(a) The mechanical advantage of the ramp is determined as 2.5.

(b) The pulley provides additional advantage since it assisted the boy in pulling up the load.

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

The mechanical advantage of an object is the ratio of output force to input force, hence it is called force ratio.

<h3>Mechanical advantage of the ramp</h3>

M.A = Lp/h

where;

  • Lp is the length of the inclined plane
  • h is height of the inclined plane

M.A = 10/4

M.A = 2.5

How much is the velocity of a body when it travels 600m in 5 minutes?​
maks197457 [2]

answer

so unit of velocity is m/s

displacement=600m

5minutes should be converted to seconds

5×60=300 seconds

so,

velocity= displacement÷time

= 600m ÷300s

=2m/s or 2ms^-1

A research submarine can withstand an external pressure of 62 megapascals (million pascals) all the while maintaining a comforta
Alex

Answer:

<em>The depth will be equal to</em> <em>6141.96 m</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

pressure on the submarine P_{sea} = 62 MPa = 62 x 10^6 Pa

we also know that P_{sea} = ρgh

where

ρ is the density of sea water = 1029 kg/m^3

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

h is the depth below the water that this pressure acts

substituting values, we have

P_{sea} = 1029 x 9.81 x h = 10094.49h

The gauge pressure within the submarine P_{g} = 101 kPa =  101000 Pa

this gauge pressure is balanced by the atmospheric pressure (proportional to 101325 Pa) that acts on the surface of the sea, so it cancels out.

Equating the pressure P_{sea}, we have

62 x 10^6 = 10094.49h

depth h = <em>6141.96 m</em>

Racewalking involves more impact than running. true false
natta225 [31]
I think the statement is false. Racewalking involves less impact than running. It <span> is a long-distance discipline within the sport of athletics. Although it is a foot race, it is different from running in that one foot must appear to be in contact with the ground.</span>
