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 cart traveling at 0.3 m/s collides with stationary object. After the collision, the cart rebounds in the opposite direction. T

padilas [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

First case

A cart speed is 0.3m/s. i.e the initial velocity is u=0.3m/s

It collide with a stationary body, then after collision the ball rebounds and move in opposite direction. This shows that the ball have a velocity after impulse let say v

Then, impulse is given as the change in linear momentum of a body

Impulse =m∆v

I=m(v-u)

Note, momentum is a vector quantity.

I=m(v--u)

I=m(v+u)

I=m(v+0.3)

I¹=0.3m+mv. Equation 1

Second case

A cart speed is 0.3m/s. i.e the initial velocity is u=0.3m/s

It collide with a stationary body, then after collision the ball is at rest, this show that the final velocity is v=0

Then, impulse is given as the change in linear momentum of a body

Impulse =m∆v

I=m(v-u)

Note, momentum is a vector quantity.

I=m(v--u)

I=m(v+u)

In this case v=0 u=0.3m/s

I=m(0+0.3)

I²=0.3m. Equation 2

If we compare impulse 1 (I¹) to impulse 2 (I²)

Subtract equation 2 from 1

We have, I¹ - I² =0.3m+mv -0.3m

I¹ - I² =mv

I¹ =mv+I²

We notice that the first impulse (I¹) is greater than second impulse (I²) by mv.

The correct answer is A

Think of a way you could demonstrate elastic force to a younger student. Describe the procedure you would follow and the materia

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

I feel like to demonstrate you would use an elastic band as the material. You obviously have to put force in order to see how far it stretches. From this you can also find about its resistance and durability

Also you have to make sure the distance between the two hands are equal as you want an accurate result.

What makes speed, velocity, acceleration, distance, and time different?

LekaFEV [45]

Explanation:

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time.

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

Velocity is given as the displacement per unit of time:

Velocity = $\frac{displacement}{time}$

Speed and velocity are similar but speed is a scalar quantity while velocity is a vector quantity. Speed has magnitude but does not point towards a specific direction. Velocity shows both magnitude and direction and it is a vector quantity.

Acceleration is given as the change in velocity with time. It is a vector quantity:

Acceleration = $\frac{change in velocity}{time}$

Distance is how far a body moves. It is scalar quantity.
Time is the duration of an event. It is a scalar quantity.
