A machine can never be 100% efficient because some work is always lost
due to the lack of materials or equipment that would convert work by 100%. It follows
the second law of entropy. The ideal engine is known as Carnot’s engine having
a 100% efficiency. So far, no engine has ever gotten to 100%.
Answer:
A conservative force is a force with the property that the total work done in moving a particle between two points is independent of the path taken Equivalently if a particle travels in a closed loop the total work done by a conservative force is zero
Explanation:
Good afternoon!
We calculate the volume of the container in cm³. To do that, we must put the units in cm:
30 cm → 30 cm
50 mm → 5 cm
0.2 m → 20 cm
The volume is:
V = 30 . 5 . 20
V = 3000 cm³
Now, we calculate the mas with the formula:
m = dV
m = 2.5 · 3000
m = 7500 g
Dividing by 1000, we have the mass in kg:
m = 7.5 kg
Well first of all, the Space Shuttle program ended a few years ago, and none have been launched since then.
The Shuttle never went to places that were properly referred to as "outer space". When they flew, the Space Shuttles went to low Earth orbit, where the acceleration of gravity is roughly 85% of its value on the Earth's surface.
So a Shuttle that weighed 20 million Newtons on the launch pad weighed roughly 17 million Newtons while in orbit.
