Supplied energy=300kJ

  • Wasted energy=70.5J

Used energy:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto 300-70.5=229.5kJ

We know

\boxed{\sf Efficiency=\dfrac{Used\:Energy}{Supplied\:Energy}\times 100}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Efficiency=\dfrac{229.5}{300}\times 100

\\ \sf\longmapsto Efficiency=\dfrac{229.5}{3}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Efficiency=76.5\%

What is the electric potential of a 2.2 µC charge at a distance of 6.3 m from the charge? Recall that Coulomb’s constant is k =
iren2701 [21]
1) The electric potential at a distance r from a single point charge is given by
V(r) = k  \frac{q}{r}
where k is the Coulomb's constant, q is the charge and r is the distance from the charge.

The charge in this problem is
q=2.2 \mu C =2.2 \cdot 10^{-6} C
So the potential at distance r=6.3 m is
V=k \frac{q}{r}=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2})  \frac{2.2 \cdot 10^{-6} C}{6.3 m}=3139 V

2) By using the same formula as before, we can find the electric potential at distance r=99 m from the charge:
V=k \frac{q}{r}=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2})  \frac{2.2 \cdot 10^{-6} C}{99 m}=198 V

There are pluses and minuses to being a competitive person.<br> True <br> False
melomori [17]
True, because being a competitive person means that you like challenging yourself to do more things, but if you’re really competitive you might challenge yourself too hard, and might hurt yourself, which will make you not want to really compete with anything anymore
