Answer:

m = 4

Explanation:

It is given that,

A 100 Newton force applied to a machine lifts a 400 N object.  

We need to find the mechanical advantage of  this machine.

The mechanical advantage of a machine is given by the ratio of output force to the input force.

Here, output force is 400 N and input force is 100 N

So, mechanical advantage becomes :

m=\dfrac{400}{100}\\\\m=4

So, the mechanical advantage of this machine is 4.

While standing on a balcony a child drops a penny. The penny lands on the ground floor 1.5 s later. How fast was the penny trave
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

14.7 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (t) = 1.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s².

Height = 11.025 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) =?

We, can obtain the initial velocity of the penny as follow:

H = ½(v + u) t

11.025 = ½ (0 + u) × 1.5

11.025 = ½ × u × 1.5

11.025 = u × 0.75

Divide both side by 0.75

u = 11.025/0.75

u = 14.7 m/s

Therefore, the penny was travelling at 14.7 m/s before hitting the ground.

A plane travelling at 63 m/s[S] down a runway begins accelerating uniformly at 2.8 m/s?[S]. How far does it travel
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

270 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 63 m/s

a = 2.8 m/s²

t = 4.0 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (63 m/s) (4.0 s) + ½ (2.8 m/s²) (4.0 s)²

Δx = 274.4 m

Rounded to two significant figures, the displacement is 270 meters.

A steel ball of mass 50 g is rolled from the left toward a ball of lead of mass 500 g. The steel ball is traveling with a veloci
alina1380 [7]

Answer: It's hard to say without characterizing the collision. But it will be either A if the collision is totally in-elastic, or B if the collision is totally elastic. It could be anywhere in between for partially elastic collisions.

Explanation:

momentum is conserved, so initial system momentum will be left to right.

The velocity of the center of mass is 50(5) / 550 = 0.4545... m/s

In an elastic collision, the lead ball will move off at twice that speed or 0.91 m/s to the right.

The steel ball will bounce back and move away at 0.91 - 5 = -4.1 m/s . The negative sign indicates the steel ball has reversed course and has negative momentum

In a totally in-elastic collision, both balls would move to the right at 0.45 m/s. The steel ball will still have positive momentum.
