Hi there!

Steam powered boats use steam to propel and move the boat, while sailboats rely in the angle of the sail and the wind to move and turn.

Hope this helps!

Steam powered boats run from an engine, using power, gears, and cranks to function.

Sailboats use no engine and rely on winds to move and change the direction of the boat.

the electron are accelrated to a speed of 2.40*10^7 in 1.8*10^-9, the force experinced by an electron ?
dalvyx [7]
Force = mass × acceleration

To find acceleration, we can divide the speed by the time it took:

acceleration = 2.40×10^7 / 1.8×10^-9

acceleration = 1.33×10^16

the mass is equal to the mass of an electron

force = (9.11×10^-31)(1.33×10^16)

force = 1.21×10^-14 N

How does the input distance of a single fixed pulley compare to the out- put distance?
ololo11 [35]

A pulley is another sort of basic machine in the lever family. We may have utilized a pulley to lift things, for example, a banner on a flagpole.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The point in a fixed pulley resembles the support of a lever. The remainder of the pulley behaves like the fixed arm of a first-class lever, since it rotates around a point. The distance from the fulcrum is the equivalent on the two sides of a fixed pulley. A fixed pulley has a mechanical advantage of one. Hence, a fixed pulley doesn't increase the force.

It essentially alters the direction of the force. A moveable pulley or a mix of pulleys can deliver a mechanical advantage of more than one. Moveable pulleys are appended to the item being moved. Fixed and moveable pulleys can be consolidated into a solitary unit to create a greater mechanical advantage.
