The efficiency of a machine indicates how well its input energy is converted to useful output energy or work. It is a major factor in the usefulness of a machine and is the fraction or percentage of the output divided by the input.
According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, the total output energy or work must equal the total input energy. However, some of the input energy does not contribute to the output work and is lost to such things as friction and heat.
Examples of machine efficiency include a lever, automobile, and perpetual motion machine.
Wavelength = (speed)/(frequency) = 300,000,000/120,000,000 = 2.5 meters
Answer: 31.85 m/s
Explanation:
Since we are talking about constant acceleration, we can use the following equation to find the speed of the rocket:
Where:
is the distance the rocket has traveled
is the time in which the rocket has traveled the distance
Solving the equation with the given data:
This is the rocket's speed
Answer:
2.4*10^-17 J
Explanation:
E = V/d = 300 V / 3*10^-3 m = 1.0*10^5 V/m
Voltage at midpoint = E*d = 1.0*10^5 V/m * 1.5*10^-3 m = 150 V
ΔV = 300 V - 150 V = 150 V
Charge of a proton = 1.6*10^-16 C
U = qΔV = (1.6*10^-16 C)(150V) = 2.4*10^-17 J
Answer:
Explanation:
There are different ways to investigate the factors that affect resistance. In this practical activity, it is important to:record the length of the wire accuratelymeasure and observe the potential difference and currentuse appropriate apparatus and methods to measure current and potential difference to work out the resistance
