Calculate Effort , Mechanical advantage and Velocity ratio
Physics
1 answer:
Leviafan [203]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a. Effort = 960 Newton

b. Mechanical advantage (M.A) = 0.625

c. Velocity ratio (V.R) = 1.67

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Load = 600 N

Length of crowbar = 200 cm

Length of load arm = 0.75 m

Conversion:

100 cm = 1 m

X cm = 0.75 m

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 0.75 * 100 = 75 cm

First of all, we would find the effort arm;

Effort arm = length of crow bar - length of load arm

Effort arm = 200 - 75

Effort arm = 125 cm

Next, we would determine the mechanical advantage (M.A) of the crow bar;

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

M.A = 0.625

To find the effort of the crow bar;

Making "effort" the subject of formula, we have;

Effort = 960 Newton

Lastly, we would determine the velocity ratio (V.R);

V.R = 1.67

A spring stretches by 15cm when a mass of 300g hangs down from it,if the spring is then stretched an additional 10cm and release
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

0.1 m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the object, m = 350 g = 0.35 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 5.2 N/m

Amplitude of the oscillation, A = 10 cm = 0.1 m

Frequency of a spring mass system is given by :

What did physicist James Joule's famous paddle wheel experiment demonstrate?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

<u>Answer </u>

A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water


<u>Explanation</u>

James Joule allowed some water to fall from a height of 1 foot. the water would turn a paddle wheel at the bottom causing a temperature of water to raise.

The height form which the water fell, mass and the temperature of water was measured and used to calculate mechanical equivalent of heat.

From the choices given the best answer is A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water.

A 60 kg skydiver is falling at a terminal velocity of 50 m/s.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

The gravitational force is definitely acting downwards towards the ground and this is equal to the weight of the skydiver.

the acceleration a = 7.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that :

the mass of the skydiver = 60 kg

Velocity = 50 m/s

Thus;  gravitational force is definitely acting downwards towards the ground and this is equal to the weight of the skydiver.

Also; the air resistance is acting upward and the resultant of both forces = mass×acceleration

So;

mg-R = ma

60(9.8) - 120 = 60(a)

588 -120 = 60a

468 = 60a

a = \frac{468}{60}

a = 7.8 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration a = 7.8 m/s²
