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.

A tank of volume 0.25 ft is designed to contain 50 standard cubic feet of air. The temperature is 80° F.Calculate the pressure i
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The inside Pressure of the tank is 4499.12 lb/ft^{2}

Solution:

As per the question:

Volume of tank, V = 0.25 ft^{3}

The capacity of tank, V' = 50ft^{3}

Temperature, T' = 80^{\circ}F = 299.8 K

Temperature, T = 59^{\circ}F = 288.2 K

Now, from the eqn:

PV = nRT                      (1)

Volume of the gas in the container is constant.

V = V'

Similarly,

P'V' = n'RT'                       (2)

Also,

The amount of gas is double of the first case in the cylinder then:

n' = 2n

\]frac{n'}{n} = 2

where

n and n' are the no. of moles

Now, from eqn (1) and (2):

\frac{PV}{P'V'} = \frac{nRT}{n'RT'}

P' = 2P\frac{T'}{T} = 2\times 2116\times \frac{299.8}{288.2} = 4499.12 lb/ft^{2}

Which of the following best describes the circuit shown below?
Rudiy27

Answer:

Short circuit

Explanation:

The given figure shows a short circuit. It is defined as the circuit which allows the flow of electric current when there is no resistance. It shows a battery, bulb and connecting wires.

The wire across the bulb is connected from one terminal to another without any resistance in between them.

So, the correct option is (d) " short circuit ".

A helium nucleus (charge = 2e, mass = 6.63 10-27 kg) traveling at 6.20 105 m/s enters an electric field, traveling from point ci
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

v_B=3.78\times 10^5\ m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on helium nucleus is 2e and its mass is 6.63\times 10^{-27}\ kg

Speed of nucleus at A is v_A=6.2\times 10^5\ m/s

Potential at point A, V_A=1.5\times 10^3\ V

Potential at point B, V_B=4\times 10^3\ V

We need to find the speed at point B on the circle. It is based on the concept of conservation of energy such that :

increase in kinetic energy = increase in potential×charge

\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_A^2-v_B^2)=(V_B-V_A)q\\\\\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_A^2-v_B^2)={(4\times 10^3-1.5\times 10^3)}\times 2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}=8\times 10^{-16}\\\\v_A^2-v_B^2=\dfrac{2\times 8\times 10^{-16}}{6.63\times 10^{-27}}\\\\v_A^2-v_B^2=2.41\times 10^{11}\\\\v_B^2=(6.2\times 10^5)^2-2.41\times 10^{11}\\\\v_B=3.78\times 10^5\ m/s

So, the speed at point B is 3.78\times 10^5\ m/s.
