(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

Delvig [45]

Answer:

Sound waves are produced when something vibrates.  

Explanation:

The vibrating body causes the medium (water, air, etc.)  Vibrations in air are called traveling longitudinal waves, which we can hear. Sound waves consist of areas of high and low pressure called compressions and rarefactions, respectively.

Sorry if this if  wrong

Wind Energy is the kind of energy will Cassie uses to power the boat.

What is wind energy?

The method of producing electricity using air or wind currents that naturally occur in the earth's atmosphere is known as wind energy (or wind power). Electricity is produced by modern wind turbines that harness the kinetic energy of the wind. Wind passing across the turbine's blades is the initial step.

What is the major problem with wind energy?

Wind energy has the potential to have negative environmental effects, including the possibility of reducing, fragmenting, or deteriorating habitat for wildlife, fish, and plants, as with all energy supply choices. Furthermore, flying animals like birds and bats may be harmed by turbine blades in operation.
