A ramp is 1.0 m high and 3.0 m long. What is the IMA of the ramp?

1 answer:

4 0

To calculate the ideal mechanical advantage for an inclined plane, divide th length of the incline by the height of the incline.
Therefore; IMA = L/h
L= 3.0 m, while h =1.0 m
IMA = 3/1
= 3
Therefore the IMA of the ramp is 3
This means the ramp increases the force that is being exerted by 3 times.

Light of wavelength 630 nm falls on two slits and produces an interference pattern in which the third-order bright red fringe is

goblinko [34]

Answer:

d $\frac{x}{l}$ = m× λ⇒ d = λ ×m×l / x

= 630× $10^{-9}$ m × 3×3m/ 45× $10^{-3}$ m

= 1.26× $10^{-4}$ m

Explanation:

the above calculation is based on Young’s double slit experiment where the two slits provide two coherent light sources which results either constructive interference or destructive interference when passing through a double slit.

Ep=mgh
h= Ep/mg
h=57÷(3.3×9.8)
h= 57÷32.34
h= 1.8m
So; the answer is B. 1.8m

What advantage do space telescopes have over telescopes used on earth?

Elina [12.6K]

Earth's atmosphere blocks many types of light including gamma, x-rays most ultraviolet and infrared. So optical telescopes that use visible light and ultraviolet telescopes that are used to study very hot stars are much less effective on Earth.

An AM radio station broadcasts isotropically (equally in all directions) with an average power of 3.80 kW. A receiving antenna 7

Alecsey [184]

Answer:0.1759 v

Explanation:

Intensity of wave at receiver end is

I= $\frac{P_{avg}}{A}$

I= $\frac{3.80\times 10^3}{4\times \pi \times \left ( 4\times 1609.34\right )^2}$

I= $7.296\times 10^{-6} W/m^2$

Amplitude of electric field at receiver end

$E_{max}=\sqrt{2I\mu _0c}$

Amplitude of induced emf

= $E_{max}d$

= $\sqrt{2\times 7.29\times 10-6\times 4\pi \times 3\times 10^8}\times 0.75$

= $17.591\times 10^{-2}=0.1759 v$

In three sentences, please describe SIMPLE HARMONIC motion, and give two examples. Thank you! :-)

A system that repeats to and from its mean or rest point. that executes harmonic motion. a few examples I've heard of are since the springtime a mass-spring system,a swing, simple pendulum, one more example is a steel ball rolling in a curved is this what you need or do you need three more sentences dish. to get S.H.M a body just displaced away from the resting position and of course then is released. the human body oscillates due to the reinforce that pulls it back do you need anything else answered on this and I'll answer it
