How much mechanical energy will be provided by a motor that is 70 percent efficient and requires 1960 joules of energy?

To calculate the mechanical energy provided by the motor, you need to divide the input energy by the efficiency of the motor. In this case, with 70% efficiency, you would divide 1960 joules by 0.70 to find that the mechanical energy provided would be approximately 2800 joules.


How do you find an object's mechanical energy?

To find an object's mechanical energy, you can sum its potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). The formula for mechanical energy (ME) is ME = PE + KE. Potential energy is typically due to an object's position or condition, while kinetic energy is related to its motion.


How would you calculate an objects mechanical energy?

Mechanical energy can be calculated as the sum of the object's kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE), where KE = 0.5 * mass * velocity^2 and PE = mass * acceleration due to gravity * height. The total mechanical energy is the sum of the object's KE and PE at a given moment.


When does an object have more mechanical energy than another object?

"Mechanical energy" is basically the sum of potential energy, and kinetic energy - thus, an object has more mechanical energy than another one when this sum is greater. You may just need to calculate these energies and add them up, to find out in specific cases.


How do you calculate mechanical energy using Em equals Ep plus Ek?

To calculate mechanical energy using the equation Em = Ep + Ek, you need to find the sum of the potential energy (Ep) and the kinetic energy (Ek) of the system. Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position relative to other objects, while kinetic energy is the energy of motion. By adding these two types of energy together, you can find the total mechanical energy of the system at a given moment.

How do you find the amount of mechanical energy lost when colliding with a floor?

To find the amount of mechanical energy lost when colliding with a floor, you can calculate the difference in kinetic energy before and after the collision. Subtract the final kinetic energy (which would be zero if the object comes to a stop) from the initial kinetic energy to determine the mechanical energy lost during the collision.

How would you find the total energy of a body executing simple harmonic motion?

Usually you would want to find only the total MECHANICAL energy. This is the sum of kinetic and potential energy. Due to conservation of mechanical energy (this assumes there is no friction), you can calculate the kinetic and the potential energy separately at any point of the movement, and then add them up. For example, at the extremes, when the body's instantaneous velocity is zero, you would only need to calculate the potential energy.
