That ratio is called"efficiency".  It doesn't need to be a percent. 
It can just as well be a fraction or a decimal number.

Describe why cars are inefficient machines in terms of thermodynamics.
Alina [70]

Cars are the mechanical device which convert chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, the engine used in the automobiles car are very inefficient, they can only convert 30-40% of chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, since thermodynamics is the branch of science that deals with the conversion of energy, thus due to poor conversion rate of chemical energy into mechanical energy, cars are known as inefficient machine.

A 49 kg bear slides, from rest, 11 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 3.3 m/s just before hitting the ground.
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

a) \Delta U_g=-5.3kJ

b) K=0.27kJ

c) F_f=0.45kN

Explanation:

the gravitational potential energy is given by:

U_g=m.g.h\\

\Delta U_g=m.g.h_f-m.g.h_i\\\Delta U_g=49kg*9.8m/s^2*(0m-11m)\\\Delta U_g=-5.3kJ

The kinetic energy is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}m.v^2\\

the initial kinetic energy is zero because the motion started from rest, so:

K=\frac{1}{2}*49kg*(3.3m/s^2)^2\\K=0.27kJ

applying the conservation of energy theorem:

U_g-W_f=K_f\\W_f=-(\Delta K+\Delta U)\\W_F=5.3kJ-0.27kJ\\W_F=-5.0kJ

The work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_f.h.cos(\theta)\\

the angle of the force is 180 degrees because it's against the movement:

F_f=\frac{W_f}{h.cos(\theta)}\\\\F_f=\frac{-5.0kJ}{11m.cos(180^o)}\\\\F_f=0.45kN
