Ideal mechanical advantage = Effort distance/Resistance distance

In the current scenario,
Effort distance = 4 cm
Resistance distance = 1 cm

Therefore,
Ideal mechanical advantage = 4/1 = 4

Answer:

IMA = Distance of Effort/ Distance of resistance

Explanation:

M.A is the force amplification of a machine.

Ideally, a screw driver has varying diameters on two ends, the shaft and the handle, however, since the question does not provide those parameters, we will assume shaft and handle have the same diameter.

DE = 4

DR = 1

Therefore, IMA = \frac{4}{1} = 4

If diameter is given, IMA is calculated by

Area of Effort/ Area of resistance i.e. AE/AR

A 3.00 x 10^2-W electric immersion heater is
andre [41]

Answer

t = 367.77 s = 6.13 min

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy:

Heat\ Supplied\ By \ Heater = Heat\ Absorbed\ by\ Glass + Heat\ Absorbed\ by\ Water\\Pt = m_gC_g\Delta T_g + m_wC_w\Delta T_w\\

where,

P = Electric Power of Heater =  300 W

t = time required = ?

m_g = mass of glass = 300 g = 0.3 kg

m_w = mass of water = 250 g = 0.25 kg

C_g = speicific heat of glass = 840 J/kg.°C

C_w =  specific heatof water = 4184 J/kg.°C

ΔT_g = ΔT_w = Change in Temperature of Glass and water = 100°C - 15°C

ΔT_g = ΔT_w = 85°C

Therefore,

(300\ W)(t) = (0.3\ kg)(840\ J/kg.^oC)(85^oC)+(0.25\ kg)(4184\ J/kg.^oC)(85^oC)\\

<u>t = 367.77 s = 6.13 min</u>

What is the definition of Mutualism
noname [10]
Mutualism is a long-term relationship where two organisms interact in such a way that both of them benefits from that relationship.

For example, there is a relationship between a bird called "oxpecker", and a rhino. While the bird eats the harmful bugs (eg. tick) on the rhino's skin and relieves its hunger; the rhino gets rid of the bugs that harm it.

If a car is taveling with a speed 6 and comes to a curve in a flat road with radius ???? 13.5 m, what is the minumum value the c
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

\mu_s \geq 0.27

Explanation:

The centripetal force acting on the car must be equal to mv²/R, where m is the mass of the car, v its speed and R the radius of the curve. Since the only force acting on the car that is in the direction of the center of the circle is the frictional force, we have by the Newton's Second Law:

f_s=\frac{mv^{2}}{R}

But we know that:

f_s\leq \mu_s N

And the normal force is given by the sum of the forces in the vertical direction:

N-mg=0 \implies N=mg

Finally, we have:

f_s=\frac{mv^{2}}{R}  \leq \mu_s mg\\\\\implies \mu_s\geq \frac{v^{2}}{gR}  \\\\\mu_s\geq \frac{(6\frac{m}{s}) ^{2}}{(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}})(13.5m) }\\\\\mu_s\geq0.27

So, the minimum value for the coefficient of friction is 0.27.

The specific heat capacity of ethanol is 2440J/kg °C. How many joules of energy will be required to heat 150g ethanol to 35°C if
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Required energy = 4758 J

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of a material is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one kilogram (kg) of that material through one degree Celsius (°C).    

Given data :

Specific heat capacity = c = 2440 J/kg.°C

Mass = m = 150 g = 0.15 kg

Initial temperature = 22°C

Final temperature = 35°C

Change in Temperature = ΔT = 13°C

Energy = E = ?

Using the following formula and substituting the values, we get:

E = m × c × ΔT

E = 0.15 × 2440 × 13

E = 4758 J
