Answer:

It is impossible to construct a machine which produces the work output greater than the work input.

Let us consider the II law of thermodynamics.

According to Kelvin Plank's statement any engine/machine does not give hundred percent efficiency. And violating the PMM-II(Perpetual motion of machine II kind), Always some amount of energy transferred to the sink or surroundings.

Therefore

W(ouput) = Q₁-Q₂

There are many reasons to lower the work output, just for an example friction between the mating parts reduces the work output.

Answer:

Explanation:

A machine makes are work easier. The mechanical advantage of a machine tells us the ability of machine to multiply the input force. No machine is 100% efficient. It means it cannot convert all the input completely to output, let alone give a greater output. Some of the work that is input into the machine is always lost in overcoming friction produced.

Which option gives an object's volume in Sl units?

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

K is the SI unit for Kelvin which measures temperature.

kg is NOT an SI unit, g is the SI unit for mass.

L is NOT an SI unit, m^3 is the SI unit for volume.

Therefore the answer is B.

Unpolarized light is passed through an optical filter that is oriented in the vertical direction.

VashaNatasha [74]

In order to solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to intensity and specifically described in Malus's law.

Malus's law warns that

$I = I_0 cos^2\theta$

Where,

$\theta=$ Angle between the analyzer axis and the polarization axis

$I_0 =$ Intensity of the light before passing through the polarizer

The intensity of the beam from the first polarizer is equal to the half of the initial intensity

$I = \frac{I_0}{2}$

Replacing with our the numerical values we get

$I = \frac{46}{2}$

$I = 23W/m^2$

Therefore the intensity of the light that emerges from the filter is $23W/m^2$

What is the IEEE 802.11a center frequency in GHz, and what are its max/min data rates in Mbps? What is the IEEE 802.11b center f

kogti [31]

Explanation:

What is IEEE 802.11?

IEEE 802.11 is a set of WLAN standards for communication developed by the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and is unarguably most widely used WLAN technology.

Features: IEEE 802.11a

The operating frequency band is 5 GHz.
The maximum theoretical data rate is 54 Mbps, the typical throughput is around 25 Mbps and minimum data rate is 6 Mbps.
It can support 64 users per access point.

Features: IEEE 802.11b

The operating frequency band is 2.4 GHz.
The maximum theoretical data rate is 11 Mbps but typical throughput is around 6 Mbps and minimum data rate is 1 Mbps.
It can support 32 users per access point.

Wireless Coverage IEEE 802.11a Vs IEEE 802.11b:

Signal coverage is one of the most important factors among users.
The transmission range of IEEE 802.11a is not greater than 100 ft in indoor setting whereas IEEE 802.11b has a superior performance in this regard with transmission range up to 150 ft in indoor setting.
The data rate has a direct relation with the access point coverage area, a higher data rate means less coverage area and a lower data rate results in increased coverage.
