Answer:
Efficiency is the percent of work put into a machine by the user (input work) that becomes work done by the machine (output work).
Explanation:
It is a measure of how well a machine reduces friction.
Answer:
a) V_f = 25.514 m/s
b) Q =53.46 degrees CCW from + x-axis
Explanation:
Given:
- Initial speed V_i = 20.5 j m/s
- Acceleration a = 0.31 i m/s^2
- Time duration for acceleration t = 49.0 s
Find:
(a) What is the magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off?
(b) What is the direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off? Give your answer as an angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-axis.
Solution:
- We can apply the kinematic equation of motion for our problem assuming a constant acceleration as given:
V_f = V_i + a*t
V_f = 20.5 j + 0.31 i *49
V_f = 20.5 j + 15.19 i
- The magnitude of the velocity vector is given by:
V_f = sqrt ( 20.5^2 + 15.19^2)
V_f = sqrt(650.9861)
V_f = 25.514 m/s
- The direction of the velocity vector can be computed by using x and y components of velocity found above:
tan(Q) = (V_y / V_x)
Q = arctan (20.5 / 15.19)
Q =53.46 degrees
- The velocity vector is at angle @ 53.46 degrees CCW from the positive x-axis.
Answer:
Current = 10 Amperes.
Explanation:
Given the following dat;
Quantity of charge, Q = 36 kilocoulombs (KC) = 36 * 1000 = 36000C
Time = 1 hour to seconds = 60*60 = 3600 seconds
To find the current;
Quantity of charge = current * time
Substituting in the equation
36000 = current * 3600
Current = 36000/3600
Current = 10 Amperes.
