Answer:
The leverage or mechanical advantage of pulleys is less obvious, but you can "gang" multiple pulleys together into two sets (blocks) and run the ropes back and forth between the two sets to increase the number of lengths of rope running between them. One end of the rope is connected (fixed) to one of the blocks, and you get to pull on the other end after it is passed back and forth between the blocks of pulleys. This is sometimes called a block and tackle arrangement. With a hook on each side of the block set, you can move a heavy load much like levers do, by multiplying the force. You have to pull more rope just like you have to move a lever more on one side of the fulcrum as compared to the other. When you get all the rope pulled out that you can, you can not move the load anymore because you have become "two-blocked" which means the two blocks are together. Credits to: Moin Khan
Answer:
force is a derived quantity
work is a fundamental quantity
2.Force is measured in Newton why work is measured in Newton per seconds (N/s)
Explanation:
no
Answer:
Part a)
P = 13.93 kW
Part b)
R = 8357.6 Cents
Explanation:
Part A)
heat required to melt the aluminium is given by
here we have
Since this is the amount of aluminium per hour
so power required to melt is given by
Since the efficiency is 85% so actual power required will be
Part B)
Total energy consumed by the furnace for 30 hours
now the total cost of energy consumption is given as
Answer:
19% total electrical output
Explanation:
Answer:
Multiply the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.
Explanation:
The relationship between pressure, force and area is given by:
where in this case, p is the air pressure, F is the force exerted and A the area of the tabletop. By re-arranging the equation, we can solve for F, the force exerted:
So, the correct answer is:
The force exerted on the tabletop can be found by multiplying the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.
