Answer:

Bicycle

Explanation:

A compound machine is a machine which is a combination of simple machines.

Simple machines are like the pulley, inclined plane or a screw.

Suppose a bicycle is considered, it has more than one simple machine combined together, for it to work. Wheel and axle is one of them and the beam which is pivoted at a fixed hinge is another simple machine in it.

The pedals of the bicycle function as the lever.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

3.0 x 10¹ Nm

Explanation:

Torque = F x r

Where F is force applied and r is perpendicular distance from pivot point . r

is also called lever arm

Here F = 15 N and r = 2.0 m

Torque

= 15 N X 2.0 m

= 3.0 10¹ Nm.

<h2>Answer: B. Gravitational potential energy </h2>

Explanation:

<em>The gravitational potential energy is the energy that a body or object possesses, due to its position in a gravitational field. </em>

That is why this energy depends on the relative height of an object with respect to some point of reference and associated with the gravitational force.

In the case of the <u>Earth</u>, in which <u>the gravitational field is considered constant</u>, the value of the gravitational potential energy $U_{p}$ will be:

$U_{p}=mgh$

Where $m$ is the mass of the object, $g$ the acceleration due gravity and $h$ the height of the object.

As we can see, the value of $U_{p}$ is directly proportional to the height.

Which pair does NOT have an electric force between them?.

viva [34]

Two neutral objects will not have any electric force of attraction or repulsion between them.

<h3>What is the condition for the electric force between two objects?</h3>

As we know from the electrostatics that whenever there are two charges having a positive charge on one and a negative on the other will attract each other

similarly, if they are having like charges which are both of them having positive or both of them having a negative charge then there will be a force of repulsion between them.

But if both of them or even one of them is neutral then there will not be any electric force between them.

Thus neutral objects will not have any electric force of attraction or repulsion between them.

The Moon's center is 3.9x10 m from Earth's center. The Moon is 1.5x10^8 km from the Sun's center. If the mass of the Moon is 7.3

nika2105 [10]

Explanation:

It is given that The Moon's center is 3.9x10⁸ m from Earth's center. The moon 1.5x10⁸ km from the Sun's center. We need to find the ratio of the gravitational forces exerted by Earth and the Sun on the Moon.

The gravitational force is given by :

$F=\dfrac{Gm_em_m}{r^2}$
