Answer:

Efficiency = 71%

Explanation:

Given the following data:

Output energy = 250 Joules

Input energy = 350 Joules

To find efficiency;

Efficiency = \frac {Out-put \; energy}{In-put \; energy} * 100

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Efficiency = \frac {250}{350} * 100

Efficiency = 0.7143 * 100

Efficiency = 71.43 ≈ 71%

Therefore, the efficiency of the candle is 71 percent.

8. What is the momentum of a 120-kg professional fullback running<br> across the line at 11.2 m/s?
Alchen [17]

Answer:

134r kgm^-1 or 1344 kg /m

Explanation:

Momentum is is given by:

p=mv

Where:

p is momentum, m is mass in kg and v is velocity in ms−1

p=120kg×11.2 m/ s= 1344 kgms=1344kgm^−1

A satellite does not need any fuel to revolve around the earth?why​
Nadusha1986 [10]

They don't need gas because satellites rotate around the world using our planet's gravitational force as centripetal force. That as well as since there is no air in space, it doesn't have to work against air resistance. This way it doesn't lose energy by going around and around the Earth.

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED day! :-)

Brutus, a champion weight lifter, raises 220 kg a distance of 3.10 m. (a) how much work is done by brutus lifting the weights? j
Nana76 [90]
A) work = force * distance 
mass is not a force, weight is, so we have to find the weight of the block. 
Weight = mg 
Weight = (220kg)(9.8) 
Weight = 2156N 
Work = 2156N * 3.10m 
work = 6683.6J 
b) Since he is holding the weights, it's not moving, therefore, he doesn't do any work 
c) The answer is still the same amount of work when he lifted them. 
d) The answer is no since when he let go the weight, he doesn't apply any force to the weight. 
e) P = work/time 
P = 6683.6J / 2.1s 
P = 3182.67 watts
