Engineers who design battery-operated devices such as cell phones and MP3 players try to make them as efficient as possible. An

engineer tests a cell phone and finds that the batteries supply 10,000 J of energy to make 5500 J of output energy in the form of sound and light for the screen. How efficient is the phone?

efficiency= [useful energy transferred ÷ total energy supply]×100%

So, [5500÷10000]×100%=0.55×100

                                        =55%

A 10. g cube of copper at a temperature T1 is placed in an insulated cup containing 10. g of water at a temperature T2. If T1 &g
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

a. The temperature of the copper changed more than the temperature of the water.

Explanation:

Because we're only considering the isolated system cube-water, the heat of the system should be constant, that implies the heat the cube loses is equal the heat the water gains (because by zero law of thermodynamics heat (Q) flows from hot body to cold body until reach thermal equilibrium and T1>T2). So:

Q_{cube}=Q_{water} (1)

But Q is related with mass (m), specific heat (c) and changes in temperature (\varDelta T)in the next way:

Q=cm\varDelta T(2)

Using (2) on (1):

c_{cooper}*m_{cooper}*\varDelta T_{cooper}=c_{water}*m_{waterer}*\varDelta T_{water}

(10g)(0.385 \frac{J}{g\,C})(\varDelta T_{cooper})=(10g)(4.186 \frac{J}{g\,C})(\varDelta T_{water})

(0.385 \frac{J}{g\,C})(\varDelta T_{cooper})=(4.186 \frac{J}{g\,C})(\varDelta T_{water})

Because we have an equality and 0.385 < 4.186 then \varDelta T_{cooper}>\varDelta T_{waterer} to conserve the equality

A champion athlete can produce one horsepower (746 W) for a short period of time. The number of 16-cm-high steps a 70-kg athlete
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

407 steps

Explanation:

From the question,

P = mgh/t........... Equation 1

Where P = power, m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height, t = time.

Make h the subject of the equation

h = Pt/mg............. Equation 2

Given: P = 746 W, t = 1 minute = 60 seconds, m = 70 kg.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

h = 746(60)/(70×9.8)

h = 44760/686

h = 65.25 m

h = 6525 cm

number of steps = 6525/16

number of steps = 407 steps

elena55 [62]

Answer:

Answer:

15.67 seconds

Explanation:

Using first equation of Motion

Final Velocity= Initial Velocity + (Acceleration * Time)  

v= u + at

v=3

u=50

a= - 4 (negative acceleration or deceleration)  

3= 50 +( -4 * t)

-47/-4 = t

Time = 15.67 seconds

A satellite that orbits Earth with a speed of v0 must be in an orbit of radius 8RE to maintain a circular orbit, where RE is the
NISA [10]

Answer:

1.024 × 10⁸ m

Explanation:

The velocity v₀ of the orbit 8RE is v₀ = 8REω where ω = angular speed.

So, ω =  v₀/8RE

For the orbit with radius R for it to maintain a circular orbit and velocity 2v₀, we have

2v₀ = Rω

substituting ω =  v₀/8RE into the equation, we have

2v₀ = v₀R/8RE

dividing both sides by v₀, we have

2v₀/v₀ = R/8RE

2 = R/8RE

So, R = 2 × 8RE

R = 16RE

substituting RE = 6.4 × 10⁶ m

R = 16RE

= 16 × 6.4 × 10⁶ m

= 102.4 × 10⁶ m

= 1.024 × 10⁸ m
