Answer:

<em>Efficiency of a machine is 90% this means that the total energy produced to the machine only 90% is useful and given as a output.</em>

<em>Machines are not 100% efficient because some of the work done by a machine is used to overcome friction</em>

Explanation:

A simple machine has efficiency 90% means that 10% of the applied effort is wasted due to overcoming friction and 90% of the applied force is used in doing useful work .No machinr has hundred percent efficiency because every machine is affected by overcoming friction .

For a home sound system, two small speakers are located so that one is 52 cm closer to the listener than the other. What is the

You'll get destructive interference if both waves are the same frequency but the peaks of one wave overlap the troughs of the other wave.

That can only happen if one wave has to travel (1/2 wavelength) farther than the other one to reach your ears.  So we want to find the lowest frequency for which 52 cm is 1/2 of a wavelength ... the wavelength is 104 cm.

Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)

Frequency = (344 m/s) / (104 cm)

Frequency = (344 m/s) / (1.04 meter)

Frequency = (344 / 1.04) per second

Frequency = 330.8 Hz .

A tetrahedron has an equilateral triangle base with 25.0-cm-long edges and three equilateral triangle sides. The base is paralle
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

electric flux through the three side = 2.35 N m²/C

Explanation:

given,

equilateral triangle of base = 25 cm

electric field strength = 260 N/C

Area of triangle = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2

                          =  \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4} 0.25^2

                          = 0.0271 m³

electric flux = E. A

                   = 260 × 0.0271

                   = 7.046 N m²/C

since, tetrahedron does not enclose any charge so, net flux through tetrahedron is zero.

electric flux through the three side = (electric flux through base)/3

                               = \dfrac{7.046}{3}

electric flux through the three side = 2.35 N m²/C

G = 10 N/kg or 10 m/s2
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

a) U_{g} = 40\,J, b) \eta = 70\,\%, c) v = 20\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) The initial potential energy is:

U_{g} = (0.2\,kg)\cdot \left(10\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (20\,m)

U_{g} = 40\,J

b) The efficiency of the bounce is:

\eta = \left(\frac{14\,m}{20\,m} \right)\times 100\,\%

\eta = 70\,\%

c) The final speed of Danielle right before reaching the bottom of the hill is determined from the Principle of Energy Conservation:

K = U_{g}

U_{g} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot U_{g}}{m} }

v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (40\,J)}{0.2\,kg} }

v = 20\,\frac{m}{s}
