Answer:

mechanical energy

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is the combination of both potential energy and kinetic

Mechanical energy can be divided as

1)kinetic energy, this energy vis regarded as the energy of motion

2) potential energy which is the stored energy of position.

Mechanical energy reffered to as

motion energy this energy is responsible for the movement of an object based on its position as well as motion.

Mechanical energy= U + K

Where U= potential energy

K= Kinectic energy

As the tire is sitting on top of a ramp, it posses "potential energy" as it is released and rolls down the ramp the potential is converted to Kinectic energy

The efficiency of the scissor is 200%.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Efficiency is defined as the ratio of output of any instrument or device or machine to the input supplied to it. So the greater the output the greater will be the efficiency of the device.

As here the work done by us on the system is said to be 10 J so this will be equal to the input work done on the system. And the work done by the system i.e., the scissor is 20 J, so this will be the output work.

So, the efficiency is the ratio of output to input as shown below.

Efficiency = (\frac {20} {10} ) \times 100 = 200

So, the efficiency of the scissor is 200%.
