Given the fact that energy conversion is not entirely efficient, it is impossible to produce a perpetual motion machine.

<h3>What is a perpetual motion machine?</h3>

The perpetual motion machine in one that is able to work continuously without stopping. This would mean that the efficiency of this machine must that the machine is 100% efficient which violates the second law of thermodynamics.

Thus, given the fact that energy conversion is not entirely efficient and energy looses cause machines not function effectively, it is impossible to produce a perpetual motion machine.

If 270 watts of power is used in 42 seconds, how much work was done

navik [9.2K]

Answer: W = 11340J

Explanation:

Hey there! I will give the following steps, if you have any questions feel free to ask me in the comments below.

So this is the Formula: Power = Work / Time.

Step 1: Find the Formula

P = W / T

Step 2: Make W the subject of the equation.

W = PT

Step 3: Given.

P = 270 Watts, T = 42 seconds

Step 4: Substitute these values into equation 2 .

W = 270(42)

Step 5: Simplify.

W = 11340J

The amount of work done was 11340.

A hockey puck with a mass of 0.175 kg slides over the ice. The puck initially slides with a speed of 5.25 m/s, but it comes to a

Neko [114]

Answer:

1.70 J

Explanation:

The heat dissipated is the difference in the kinetic energies.

This is given by

$E = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2$

$v_i$ and $v_f$ are the initial and final velocities.

With m = 0.175 kg,

$E = \frac{1}{2}\times0.175(2.85^2 - 5.25^2) = -1.701\text{ J}$

The negative sign appears because energy is lost.

The Kinetic Theory of Matter states that the particles that make up all matter are in perpetual motion. We know that a solid can

evablogger [386]

1) Explain how the particles that make up solid matter can be in perpetual motion if they do not change position. Answer: they do not mov, just vibrate a bit more and move further apart. And as a result solid expand a bit.

2) How the Kinetic Theory of Matter defines heat. Answer: Heat is a form of energy that particles convert into kinetic energy. Adding a heat energy increases the kinetic energy of particles. This means that as a substance is heated - the particles vibrate faster and move further apart.
