A 10-meter long ramp has a mechanical advantage of 5. What is the height of the ramp?

Physics

<span><span>1.       </span>If the ramp has a length of 10 and has a mechanical advantage (MA) of 5. Then we need to find the height of the ramp.
Formula:
MA = L / H
Since we already have the mechanical advantage and length, this time we need to find the height .
MA 5 = 10 / h
h = 10 / 5
h = 2 meters

Therefore, the ramp has a length of 10 meters, a height of 2 meters with a mechanical advantage of 5.</span>

What is the direction of the magnetic field if an electron moving in the positive x direction experiences a magnetic force in th
Alex787 [66]

Given :

An electron moving in the positive x direction experiences a magnetic force in the positive z direction.

To Find :

The direction of the magnetic field.

Solution :

We know, force is given by :

\vec{F}=q(\vec{v}\times \vec{B)}

Here, q = -e.

\vec{F}=(-e)(\vec{v}\times \vec{B)}\\\\\hat{k}=(-e)(\hat{i}\times \vec{B})

Now, for above condition to satisfy :

\hat{i}\times \vec{B}=-\hat{k}

So, \vec{B}=-\hat{j}

Therefore, direction of magnetic field is negative y direction.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why do conductors transfer heat faster than insulators?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Conduction is usually faster in certain solids and liquids than in gases. Materials that are good conductors of thermal energy are called thermal conductors. Metals are especially good thermal conductors because they have freely moving electrons that can transfer thermal energy quickly and easily.

Heat transfer by convection happens through the air, and there are millions of minuscule air spaces between the fibers. Heat transfer by radiation is also slow since one fiber must radiate its heat to another.

When we give heat then kinetic energy is increase and this heat is transferred from hot metal to cold metal through this free electrons. As in insulator the free electrons are negligible so that the heat is not transferred from hot junction to cold junction due to absence of this free electrons.

15. A body moving with a velocity of 20 m/s begins to accelerate at 3 m/s2. How far does the body move in 5 seconds? A. 137.5 m
Rudik [331]

Answer is B. According to the equation of motion s = vt + 1/2 at2 Where s is distance covered, v is velocity, a is acceleration and t is time taken. So, by putting all the values, we get s = (20)(5) + 1/2 (3)(5)2 s = 100 + 1/2 (3)(25) s = 100 + 1/2 75 s = 100 + 37.5 s = 137.5 meters

A downhill skier was able to move 560 meters in 25 seconds. What is the skier’s average speed? (Round your answer to the nearest
anastassius [24]
The average speed of a moving body is given by:
average speed = total distance / total time
average speed = 560 / 25
22.4 meters per second

The skier is traveling at an average velocity of 22.4 meters per second.
