Answer:

the work converted to thermal energy is 40 J.

Explanation:

Given;

work done by the physicist,w = 100 J

height through which the book is raised, h = 0.2 m

efficiency of machine = 60% = 0.6

The useful work done by the machine is calculated as;

useful work = 0.6 x 100 = 60 J

The wasted energy = 100 J - 60 J

The wasted energy = 40 J

The wasted energy by the machine is possibly converted to thermal energy by the frictional part of the machine.

Therefore, the work converted to thermal energy is 40 J.

Answer:

Yes, it's correct

Explanation:

Newton's second Law states that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force applied on it, according to the equation:

F=ma

where

F is the net force on the object

m is the mass of the object

a is the acceleration of the object

We can re-arrange the previous equation in order to solve explicitely for a, the acceleration, and we find:

F=ma\\\frac{F}{m}=\frac{ma}{m}\\\frac{F}{m}=a\\a=\frac{F}{m}

So, we see that the acceleration is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
