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.

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.

4. The Coyote has an initial position vector of \vec r_0=(15.5\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\jmath.

4a. The Coyote has an initial velocity vector of \vec v_0=\left(3.5\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\,\vec\imath. His position at time t is given by the vector

\vec r=\vec r_0+\vec v_0t+\dfrac12\vec at^2

where \vec a is the Coyote's acceleration vector at time t. He experiences acceleration only in the downward direction because of gravity, and in particular \vec a=-g\,\vec\jmath where g=9.80\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}. Splitting up the position vector into components, we have \vec r=r_x\,\vec\imath+r_y\,\vec\jmath with

r_x=\left(3.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)t

r_y=15.5\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2

The Coyote hits the ground when r_y=0:

15.5\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=1.8\,\mathrm s

4b. Here we evaluate r_x at the time found in (4a).

r_x=\left(3.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(1.8\,\mathrm s)=6.3\,\mathrm m

5. The shell has initial position vector \vec r_0=(1.52\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\jmath, and we're told that after some time the bullet (now separated from the shell) has a position of \vec r=(3500\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\imath.

5a. The vertical component of the shell's position vector is

r_y=1.52\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2

We find the shell hits the ground at

1.52\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=0.56\,\mathrm s

5b. The horizontal component of the bullet's position vector is

r_x=v_0t

where v_0 is the muzzle velocity of the bullet. It traveled 3500 m in the time it took the shell to fall to the ground, so we can solve for v_0:

3500\,\mathrm m=v_0(0.56\,\mathrm s)\implies v_0=6300\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

Two 4.3546 cm x 4.3546 cm square aluminum electrodes, spaced 0.6408 mm apart are connected to a 73.68 V battery. What is the cap
Helen [10]

Answer:

Capacitance, C = 26.1 picofarad

Explanation:

It is given that,

Side of square, x = 4.3546 cm = 0.043546 m

Distance between electrodes, d = 0.6408 mm = 0.0006408 m

Voltage, V = 73.68 V

Capacitance of parallel plates is given by :

C=\dfrac{\epsilon_oA}{d}

C=\dfrac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times (0.043546)^2}{0.0006408}

C=2.61\times 10^{-11}\ F

or

C = 26.1 picofarad

So, the capacitance of the capacitor is 26.1 picofarad. Hence, this is the required solution.

Explain how an object moving at a constant speed can have a nonzero acceleration
SOVA2 [1]
Its very simple if a body is moving in circle the magnitude of its velocity remain constant  but its direction changes because velocity is directed towards tangent and at every point in a cirlce its direction will be different (along tangent) so velocity is not uniform .As acceleration is the rate  change of velocity  so it will be non zero because velocity is changing due to its direction.
