wire's contribution is directed out of the page. These two oppositely directed contributions to the magnetic field have identical magnitudes and cancel each other out since point P is equally spaced from the two wires and the currents flowing through them are of equal magnitude.

<h3></h3><h3>Define magnitude?</h3>

The term "magnitude" refers to an object's greatest size and direction. Scalar and vector quantities both use magnitude as a common factor. We are aware that scalar quantities are those that have just magnitude by definition. Those quantities with both magnitude and direction are considered vector quantities. It can also be used to describe how far an object has travelled or how much an object weighs in terms of its magnitude.

What is a neutron start?
nataly862011 [7]

neutron star is formed when the core of a star, that was one ginormous, collapse on its own mass thus it loses it's volume exponentially (y=a^x) while the mass of the star decreases linearly (y=mx+c) thus the neutron star has mass of 10 to 29 sun in the radius of 10 km( for scale earth has 6731 km) thus it's density is super high!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hope it helps you! ;)
