220V is applied to two different conductors made of the same material. One conductor is twice as long and twice as thick as the

second. What is the ratio of the power transformed in the first relative to the second?

Answer:

Explanation:

For calculating resistance of a conductor , the formula is

R = ρ l / A , ρ is specific resistance , l is length and A is cross sectional area of wire.

For first wire length is l₁ , area is A₁ resistance is R₁, for second resistance is R₂ , length is l₂ and area is A₂

Given , l₁ = 2l₂ , A₁ = 4A₂ , area is proportional to square of thickness.

R₁ / R₂ = I₁A₂ / I₂A₁

= 2l₂ x A₁ / 4 I₂A₁

= 1 / 2

2R₁ = R₂

Power = V² / R

Ratio of power = (V² / R₁) x (R₂ / V²)

= R₂ / R₁

= 2 .

Why the efficiency of heat engine is always less than 100%​
valina [46]

Answer:

because some waste heat is always produced produced in a heat engine.

Explanation:

the fraction of heat input that is converted to a net work output is a measure of the performance of the heat engine and is called the thermal efficiency.Since the machine does not contain a source of energy ,nor can it store energy ,from this conversation of energy the power output of machine can never be greater than its input,so efficiency can be less than 100%.

1. Impulse is the product of force and distance. True or false?
daser333 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Impulse, I = F.t

  The statement impulse is the product of Force and distance is false.

2. F = m g

   Force necessary to lift the object depends on the mass of the object.

   statement 2 is false.

3. Joule is equal to Newton times meter.

    Statement 3 is false.

4. Work done to lift an object is correct statement.

   Statement 4 is true.

5. Kinetic energy of an object is due to motion.

  Statement 5 is false.

6. Stopping distance is directly proportional to the square of velocity.

     If velocity is doubled, stopping distance is quadrupled.

    Statement 6 is false.
