Answer:

efficiency of a machine is less than 100% because some part is energy is utilized to overcome some opposing forces like friction which is wasted as heat ,sound energy etc

A proton with a velocity in the positive x-direction enters a region where there is a uniform magnetic field B in the positive y
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Negative z-direction

Explanation:

First of all, we need to understand the direction of the magnetic force on the proton. This can be determined by using the right hand rule. So we have:

- index finger: direction of the proton, positive x-direction

- middle finger: direction of magnetic field, positive y-direction

- thumb: direction of the force, positive z-direction

In order to balance this magnetic force, the electric force must act in the opposite direction (negative z direction). Since for a proton (positive charge) the force and the electric field have same direction, it means that the electric field must also be in the negative z direction.

Two locomotives approach each other on parallel tracks. Each have a speed of 95 km/h with respect to the ground. If they are ini
viva [34]
If they are both  traveling with the same speed that means that they will reach other in the middle of the line initially between them. In other word, each will have to travel the same amount before they reach other. 

Now you can calculate the time it takes for only one locomotive to travel half of the total distance between them, and that time is equal to the time you are looking for.

Use 
   t =  S1/2 / v

  where t-time, S-distance traveled , v-velocity

A particular electric car is supplied with 300 kJ of chemical energy by the battery. Of this, a total of 70.5 kJ of energy is wa
Lorico [155]

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\%

How can gravitational tugs from orbiting planets affect the motion of a star?.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Gravitational tugs from orbiting planets don't affect the motion of a star. The star, being much larger than the planet, has a much smaller orbit. But it does move slightly. Explain how alien astronomers could deduce the existence of planets in our solar system by observing the Sun's motion.
