The mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is the radius of the wheel divided by the radius of the axle. On wheel and axle A,

the wheel and axle are very close in size. On wheel and axle B, the radius of the wheel is much greater than the radius of the axle.
Which wheel and axle has the greater mechanical advantage?

Answer:

Wheel and axle B

Explanation:

It is given that the mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is the radius of the wheel divided by the radius of the axle.

Mathematically, it can be written as :

MA=\dfrac{r_w}{r_a}.................(1)

On wheel and axle A, the wheel and axle are very close in size while on wheel and axle B, the radius of the wheel is much greater than the radius of the axle.

From equation (1) it is clear that the mechanical advantage is directly proportional to the radius of wheel.

So, the mechanical advantage of wheel and axle B is greater.

A neutron consists of one "up" quark of charge +2e/3 and two "down" quarks each having charge -e/3. If we assume that the down q
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force is 120.85 N

Explanation:

We can use Coulomb's law to find the electrostatic force between the down quarks.

In scalar form, Coulomb's law states that for charges q_1 and q_2 separated by a distance d, the magnitude of the electrostatic force F between them is:

F = k \frac{|q_1q_2|}{d^2}

where k is Coulomb's constant.

Taking the values:

d = 4.6 \ 10^{-15} m

q_1 = q_2 = - \frac{e}{3} = - \frac{1.6 \ 10^{-19} \ C}{3}

and knowing the value of the Coulomb's constant:

k = 8.99 \ 10 ^{9} \frac{N m^2}{C^2}

Taking all this in consideration:

F = 8.99 \ 10 ^{9} \frac{N m^2}{C^2} \frac{ (- \frac{1.6 \ 10^{-19} \ C}{3} ) ^2}{(4.6 \ 10^{-15} m)^2}

F = 120.85  \ N

How is energy harnessed to do useful work?
baherus [9]

Answer:

But there are ways to harness kinetic energy to either generate useful mechanical work or electricity. This is what many have tried to do to make use of energy that would be otherwise wasted. One way to harness kinetic energy that has popped up many times in recent years has to do with roads and speed bumps

When the atom's electrons step down to lower energy levels in a thin cloud of hot gas, what is produced?
Reika [66]

Answer: The correct answer is an emission line spectrum.

Explanation:

When the electrons are excited to the higher energy level, the energy is absorbed in this case.

When the electrons in the atom step down to lower energy levels in a thin cloud of hot gas then the radiation will emit.

The electron will lose energy in this case in the form of radiation. There will be an emission line spectrum.
