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.

What is not an example of Absorption? (Physics)
amm1812

When a light wave strikes an object, it can be absorbed, reflected, or refracted by the object. All objects have a degree of reflection and absorption. ... In the natural world, light can also be transmitted by an object. That is, light can pass through an object with no effect (an x-ray, for example).

1. On each of your equipotential maps, draw some electric field lines with arrow heads indicating the direction of the field. (H
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The angle between the electric field lines and the equipotential surface is 90 degree.

Explanation:

The equipotential surfaces are the surface on which the electric potential is same. The work done in moving a charge from one point to another on an equipotential surface is always zero.

The electric field lines are always perpendicular to the equipotential surface.

As

dV = \overrightarrow{E} . d\overrightarrow{r}\\\\

For equipotential surface, dV = 0 so

0 = \overrightarrow{E} . d\overrightarrow{r}\\\\

The dot product of two non zero vectors is zero, if they are perpendicular to each other.

Suppose the student in (Figure 1) is 68kg, and the board being stood on has a 12kg mass. What is the reading on the left scale?
lesantik [10]

The equilibrium conditions allow to find the results for the balance forces are:

  • F₁ = 225.4 N
  • F₂ = 558.6 N

When the acceleration is zero we have the equilibrium conditions for both linear and rotational motion.

            ∑ F = 0

            ∑ τ = 0

           

Where F are the forces and τ the torques.

The torque  is the product of the force and the perpendicular distance to the point of support,

The free-body diagrams are diagrams of the forces without the details of the bodies, see attached for the free-body diagram of the system.

We write the translational equilibrium condition.

           F₁ - W₁ - W₂ + F₂ = 0

We write the equation for the rotational motion, set our point of origin at scale 1, and the counterclockwise turns are positive.

         F₂ 2 - W₁ 1 - W₂ 1.5 = 0\frac{W_1  \ 1 + W_2 \ 1.5}{2}

Let's calculate F₂

         F₂ = \frac{W_1 \ 1 + W_2 \ 1.5 }{2}  

         F₂ = (m g + M g 1.5)/ 2

         F₂ = \frac{(12 + 68 \ 1.5 ) \  9.8}{2}  

         F₂ = 558.6 N

We substitute in the translational equilibrium equation.

         F₁ = W₁ + W₂ - F₂

         F₁ = (m + M) g - F₂

         F₁ = (12 +68) 9.8 - 558.6

         F₁ = 225.4 N

In conclusion using the equilibrium conditions we can find the forces of the balance are:

  • F₁ = 225.4 N
  • F2 = 558.6 N

The y component of the electric field of an electromagnetic wave traveling in the +x direction through vacuum obeys the equation
Alexxx [7]

Answer: 8.6 µm

Explanation:

At a long distance from the source, the components (the electric and magnetic fields) of the electromagnetic waves, behave like plane waves, so the equation for the y component of the electric field obeys an equation like this one:

Ey =Emax cos (kx-ωt)

So, we can write the following equality:

ω= 2.2 1014 rad/sec

The angular frequency and the linear frequency are related as follows:

f = ω/ 2π= 2.2 1014 / 2π (rad/sec) / rad = 0.35 1014 1/sec

In an electromagnetic wave propagating through vacuum, the speed of the wave is just the speed of light, c.

The wavelength, speed and frequency, are related by this equation:

λ = c/f

λ = 3.108 m/s / 0.35. 1014 1/s = 8.6 µm.
