If a lever has an input arm of 80 cm and an output arm of 20 cm, what is its ideal mechanical advantage?

What is the IMA of the following pulley system?

Furkat [3]

Answer: $IMA= \frac {F_r}{F_e}$

Explanation:

IMA stands for Ideal Mechanical advantage.

The IMA of pulley system can be defined as the ratio of output force to input force.

From the given pulley system,

The input force = $F_e$

The output force = $F_r$

Hence, IMA of the given pulley system,

$IMA= \frac {F_r}{F_e}$

the specific heat of gold is 0.031 calories degrees Celsius and the specific heat of silver is 0.057 calories degrees Celsius so

givi [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Specific heat of gold = 0.031cal/°C

Specific heat of silver = 0.057cal/°C

To know the metals that will heat up faster, we must understand the meaning of specific heat capacity.

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1g of a substance by 1°C.

Now,

The higher the specific heat capacity the more energy it is required to heat up the substance.

So, Gold with a specific heat capacity of 0.031cal/°C will heat up faster.

In which situation is no work considered to be done by a force?

andre [41]

If the angle is either 0 or 180, that means that there is either negative or positive work, so A and D are not correct.
If the angle is 45, then there is still some work involved.
The only option where there is no work done by a force is B. when the angle is between the force and displacement is 90.

What is the value of acceleration due to gravity at the pole, equator and the centre of the earth

fgiga [73]

Answer:

In combination, the equatorial bulge and the effects of the surface centrifugal force due to rotation mean that sea-level gravity increases from about 9.780 m/s2 at the Equator to about 9.832 m/s2 at the poles, so an object will weigh approximately 0.5% more at the poles than at the Equator.

By what factors does the speed of the elctron exceed that of the proton?

____ [38]

Answer:

» An electron is lighter than a proton.

explanation:

${ = \: \sf{an \: electron \: has \: formula \: \: }}{ \bf{ {}^{0}_{ - 1}e }}$

hence it's mass number is zero

${ = \: \sf{an \: electron \: is \: helium \: particle \: \: }}{ \bf{ {}^{4} _{2}He }}$

hence it's mass number is 4

Therefore, proton is heavier than electron

» An electron has a small charge magnitude than a proton.

Explanation:

An electron has charge of -1 while proton has charge of +2, therefore electron is less deflected by any energetic fields than a proton
