Answer:
Sundial is an instrument showing the time by the shadow of a pointer cast by the sun on to a plate marked with the hours of the day.
Potential energy<span> is the </span>energy<span> that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position. It is calculated by the expression PE = mgh where mg is the weight of the book and h is the height. It is calculated as follows:
PE = 50(1) = 50 J
</span>PE = 50(1.5) = 75 J
PE = 50(2) = 100 J
Answer:
η = 40 %
Explanation:
Given that
Qa ,Heat addition= 1000 J
Qr,Heat rejection= 600 J
Work done ,W= 400 J
We know that ,efficiency of a engine given as

Now by putting the values in the above equation ,then we get

η = 0.4
The efficiency in percentage is given as
η = 0.4 x 100 %
η = 40 %
Therefore the answer will be 40%.
Given that,
Time = 0.5 s
Acceleration = 10 m/s²
(I). We need to calculate the speed of apple
Using equation of motion

Where, v = speed
u = initial speed
a = acceleration
t = time
Put the value into the formula


(III). We need to calculate the height of the branch of the tree from the ground
Using equation of motion

Put the value into the formula


(II). We need to calculate the average velocity during 0.5 sec
Using formula of average velocity


Where,
= final position
= initial position
Put the value into the formula


Hence, (I). The speed of apple is 5 m/s.
(II). The average velocity during 0.5 sec is 2.5 m/s
(III). The height of the branch of the tree from the ground is 1.25 m.
