Answer:
Mechanical advantage = 2.875
Explanation:
Given:
A diagram is shown below for the above scenario.
Length of ramp (Effort arm) = 4.6 m
Height of truck bed ( Resistance length) = 1.6 m
Mechanical advantage (MA) is the ratio of effort arm and resistance length.
So, mechanical advantage is given as,

Ignoring air resistance, the Kinetic energy before hitting the ground will be equal to the potential energy of the Piton at the top of the rock.
So we have 1/2 MV^2 = MGH
V^2 = 2GH
V = âš2GH
V = âš( 2 * 9.8 * 325)
V = âš 6370
V = 79.81 m/s
Answer:
Impulse = Average force x time of contact
Explanation:
Impulsive force is a force which is very large but applied on a body for a very small duration of time.
Impulse is given by the change in momentum of the body.
Impulse = Average force x small time interval
When padding is there, the time interval of contact is large and thus, the force exerted by the body is small.
So, when a person falls on the tile floor, there is no compression and thus, the time of contact is very small and thus the impulsive force is very large, due to which the body may damage.
So, when a person falls on the carpeted floor, there is a compression and thus, the time of contact is comparatively large and thus the impulsive force is small, due to which the body may safe.
Answer:
More force
Explanation:
Object A has more mass than object B
For object A to accelerate at the same rate as object B, it will need more force.
According to Newton's second law of motion "the net force on a body is the product of its mass and acceleration".
Net force = mass x acceleration
Now, if a body has more mass and needs to accelerate at the same rate as another one with a lower mass, the force on it must be increased.
Speed = distance / time
S= 40 000m / 5400s
S= 7.41m/s
