1.8 is the mechanical advantage of the lever.

<h3>Definition of mechanical advantage</h3>

The theoretical mechanical advantage of a system is the ratio of the force that performs the useful work to the force applied, assuming there is no friction in the system.

The advantage gained by the use of a mechanism in transmitting force specifically the ratio of the force that performs the useful work of a machine to the force that is applied to the machine.

Mechanical advantage is given by the ratio of the load lifted to the force applied to lift the load.

In this case, Mechanical advantage=L/E where L is the load and E is the effort applied.

Mechanical advantage= 90/50 =1.8

Question-you use a lever to lift a heavy tree branch. you apply a force of 50 n and the lever lifts the branch with a force of 90 n. what is the mechanical advantage of the lever?

Estimate how far apart the rays of deepest red and deepest violet light are as they exit the bottom surface. assume nred = 1.57
Harlamova29_29 [7]
We begin by noting that the angle of incidence is the one that's taken with respect to the normal to the surface in question. In this case the angle of incidence is 30. The material is Flint Glass according to the original question. The refractive indez of air n1=1, the refractive index of red in flint glass is nred=1.57, finally for violet in the glass medium is nviolet=1.60. Snell's Law dictates:
n_1sin(\theta_1)=n_2sin(\theta_2)
Where \theta_2 differs for each wavelenght, that means violet and red will have different refractive indices in the glass.
In the second figure provided details are given on which are the angles in question, \Delta x is the distance between both rays.
\theta_{2red}=Asin(\frac{sin(30)}{1.57})\approx 18.5705
\theta_{2violet}=Asin(\frac{sin(30)}{1.60})\approx 18.21
At what distance d from the incidence normal will the beams land at the bottom?
For violet we have:
d_{violet}=h.tan(\theta_{2violet})\approx 0.0132m
For red we have:
d_{red}=h.tan(\theta_{2red})\approx 0.0134m
We finally have:
\Delta x=d_{red}-d_{violet}\approx2.8\times10^{-4}m

What force does a trampoline have to apply to a 45.0-kg gymnast to accelerate her straight up at 7.50 m/s^2? (a) 104N (b) 338 N
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

b) 338 N

Explanation: let m be the mass of the gymnast and a be the acceleration of the gymnast.

the force required to accelerate the gymnast is given by:

F = m×a

  = (45.0)×(7.50)

  = 337.5 N

Therefore, the force a trampoline has to apply is 138 N.

The refractive index n of transparent acrylic plastic (full name Poly(methyl methacrylate)) depends on the color (wavelength) of
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The angle between the blue beam and the red beam in the acrylic block is  

 \theta _d  =0.19 ^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  refractive index of the transparent acrylic plastic for blue light is  n_F  =  1.497

     The  wavelength of the blue light is F  =  486.1 nm  =  486.1 *10^{-9} \ m

    The  refractive index of the transparent acrylic plastic for red light is  n_C  =  1.488

       The  wavelength of the red light is C =  656.3 nm  = 656.3 *10^{-9} \  m

    The incidence angle is  i  =  45^o

Generally from Snell's law the angle of refraction of the blue light  in the acrylic block  is mathematically represented as

       r_F =  sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(i) *  n_a }{n_F} ]

Where  n_a is the refractive index of air which have a value ofn_a =  1

So

     r_F =  sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(45) *  1 }{ 1.497} ]

      r_F  =  28.18^o

Generally from Snell's law the angle of refraction of the red light in the acrylic block is mathematically represented as

       r_C =  sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(i) *  n_a }{n_C} ]

Where  n_a is the refractive index of air which have a value ofn_a =  1

So

     r_C =  sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(45) *  1 }{ 1.488} ]

      r_F  =  28.37^o

The angle between the blue beam and the red beam in the acrylic block

     \theta _d  =  r_C  - r_F

substituting values

       \theta _d  = 28.37 -  28.18

       \theta _d  =0.19 ^o
