A machine that operates a ride at the fair requires 2500 J to lift a 294 N child 5.0 m. What is the efficiency of this machine?

Answer:

η = 58.8%

Explanation:

Work is defined as the force applied by the distance traveled by the body.

W =F*d

where:

W = work [J] (units of joules)

F = force = 294 [N]

d = distance = 5 [m]

W = 294*5\\W = 1470 [J]\\

Efficiency is defined as the energy required to perform an activity in relation to the energy actually added to perform some activity. This can be better understood by means of the following equation.

efficiency = W_{done}/W_{required}\\efficiency = 1470/2500\\efficiency = 0.588 = 58.8%

A hydrogen atom has a diameter of about 12.7 nm, express this diameter in centimeters.
Andrej [43]
1 meter = 1e9 nm
To get meters, divide nanometers by 1e9: 9.95nm / 1x10^9 = 9.95x10^-9 meters
Answer: 9.95e-9 meters

Which person is weightless?
ahrayia [7]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on an object helps in determining the weight of an object. But a place where there will be no gravity or have zero gravitational pull then it means the person will be weightless.

For example, force of gravity on moon is zero which means any object or person on moon will be weightless.

On the other hand, when a child is in the air as she plays on a trampoline then it means gravitational pull form the earth is acting on it. So, it will definitely has some weight.

Similarly, a scuba diver exploring a deep-sea wreck is under the ground where there will be force of gravity. Hence, it will also have some weight.

Thus, we can conclude that an astronaut on the Moon is the person who is weightless.

The temperature of a superconductor is gradually lowered. At the critical temperature, how does the resistivity of the supercond
san4es73 [151]

At critical temperature, the resistivity of the superconductor

B. It suddenly drops to zero

Explanation:

Materials can be classified into three different types depending on their resistance:

  • Conductors: these materials have generally low resistance and allow electricity to pass through easily. The resistance of a conductor increases linearly with the temperature
  • Insulators: these materials do not allow electricity to pass through - so they have very high resistance
  • Semi-conductors: these are materials that are insulators are room temperature, however they becomes conductors when heated. Therefore, the resistance of a semiconductor decreases when the temperature increases
  • Superconductors: these are special materials that are normally conductors; however, at very low temperatures (we are talking about temperature very near to 0 K), their resistance becomes suddenly zero.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B. It suddenly drops to zero
