BTEC Applied Science Unit 1: Efficiency Worksheet Name____________ efficiency = ( 100 %) 1 What is the efficiency of a motor that turns 100 J of electrical energy into 70 J of useful kinetic energy? Give your answer as a decimal. 2 An electric winch is used to lift a load of mass 2 kg a height of 1.5 m. It uses 50 J of energy when it does this. i) Calculate the amount of potential energy gained by the load using the formula: Ep = mgh where Ep is the potential energy

Gas Chromatography Purpose: The purpose of the gas chromatography lab is to find out how different substances interact with the surface of a solid. Chromatography is a separation technique that depends on the relative distribution of the components of a mixture between a mobile phase and a solid stationary phase. Chromatography measures the tendency of a substance to interact with the surface of a solid or to remain in a mobile phase. When doing a chromatography lab the mobile phase has to

Formula for Grade Average Calculation There are 3 grade averages: TGA‚ CGA and GGA. TGA (Term Grade Average) is the combined grade average covering all courses taken in the term and the session immediately following. CGA (Cumulative Grade Average) is computed based on all the courses taken by the student which are expected at the time of calculation to be applied towards the degree requirements in the current program. TGA & CGA = Sum of (Course Credits x Course grade points) Sum of Course Credits
