How does an inclined plane affect the effort needed to move a load vertically?

Physics
1 answer:
VashaNatasha [74]3 years ago
5 0

If we pull an object vertically upwards then we need to apply a force which is equal in the magnitude of the weight of the object

F = mg

now when we pull the same object upwards along an inclined plane with angle then we require a force which will balance the component of weight along the inclined

so it is given as

F' = mgsin\theta

so as if we compare the two forces we can say that since the value of sine is always less than 1 for an angle less than 90 degree

so in the 2nd case when we pull the object along the inclined plane it will require less effort

so correct answer is

<em>A. reduce effort</em>

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

3.679 × 10^{8}

Explanation:

Let's assume that average lifespan for normal human being is 70 years.

In 70 years there are 365 days in each year.

70 years = 70 × 365 days

In one day there are 24 hours.

70 years = 70 × 365 × 24 hours

In one hour there are 60 minutes.

70 years = 70 × 365 × 24 × 60 minutes

we estimate an average respiration rate of about 10 breaths per minute. ... (Given)

Thus, for 70 years number of breath are,

n = 70 × 365 × 24 × 60 × 10

n = 3.679 × 10^{8}

Hence, estimate number of breath over a period of life is 3.679 × 10^{8}.

ANSWER ASAP . Which of the screws below requires the least amount of effort force to turn?
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Screw X

Explanation:

  • In the screw x, the threads of the inclined plane are closer together. Therefore this screw has a greater mechanical advantage and hence it is easier to turn than the other screws.
  • Therefore,it takes less force to penetrate the wood with the screw X.

zavuch27 [327]
Imagine a ball is moving on the following horizontal line.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . O. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Take right as positive. O is the starting point of the ball. Denote the ball by o.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . O. . . . . . . ... . . o . . . . . .

Assume the ball is moving to the right. It has positive displacement since it is on the right of O, and positive velocity since its positive displacement is increasing.

.ñ

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . O. . . . o . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Now the ball is returning to O. It still has positive displacement since its current position is still on the right of O. However, its velocity is negative since its positive displacement is decreasing and the direction of the velocity vector points left, which is the negative side.

By now you should be able to come up with a scenario where the ball has negative displacement and positive velocity.

You can observe the same phenomenon in daily life. Say, as a stretched spring bounces to its starting position, if we let the returning direction be positive, the string has negative displacement since it is on the negative direction, but has positive velocity. Bungee jump can also used to illustrate the phenomenon.
