A 5 kg object is moving at a velocity of 2 m/s. Calculate its kinetic energy.
Work done = m × g × h = 50 kg × 9.8 m/s^2 × 2 m = 980 J
A machine lifts a 100 kg load to a height of 5 m in 10 seconds. If the machine requires an input energy of 5000 J, calculate its efficiency.
W = F × s = 50 N × 2 m = 100 J
Efficiency = (Work done / Energy input) × 100% = (980 J / 2000 J) × 100% = 49%
