A machine can never be 100% efficient because some work is always lost
due to the lack of materials or equipment that would convert work by 100%. It follows
the second law of entropy. The ideal engine is known as Carnot’s engine having
a 100% efficiency. So far, no engine has ever gotten to 100%.
Answer:
s = 3 m
Explanation:
Let t be the time the accelerating car starts.
Let's assume the vehicles are point masses so that "passing" takes no time.
the position of the constant velocity and accelerating vehicles are
s = vt = 40(t + 2) cm
s = ½at² = ½(20)(t)² cm
they pass when their distance is the same
½(20)(t)² = 40(t + 2)
10t² = 40t + 80
0 = 10t² - 40t - 80
0 = t² - 4t - 8
t = (4±√(4² - 4(1)(-8))) / 2(1)
t = (4± 6.928) / 2 ignore the negative time as it has not occurred yet.
t = 5.464 s
s = 40(5.464 + 2) = 298.564 cm
300 cm when rounded to the single significant digit of the question numerals.
Bio-gas is the naturally produced fossil fuel, a by-product when bacteria decompose organic material under anaerobic conditions.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Organic matter particularly waste material is broken down by bacteria through fermentation in an environmental condition without any presence of oxygen. This process of decomposition leads to formation of bio-gas with "carbon dioxide and methane" in a 2:3 ratio.
The above biological process is termed as bio-digestion or anaerobic digestion. Methane is flammable and thus bio-gas can be used as "energy source", a waste-to-energy transformation. The remaining decomposed matter is ideal as manure for plants due to its rich nutrient level.
Answer:
Explanation:
Potential energy on the surface of the earth
= - GMm/ R
Potential at height h
= - GMm/ (R+h)
Potential difference
= GMm/ R - GMm/ (R+h)
= GMm ( 1/R - 1/ R+h )
= GMmh / R (R +h)
This will be the energy needed to launch an object from the surface of Earth to a height h above the surface.
Extra energy is needed to get the same object into orbit at height h
= Kinetic energy of the orbiting object at height h
= 1/2 x potential energy at height h
= 1/2 x GMm / ( R + h)
You find yourself in a place that is unimaginably <u>hot and dense</u>. A r<u>apidly changing</u><u> gravitational field</u><u> </u>randomly warps space and time. Gripped by these huge fluctuations, you notice that there is but a single, unified force governing the universe, you are in the early universe before the Planck time.
<h3>What is Planck time?</h3>
The Planck time is approximately<u> 10^-44 seconds</u>. The smallest time interval, or "zeptosecond," that has so far been measured is <u>10^-21 seconds</u>. A photon traveling at the speed of light would need one Planck time <u>to traverse a distance of one </u><u>Planck length</u>.
<h3>What is Planck length?</h3>
Planck units are a set of measuring units used only in particle physics and physical cosmology. They are defined in terms of <u>four universal </u><u>physical constants</u> in such a way that when expressed in terms of these units, these physical constants have the numerical value 1. These units are a system of natural units because its definition is <u>based on characteristics of nature</u>, more especially the characteristics of free space, rather than a selection of prototype object, as was the case with Max Planck's original 1899 proposal. They are pertinent to the study of unifying theories like quantum gravity.
