Answer: e = 3.333% or 33 1/3%
^
repeated

Identify the given information.
Work input (Wi)= 600 K
Work output (Wo) = 200 K

Choose which formula you should use. In this case, you are finding efficiency.
e = (Wo/Wi) x 100%

Substitute and solve.
e = (200 K/600 K) X 100%
e = 0.333 X 100%
e = 33.333% or 33 1/3%

Answer: If in you machine you put some heat X, the machine will return some work W and some heat Y. In this case, X = 600k and Y = 200k.

The efficiency of a machine is the ratio of heat transformed into work, so

E = W/X = 1 - Y/X = 1 - 200/600 = 1 - 1/3 = 0.66.

So the efficiency of the turbine is of the 66%

False.

As temperature increases the more the electrons begin to vibrate more, as it decreases they vibrate less.

The data table shows some data related to the Sun and the planets in our solar system.

You have selected the correct answer and blobbed over it with your pencil.

I assume you must have looked at Saturn's average distance, found 1427,
divided that number by 6, got 237 and change, then looked at the others,
and found that 228 was the only one that's anywhere close.

An Astronaut lands on an Earthlike planet and drops a small lead ball with a mass from the top of her spaceship. The point of re

bearhunter [10]

First we have to find out the gravity on that planet. We use Newton second equation of motion. It is given as,

s = ut +(gt^2)/2

Distance s = 25m

Time t = 5 s

Velocity u = 0

By putting these values,

25 = 1/2.g.(5)²

g = 2

So the gravity on that planet is 2. Lets find out the weight of the astronaut.

Mass of the astronaut on earth m = 80 kg

Weight of astronaut on earth W = mg = (80)(9.8) = 784 N

Weight of astronaut on earth like planet = (80)(2) = 160 N

x = 160N

A clay vase on a potter's wheel experiences an angular acceleration of 5.69 rad/s2 due to the application of a 16.0-n m net torq

Digiron [165]

The equivalent of the Newton's second law for rotational motions is:
$\tau = I \alpha$
where
$\tau$ is the net torque acting on the object
$I$ is its moment of inertia
$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration of the object.

Re-arranging the formula, we get
$I= \frac{\tau}{\alpha}$
and since we know the net torque acting on the (vase+potter's wheel) system, $\tau=16.0 Nm$ , and its angular acceleration, $\alpha = 5.69 rad/s^2$ , we can calculate the moment of inertia of the system:
$I= \frac{\tau}{\alpha}= \frac{16.0 Nm}{5.69 rad/s^2} =2.81 kg m^2$
