Percent means out of 100 → 3 percent of 100 g = 3/100 × 100 g = 3 g
20/100 x 100 = 20 percent
36 percent of 100 is 36.
100% of 62 = 100% * 62 = 1 * 62 = 62
A ratio is 100 percent when it is compared with itself. For example : 100 to 100, 50 to 50, etc.
Any diode is less than 100% efficient because there is a forward voltage drop across the diode. This translates to power loss, because power is voltage times current.
Basically, almost NO physical process is 100% efficient.
because they are not proper
at 0'kelvin
No, nuclear generators are not 100 percent efficient. They typically have an efficiency rate of around 30-40%, which means that 30-40% of the energy from the nuclear reactions is converted into electricity, while the rest is lost as heat.
Some energy is lost to friction.
Power plants are not 100% efficient because some energy is lost in the form of heat during the generation and transmission of electricity. This loss occurs due to factors such as friction, resistance in the electrical lines, and limitations in converting heat to electricity. Additionally, no machine or system can operate without any losses due to the laws of thermodynamics.
Efficiency of power plants is usually measured as a ratio of the total amount of electrical power produced divided by the total amount of heat generated, expressed as a percentage. Thus, if a power plant produces 100 MWh thermal, and this is converted to 38 MWh of electricity, the plant is 38% efficient. Most power plants are 35% to 40% efficient. This is true for nuclear as well as fossil fuel plants. Some plants are much more efficient. A natural gas plant, used in a situation with cogeneration, can be as much as 65% efficient. The lost heat is put into the environment and is referred to as thermal pollution.
becaus ethey have friction
There are losses in any machinery- friction of moving parts, loss of heat from steam, a turbine will only capture PART of the energy of the water or steam striking it, and generators do not convert ALL mechanical energy to electricity. There is also electrical resistance in the cables.
The 80+ certification ensures that the power supplies you're buying achieves at least 80% efficiency from power draw (out from the outlet) to what your computer actually gets. The Bronze to Platinum and Titanium ratings up the minimum requirements from as high as 85 to 90% efficiencies.
When a radio is not 100 percent efficient, it means that not all the electrical energy input is converted into useful radio frequency output. Some energy is lost as heat or in other non-useful forms, resulting in less effective performance and potential inefficiencies in power consumption.
