Is there a "real" simple machine that has an efficiency of 100%?

Physics
1 answer:
VARVARA [1.3K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

NO

Explanation:

No, a machine cannot be 100% efficient. This is due to the movement of the moving parts siding against each other and causing friction. This friction is the one that creates heat and causes wear and tear between moving ports f the machine hence making the machine to decrease in efficiency with time

How much gravitational force do two lead balls with a mass of 8 kilograms, the centers of mass of which are 17 cm apart, affect
Arisa [49]

Answer:

1.48×10⁻⁷ Newtons

Explanation:

From the question,

According to newton's law of universal gravitation.

F = Gmm'/r²........................ Equation 1

F = gravitational force, G = gravitational constant, m = mass of the first ball, m' = mass of the second ball, r = distance between the balls.

Given: m = m' = 8 kg, r = 17 cm = 0.17 m,

Constant : G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Substitute these values into equation 1

F =  (6.67×10⁻¹¹×8×8)/(0.17²)

F = 1.48×10⁻⁷ N

marishachu [46]

Explanation :

Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier reported four "element" classifications but included some substances that were combinations of elements rather than true elements in his listing.

He is also known as " father of modern chemistry". He gives the modern system of naming chemical substances. He also gives a theory for chemical reactivity of the oxygen.

On a horizontal surface is located
Ierofanga [76]

By Newton's second law, the net vertical force acting on the object is 0, so that

<em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0

where <em>n</em> = magnitude of the normal force of the surface pushing up on the object, and <em>w</em> = weight of the object. Hence <em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em> = 196 N, where <em>m</em> = 20 kg and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s².

The force of static friction exerts up to 80 N on the object, since that's the minimum required force needed to get it moving, which means the coefficient of <u>static</u> friction <em>µ</em> is such that

80 N = <em>µ</em> (196 N)   →   <em>µ</em> = (80 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.408

Moving at constant speed, there is a kinetic friction force of 40 N opposing the object's motion, so that the coefficient of <u>kinetic</u> friction <em>ν</em> is

40 N = <em>ν</em> (196 N)   →   <em>ν</em> = (40 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.204

And so the closest answer is C.

(Note: <em>µ</em> and <em>ν</em> are the Greek letters mu and nu)
