Answer:
Bicycle
Explanation:
A compound machine is a machine which is a combination of simple machines.
Simple machines are like the pulley, inclined plane or a screw.
Suppose a bicycle is considered, it has more than one simple machine combined together, for it to work. Wheel and axle is one of them and the beam which is pivoted at a fixed hinge is another simple machine in it.
The pedals of the bicycle function as the lever.
Answer:
Explanation:
the one thrown below the horizontal is going straight down, while the one above the horizontal will experience a projectile motion which will makes it move farther away from the building where it was projected.
Answer:
1.F = 256 N
2.a = 8 m/s/s
By looking at the given information, you know force, and an acceleration. Therefore you have enough information to use the first formula.
F = ma
256 N = m * 8 m/s/s
m = 256 N/8 m/s/s
m = 32 Kg
Well first of all, you must realize that it depends on how the jumpers are distributed on the earth's surface. If,say, one billion of them are in the eastern hemisphere and the other billion are in the western one, then the sum of all of their momenta could easily be zero, and have no effect at all on the planet. I'm pretty sure what you must have in mind is to consider the Earth to be a block, with a flat upper surface, and all the people jump in the same direction.
average mass per person = 60 kg.
jump velocity = 7 m/s straight up and away from the block, all in the same direction
one person's worth of momentum = (m) (v) = 420 kg.m/s
sum of two billion of them = 8.4 x 10¹¹ kg-m/s all in the same direction
Earth's "recoil" momentum = 8.4 x 10¹¹ in the opposite direction = (m) (v)
Divide each side by 'm' : v = (momentum) / (mass) =
The Earth's "recoil" velocity is (8.4 x 10¹¹) / (5.98 x 10²⁴) =
1.405 x 10⁻¹³ m/s =
<em> 0.00000000014 millimeter per second
</em>I have no intuitive feeling for this kind of thing, so can't judge whether
the answer is reasonable. But my math and physics felt OK on the
way to the solution, so that's my answer and I'm sticking to it.
