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

A cargo elevator on Earth (where g = 10 m/s2) lifts 3000 kg upwards by 20 m. 720 kJ of electrical energy is used up in the proce
MakcuM [25]

Answer: 83%

Explanation:

Efficiency of the process = work output/work input × 100%

Work input is the energy used up in the process = 720,000Joules

Work output = Force × distance

= (3000×10)× 20

= 600000 Joules

Efficiency= 600000/720000 × 100

= 0.83×100

= 83%

Lightbulb A is marked "25 W 120V, "and lightbulb B is marked "100 W 120V " These labels mean that each lightbulb has its respect
Dovator [93]

The cost of running the lightbulb A for 30 days at 0.110 per KWh is 1.98

<h3>How to determine the energy </h3>

We'll beging by calculating the energy used by lightbulb A. This can be obtained as follow:

  • Power (P) = 25 watts = 25 / 1000 = 0.025 KW
  • Time (t) = 30 days = 30 × 24 = 720 h
  • Energy (E) =?

E = Pt

E = 0.025 × 720

E = 18 KWh

<h3>How to determine the cost for running the bulb for 30 days</h3>

The cost of running the bulb for 30 days can be obtained as follow:

  • Cost per KWh = 0.11
  • Energy (E) = 18 KWh
  • Cost =?

Cost = energy × Cost per KWh

Cost = 18 × 0.11

Cost = 1.98

An air-filled capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 7.60 cm2, separated by a distance of 1.70 mm. A 21
Inga [223]

Answer:

12353 V m⁻¹ = 12.4 kV m⁻¹

Explanation:  

Electric field between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor depends on the potential difference across the plates and their distance of separation.Potential difference across the plates V over the distance between the plates gives the electric field between the plates. Potential difference is the amount of work done per unit charge and is given here as 21 V. Electric field is the voltage over distance.

E = V ÷ d = 21 ÷ 0.0017 = 12353 V m⁻¹

What happens to the frequency and pitch of sound if the object making the sound moves away from you ?
Olin [163]

If you and the source of sound are moving apart, then the pitch (frequency) <em>you hear</em> is <em>lower</em> than the pitch (frequency) that's actually leaving the source.  

It doesn't matter whether you or the source is the one moving, only that the distance between you is increasing.
