The top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it. Because the contact between the bolt and the pliers working surface is less.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage ?</h3>

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system, it is used to obtained efficiency of the given mechanical machine.

The efficiency to open the stubborn bolt depends upon the contact between the working surface of the pliers and the bolt.

The contact between the bolt and the top pair of pliers working surface is less. Its mechanical advantage is less.

Hence, the top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it.

1. A base-ball of mass 0.3kg approaches the bat at a speed of 30 miles/hour and when the ball hits the bat for 0.5 s, it started

andre [41]

Answer:

I = 27kg.mi/h

Explanation:

In order to calculate the impulse of the ball, you use the following formula:

$I=m\Delta v$ $=m(v-v_o)$ (1)

m: mass of the ball = 0.3kg

v: speed of the ball after the bat hit it = 60mi/h

vo: speed of the ball before the bat hit it = 30mi/h

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

$I=(0.3kg)(60mi/h-(-30mi/h))=27kg\frac{mi}{h}$

where the minus sign of the initial velocity means that the motion of the ball is opposite to the final direction of such a motion.

The imulpse of the ball is 27 kg.miles/hour

1. FX = 0 since the bottom charges are symmetrical about the y axis and the top charge is aligned with the y-axis
3. FY > 0 since the bottom charges do not equate the top charge. The bottom charges have horizontal components which is less than q and adding them all, will not result to 3q.

A 27.0-m steel wire and a 48.0-m copper wire are attached end to end and stretched to a tension of 145 N. Both wires have a radi

algol13

Answer:

The time taken by the wave to travel along the combination of two wires is 458 ms.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of steel wire= 27.0 m

Length of copper wire = 48.0 m

Tension = 145 N

Radius of both wires = 0.450 mm

Density of steel wire $\rho_{s}= 7.86\times10^{3}\ kg/m^{3}$

Density of copper wire $\rho_{c}=8.92\times10^{3}\ kg/m^3$

We need to calculate the linear density of steel wire

Using formula of linear density

$\mu_{s}=\rho_{s}A$

$\mu_{s}=\rho_{s}\times\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$\mu_{s}=7.86\times10^{3}\times\pi\times(0.450\times10^{-3})^2$

$\mu_{s}=5.00\times10^{-3}\ kg/m$

We need to calculate the linear density of copper wire

Using formula of linear density

$\mu_{c}=\rho_{s}A$

$\mu_{c}=\rho_{s}\times\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$\mu_{c}=8.92\times10^{3}\times\pi\times(0.450\times10^{-3})^2$

$\mu_{c}=5.67\times10^{-3}\ kg/m$

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave along the steel wire

Using formula of velocity

$v_{s}=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_{s}}}$

$v_{s}=\sqrt{\dfrac{145}{5.00\times10^{-3}}}$

$v_{s}=170.3\ m/s$

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave along the steel wire

Using formula of velocity

$v_{c}=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_{c}}}$

$v_{c}=\sqrt{\dfrac{145}{5.67\times10^{-3}}}$

$v_{c}=159.9\ m/s$

We need to calculate the time taken by the wave to travel along the combination of two wires

$t=t_{s}+t_{c}$

$t=\dfrac{l_{s}}{v_{s}}+\dfrac{l_{c}}{v_{c}}$

Put the value into the formula

$t=\dfrac{27.0}{170.3}+\dfrac{48.0}{159.9}$

$t=0.458\ sec$

$t=458\ ms$

Hence, The time taken by the wave to travel along the combination of two wires is 458 ms.

At takeoff, an aircraft travels at 62 m/s, so that the air speed relative to the bottom of the wing is 62 m/s. Given the sea lev

olganol [36]

Answer:

the aircraft must travel at a speed of 73.4 m/s in order to create the ideal lift.

Explanation:

We will use Bernoulli's theorem in order to determine the pressure lift:

ΔP = 1/2 (ρ)(v₂² - v₁²)

the generated pressure lift is ΔP = 1000 N/m²

Therefore,

1000 = 1/2(ρ)(v₂² - v₁²)

v₂² - v₁² = 2000 / ρ

v₂² = (2000 N/m² / 1.29 kg/m³) + (62 m/s)²

v₂ = √[ (2000 N/m² / 1.29 kg/m³) + (62 m/s)² ]

v₂ = 73.4 m/s

Therefore, the aircraft must travel at a speed of 73.4 m/s in order to create the ideal lift.
