What is the major factor controlling how levers work?

Physics

Gekata [30.6K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Displacement between Fulcrum, Job and Force

Explanation:

The employment and use of levers is simple. Levers reduce the force required to do a task by introducing the concept of moment.

There are there components in a simple lever.

1) The Fulcrum

2) The Job (Load)

3) The Force (Effort)

Typically if it weren't for levers then the three points/components would be at the same point. A lever creates a displacement between all these three components create moment. The higher the displacement between the three the lower the force (effort) required to do the job (lift the load).

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

Using the principle of conservation of energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, assuming any losses.

Kinetic energy is given by ½mv²

Potential energy is given by mgh

Where m is the mass, v is the velocity, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

Equating kinetic energy to be equal to potential energy then

½mv²=mgh

V

Making v the subject of the formula

v=√(2gh)

Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g and 10 m for h then

v=√(2*9.81*10)=14.0071410359145 m/s

Rounding off, v is approximately 14 m/s
