The ideal mechanical advantage of the pulley system is 3
Explanation:
Calcium carbonate is a molecule that contains one atom of calcium, one atom of carbon, and three atoms of oxygen.
Answer:
In the air
Explanation:
There are three states of matter:
- Solids: in solids, the particles are tightly bond together by strong intermolecular forces, so they cannot move freely - they can only vibrate around their fixed position
- Liquids: in liquids, particles are more free to move, however there are still some intermolecular forces keeping them close to each other
- Gases: in gases, particles are completely free to move, as the intermolecular forces between them are negligible
For this reason, it is generally easier to compress/expand the volume of a gas with respect to the volume of a liquid.
In this problem, we are comparing water (which is a liquid) with air (which is a gas). From what we said above, this means that the change in volume is larger in the air rather than in the water.
F = net force acting on the elevator in upward direction = 3000 N
m = mass of the elevator = 1200 kg
a = acceleration of the elevator = ?
Acceleration of the elevator is given as
a = F/m
a = 3000/1200
a = 2.5 m/s²
v₀ = initial velocity of the elevator = 0 m/s
Y = displacement of the elevator = 15 m
t = time taken
Using the kinematics equation
Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²
15 = (0) t + (0.5) (2.5) t²
t = 3.5 sec
