Answer:

r=P/C, where P is the amount of useful output ("product") produced per the amount C ("cost") of resources consumed.

Explanation:

Efficiency is often measured as the ratio of useful output to total input, which can be expressed with the mathematical formula r=P/C, where P is the amount of useful output ("product") produced per the amount C ("cost") of resources consumed.

Why is charge usually transferred by electrons rather than by protons?

Alexus [3.1K]

This is because most of the atom cannot move due to being held in place by surronding atoms, but electrons can move around and travel

Two UFPD are patrolling the campus on foot. To cover more ground, they split up and begin walking in different directions. Offic

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

0.256 hours

Explanation:

<u>Vectors in the plane </u>

We know Office A is walking at 5 mph directly south. Let $X_A$ be its distance. In t hours he has walked

$X_A=5t\ \text{miles}$

Office B is walking at 6 mph directly west. In t hours his distance is

$X_B=6t\ \text{miles}$

Since both directions are 90 degrees apart, the distance between them is the hypotenuse of a triangle which sides are the distances of each office

$D=\sqrt{X_A^2+X_B^2}$

$D=\sqrt{(5t)^2+(6t)^2}$

$D=\sqrt{61}t$

This distance is known to be 2 miles, so

$\sqrt{61}t=2$

$t =\frac{2}{\sqrt{61}}=0.256\ hours$

t is approximately 15 minutes
