Answer:

The efficiency of the screw is 85.5%

Explanation:

to calculate efficiency you have to do

efficiency=energy output/ energy input × 100%

so e=855/1000 × 100%=85.5%

A car driving down a hill contains many types of energy. DESCRIBE at least 3 types of energy the car has.

VikaD [51]

Once the car is on top of the hill it contains potential energy witch means it is storing enough energy to slide the hill until acted on. Once the car moves and slides down the hill it creates kinetic energy witch means it's in motion. The car then turns the kinetic energy into mechanical energy witch means it's working. I'm not sure if that helped but good luck!

In a hydraulic lift, if the pressure exerted on the liquid by one piston is increased by 100 N/m2 , how much additional weight c

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The additional weight and mass needed for lifting the other piston slowly is 2500 N and 254.92 kg, respectively.

Explanation:

By means of the Pascal's Principle, the hydraulic lift can be modelled by the following two equations:

Hydraulic Lift - Before change

$P = \frac{F}{A}$

Hydraulic Lift - After change

$P + \Delta P = \frac{F + \Delta F}{A}$

Where:

$P$ - Hydrostatic pressure, measured in pascals.

$\Delta P$ - Change in hydrostatic pressure, measured in pascals.

$A$ - Cross sectional area of the hydraulic lift, measured in square meters.

$F$ - Hydrostatic force, measured in newtons.

$\Delta F$ - Change in hydrostatic force, measured in newtons.

The additional weight is obtained after some algebraic handling and the replacing of all inputs:

$\frac{F}{A} + \Delta P = \frac{F}{A} + \frac{\Delta F}{A}$

$\Delta P = \frac{\Delta F}{A}$

$\Delta F = A\cdot \Delta P$

Given that $\Delta P = 100\,Pa$ and $A = 25\,m^{2}$ , the additional weight is:

$\Delta F = (25\,m^{2})\cdot (100\,Pa)$

$\Delta F = 2500\,N$

The additional mass needed for the additional weight is:

$\Delta m = \frac{\Delta F}{g}$

Where:

$\Delta F$ - Additional weight, measured in newtons.

$\Delta m$ - Additional mass, measured in kilograms.

$g$ - Gravitational constant, measured in meters per square second.

If $\Delta F = 2500\,N$ and $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , then:

$\Delta m = \frac{2500\,N}{9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }$

$\Delta m = 254.92\,kg$

The additional weight and mass needed for lifting the other piston slowly is 2500 N and 254.92 kg, respectively.
