The height through which the water is lifted is 196.25 m.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage?</h3>

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system.

Mechanical advantage is also defined as the ratio of output force to input force in a system.

Mechanical Advantage = Output force / input force

12.5 = output force / 15.7

output force = 15.7 x 12.5

output force = 196.25 m

Thus, the height through which the water is lifted is 196.25 m.

A 5.0-μC charge is placed at the 0 cm mark of a meter stick and a -4.0 μC charge is placed at the 50 cm mark. At what point on a

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The distance from charge 5 μ C = 26.45 cm and the distance from - 4 μ C is 23.55 cm.

Explanation:

Given that

q₁ = 5 μ C

q₂ = - 4 μ C

The distance between charges = 50 cm

d= 50 cm

Lets take at distance x from the charge μ C ,the electrical field is zero.

That is why the distance from the charge - 4 μ C = 50 - x cm

We know that ,electric field is given as

$E=K\dfrac{q}{r^2}$

$K\dfrac{5\ \mu}{x^2}=K\dfrac{4\mu }{(50-x)^2}\\\\\dfrac{5}{x^2}=\dfrac{4 }{(50-x)^2}\\\\\\5(50-x)^2=4x^2\\(50-x)^2=0.8x^2\\\\50-x =0.89x\\\ x=\dfrac{50}{1.89}\ cm\\\\\\x=26.45\ cm\\$

Therefore the distance from charge 5 μ C = 26.45 cm and the distance from - 4 μ C is 23.55 cm.

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

(a) 135 kV

(b) The charge chould be moved to infinity

Explanation:

(a)

The potential at a distance of <em>r</em> from a point charge, <em>Q</em>, is given by

$V = -\dfrac{kQ}{r}$

where $k = 9\times 10^9 \text{ F/m}$

Difference in potential between the points is

$kQ\left[-\dfrac{1}{0.2\text{ m}} -\left( -\dfrac{1}{0.1\text{ m}}\right)\right] = \dfrac{kQ}{0.2\text{ m}} = \dfrac{9\times10^9\text{ F/m}\times3\times10^{-6}\text{ C}}{0.2\text{ m}}$

$PD = 135\times 10^3\text{ V} = 135\text{ kV}$

(b)

If this potential difference is increased by a factor of 2, then the new pd = 135 kV × 2 = 270 kV. Let the distance of the new location be <em>x</em>.

$270\times10^3 = kQ\left[-\dfrac{1}{x}-\left(-\dfrac{1}{0.1\text{ m}}\right)\right]$

$10 - \dfrac{1}{x} = \dfrac{270000}{9\times10^9\times3\times10^{-6}} = 10$

$\dfrac{1}{x} = 0$

$x = \infty$

The charge chould be moved to infinity
