Answer:

1) D. The gear decreases resistance force

2) B. A car opener

Explanation:

1): A bicycle uses a gear to decrease the resistance force as when the gears are shifted, the chain moves from a larger ring to a smaller one thus reducing the surface area of the ring as well as friction which results into a greater speed by applying same amount of effort.

2): As a compound machine is a combination of more than one simple machine. Out of all the options, a car opener is said to be a compound machine as it consist of a lever, screw, wedge and axle and wheel.

These are some of the simple machines which combines to make a complex machine ( car opener ).

A psychopathologist records the number of criminal offenses among teenage drug users in a nationwide sample of 1,201 participant

lara [203]

Answer:

Standard deviation = 3

Explanation:

Given

$N = 1201$

$SS = 10800$

Required

Determine the standard deviation

First, we need to determine the variance;

$Variance = \frac{SS}{N - 1}$

This gives:

$Variance = \frac{10800}{1201 - 1}$

$Variance = \frac{10800}{1200}$

$Variance = 9$

Know that:

$Variance = SD^2$

Where SD represents standard deviation

This gives

$9 = SD^2$

Take square root

$SD = \sqrt 9$

$SD = 3$

Does a light bulb with a greater wattage have a greater brightness

Tamiku [17]

Only within the same technology. / / / If both of the bulbs you're comparing are incandescent, or both fluorescent, or both CFL, or both LED, then the one that uses more power is brighter. But a CFL with the same brightness as an incandescent bulb uses less power, and an LED bulb with the same brightness as both of those uses less power than either of them.

A shuttle on Earth has a mass of 4.5 E 5 kg. Compare its weight on Earth to its weight while in orbit at a height of 6.3 E 5 met

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

83%

Explanation:

On the surface, the weight is:

W = GMm / R²

where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the shuttle, and R is the radius of the Earth.

In orbit, the weight is:

w = GMm / (R+h)²

where h is the height of the shuttle above the surface of the Earth.

The ratio is:

w/W = R² / (R+h)²

w/W = (R / (R+h))²

Given that R = 6.4×10⁶ m and h = 6.3×10⁵ m:

w/W = (6.4×10⁶ / 7.03×10⁶)²

w/W = 0.83

The shuttle in orbit retains 83% of its weight on Earth.
