What is perfect machine?Why is this machine not possible in the real life?

andrezito [222]

Explanation:

The machine whose efficiency is 100% is known as perfect machine .This machine is not possible in real life because every machine is affected by the overcoming friction due to which is efficiency become less than hundred percent .

A uniform electric field with a magnitude of 5750 N/C points in the positive x direction. Find the change in electric potential

castortr0y [4]

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 5750 N/C

Charge $q=+10.5\times10^{-6}\ C$

Distance = 5.50 cm

(a). When the charge is moved in the positive x- direction

We need to calculate the change in electric potential energy

Using formula of electric potential energy

$\Delta U=-W$

$\Delta U=-F\cdot d$

$\Delta U=-q(E\cdot d)$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta U=-10.5\times10^{-6}\times5750\times5.50\times10^{-2}$

$\Delta U=-3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

The change in electric potential energy is $-3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

(b). When the charge is moved in the negative x- direction

We need to calculate the change in electric potential energy

Using formula of electric potential energy

$\Delta U=-W$

$\Delta U=-F\cdot (-d)$

$\Delta U=-q(E\cdot (-d))$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta U=-10.5\times10^{-6}\times5750\times(-5.50\times10^{-2})$

$\Delta U=3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

The change in electric potential energy is $3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

Hence, This is the required solution.

How much power is needed to lift the 200-N object to a height of 10 m in 4 s?

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

500 watts

Explanation:

Recall that the definition of power is the amount of energy delivered per unit of time.

In our case, the energy delivered is potential energy which we can estimate as the product of the weight of the object times the distance it is lifted above ground:

200 N x 10 m = 2000 Nm

then the power is the quotient of this potential energy divided the time it took to lift the object to that position:

Power = 2000 / 4 Nm/s = 500 Nm/s = 500 watts

a car whose mass is 1000kg is traveling at a constant speed of 10m/s. Neglecting any friction how much force will the engine hav

AURORKA [14]

This next statement is a big deal. It should be up on a board, surrounded
by flashing red and yellow lights, and hung on the wall of every Science
classroom. Although we never see it in our daily lives, it's fundamental to
the workings of the universe, and it's also Newton's first law of motion:

<em>Without friction, it doesn't take <u>ANY</u> force to keep a moving object
moving. </em><em>Force is only required to <u>change</u> the object's speed, or to
<u>change</u> the direction </em><em>in which it's moving.</em>

The answer to the question is: On a level road, and neglecting any friction,
the engine doesn't have to supply ANY force to keep the car going at the
same speed.
