Mechanical advantage = ideal mechanical advantage x efficiency = 3.5 x 0.6 = 2.1
The mechanical advantage of the inclined plane is 2.1
Answer:
<em>The minimum pressure car tire pressure is 300,000 Pa</em>
Explanation:
<u>Pressure</u>
It's a measure of the force exerted by an object per unit surface:

Where F is the force applied on a surface area A.
We are given the total weight of a car with passengers as Ft=30,000 N and we also know the area of contact of each tire with the ground as
.
The minimum pressure each tire can have is when the total weight is evenly distributed in all four tires, thus F=Ft/4=7,500 N.
Calculating the pressure:

P=300,000 Pa
The minimum pressure car tire pressure is 300,000 Pa
Answer:
Distance: -30.0 cm; image is virtual, upright, enlarged
Explanation:
We can find the distance of the image using the lens equation:

where:
f = 15.0 cm is the focal length of the lens (positive for a converging lens)
p = 10.0 cm is the distance of the object from the lens
q is the distance of the image from the lens
Solving for q,

The negative sign tells us that the image is virtual (on the same side of the object, and it cannot be projected on a screen).
The magnification can be found as

The magnification gives us the ratio of the size of the image to that of the object: since here |M| = 3, this means that the image is 3 times larger than the object.
Also, the fact that the magnification is positive tells us that the image is upright.
