A: Some physical properties change, but the substance keeps its identity.
The mechanical advantage of a simple machine is the measure of its amplified force gain.
The mechanical advantage is defined as the force amplified by a machine to the force required to generate such output.
are the amplified force and applied force. We may also consider them as output and input force.
In the given question, the force given to the steering wheel is 50 N.
The output force produced by the steering wheel is 3750 N.
Hence the mechanical advantage will be-
[ans]
Answer:
iv) It is 9x bigger than before
Explanation:
As the amplitudes of the new speakers add directly with the original one, taking into account the phase that they have, the composed amplitude of the sound wave is as follows:
At = A + 4A -2A = 3 A
The intensity of the wave, assuming it propagates evenly in all directions, is constant at a given distance from the source, and can be expressed as follows:
I = P/A
where P= Power of the wave source, A= Area (for a point source, is equal to the surface area of a sphere of radius r, where is r is the distance to the source along a straight line)
For a sinusoidal wave, the power is proportional to the square of the amplitude, so the intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude also.
If the amplitude changes increasing three times, the change in intensity will be proportional to the square of the change in amplitude, i.e., it will be 9 times bigger.
So, the statement iv) is the right one.
