1. Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA): 9
Explanation:
For a wheel and axle system like the steering wheel, the IMA is given by:
where
is the radius of the wheel
is the radius of the axle
For the steering wheel of the problem, we see that and , so the IMA is
2. Efficiency: 88.9%
Explanation:
The efficiency of a system is defined as the ratio between the AMA (actual mechanical advantage) and the IMA:
In this problem, AMA=8 and IMA=9, so the efficiency is
Answer:
B. The elastic portion of a straight-line, downward-sloping demand curve corresponds to the segment above the midpoint.
Explanation:
Elasticity measures the sensitivity of one variable to another. Specifically it is a figure that indicates the percentage variation that a variable will experience in response to a variation of another one percent.
The elasticity of demand measures the reaction of demand when one of the factors that affects it varies.
<u>Elasticity - Price of demand.</u>
easure the sensitivity of the quantity demanded to price variations. It indicates the percentage variation that the quantity demanded of a good will experience if its price rises by 1 percent.
<u>
Elastic Demand
</u>
The demand quantity is relatively sensitive to price variations, so the total expenditure on the product decreases when the price rises, the price elasticity takes value greater than -∞ but less than -1
Answer:
the height reached is = 0.458 [m]
Explanation:
We need to make a sketch of the ball and see the location of the reference point where the potential energy is zero. But the kinetic energy will be defined by the following expression:
Replacing the values on the equation we have:
This kinetic energy will be transformed in potential energy in the moment when the ball starts to rolling up. Therefore the maximum height reached by the ball depends of the initial velocity given to the ball.
Now we have:
In that moment when the ball reach the 0.45 [m] the potencial energy will be maximum and equal to the kinetic energy when the ball has a velocity of 3[m/s]
Answer:
Explanation:
Did you ever end up getting an answer? Or like did you find out which segment it was?
The diagram represents a chain reaction that is caused by nuclear fission.
<h3>What is a nuclear fission reaction?</h3>
A nuclear fission reaction is a reaction in which the nucleus of a larger atom is split into two or more smaller nucleus of atoms.
Nuclear fission can proceed in the form of a chain reaction in which the products of the first fission reaction are used to initiate further fission reactions.
Therefore, the diagram represents a chain reaction that is caused by nuclear fission.
