Why is the efficiency of a machine always less than 100%?

Physics
1 answer:
never [62]3 years ago

Answer:The percentage of the work input that becomes work output is the efficiency of a machine. Because there is always some friction, the efficiency of any machine is always less than 100 percent.

Cause and Effect: What would happen to a space vehicle in orbit around Earth if it sped up?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

G M m / R^2 = m v^2 / R     gravitational force = centripetal force

G M = v^2 R   =    constant

As v increases R will must decrease

Take the moon as an example

S = 2 pi R   where R is about 240,000 miles for one orbit

S / 1 day = 54,000 miles/day  for a 28 day circuit

S / 1 hr = 54000 / 24 = 2200 mph  which is much less than a satellite in orbit

An electric furnace is to melt 40 kg of aluminium/hour. The initial temperature of aluminium is 32°C. Given that aluminium has s
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Part a)

P = 13.93 kW

Part b)

R = 8357.6 Cents

Explanation:

Part A)

heat required to melt the aluminium is given by

Q = ms\Delta T + mL

here we have

Q = 40(950)(680 - 32) + 40(450 \times 10^3)

Q = 24624 kJ + 18000 kJ

Q = 42624 kJ

Since this is the amount of aluminium per hour

so power required to melt is given by

P = \frac{Q}{t}

P = \frac{42624}{3600} kW

P = 11.84 kW

Since the efficiency is 85% so actual power required will be

P = \frac{11.84}{0.85} = 13.93 kW

Part B)

Total energy consumed by the furnace for 30 hours

Energy = power \times time

Energy = 13.93 kW\times 30 h

Energy = 417.9 kWh

now the total cost of energy consumption is given as

R = P \times 20 \frac{Cents}{kWh}

R = 417.9 kWh\times  20 \frac{cents}{kWh}

R = 8357.6 Cents
