The efficiency of the process is 42%

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Useful energy = 250 watt

Wasteful energy = 600 watt

<h3>Efficiency =? </h3>

The efficiency of the process can be obtained as illustrated below:

$efficiency \: = \frac{useful \: energy}{wasteful \: energy} \times 100 \\ \\ efficiency \: = \frac{250}{600} \times 100 \\$

<h3>Efficiency = 42%</h3>

Therefore, the efficiency of the process is 42%

Thinking about the winter we missed out on this year. Calvin and his tiger go sledding down a snowy hill. There is friction betw

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

a) W=0, b) Work is negative, c) work is positive and scientific energy variation is positive, d) the variation of the potential enrgy is negative,

e) total work is positive

Explanation:

Work in physics is defined by the scalar scalar product of force by displacement

W = F. dx

The bold are vectors; this can be written in the form of the mules of the quantities

W = F dx cos θ

where θ is the angle between force and displacement.

a) The normal force is perpendicular to the inclined plane which is perpendicular to the displacement, therefore the angle is

θ = 90 cos 90 = 0

W=0

In conclusion the work is zero

b) The friction force opposes the displacement whereby the angle is

θ = 180 cos 190 = -1

W = - fr d

Work is negative

c) To calculate the change in kinetic energy we use that the work is equal to the variation of the kinetic energy

m g sin θ L = ΔK

this magnitude is positive since the angle is zero cos 0 = 1

how the system starts from rest ΔK = Kf -K₀= + Kf -0

work is positive and scientific energy variation is positive

d) change in potential energy

The potential energy is is ΔU = Uf -U₀

we fix the reference system in the bases of the plane so Uf = 0

ΔU = -U₀

the variation of the potential enrgy is negative

e) The total work is formed by the work of the weight component, the work of the friction force

W_Total = W_weight - W_roce

as the body moves down

W_Total> 0

Therefore the total work is positive

A 29.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge while its far end is supported by a cable such that the beam is horizontal.

castortr0y [4]

The vertical component of force exerted by the hi.nge on the beam will be,142.10N.

To find the answer, we need to know more about the tension.

<h3>How to find the vertical component of the force exerted by the hi.nge on the beam?</h3>

Let's draw the free body diagram of the system.
To find the vertical component of the force exerted by the hi.nge on the beam, we have to balance the total vertical force to zero.

$F_V+T sin\alpha -mg=0\\F_V=mg-Tsin\alpha \\$

To find the answer, we have to find the tension,

$Tlsin\alpha - mg\frac{l}{2}sin\beta =0\\ \\Tlsin\alpha = mg\frac{l}{2}sin\beta\\\\Tsin57=\frac{mg}{2}sin90\\\\T=\frac{mg}{2sin57} =169.43N$

Thus, the vertical component of the force exerted by the hi.nge on the beam will be,

$F_V=(29*9.8)-(169.43*sin57)=142.10N$

Thus, we can conclude that, the vertical component of force exerted by the hi.nge on the beam will be,142.10N.
