Hello!

Explanation:

↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

Simple machines have few or no moving parts. They make work easier.

  1. Inclined plane
  2. Wedge
  3. Screw
  4. Lever
  5. Wheel and axle
  6. Pulley

Inclined plane is a sloping surface, such as a ramp. Inclined plane make it easier to lift objects. The distance is greater, but the amount of force used is less. The amount of work done is the same. Wedge is used to split things apart. Force is applied to the large area of the wedge. The force is concentrated on a smaller area at the pointed end. The wedge looks like two inclined planes placed back to back. A screw can hold things together. The threading grips materials. The threading on a screw looks like an inclined plane spiraling around the outside of the screw. Large screw are also used to lift things. A car jack lifts a car by using a large screw. A lever is a strong bar that turns about a fulcrum, or fixed point. It can be used to lift heavy objects. Force applied at one end is transmitted to the other end. A lever can change the direction of a force. Moving the position of the fulcrum affects how much force is needed. A wheel and axle consists of two circular objects of different sizes that are connected. The smaller-diameter object, the axle, is a rod that goes through the wheel and lets the wheel turn. When the axle is turned, the wheel moves a greater distance, but less force is needed to move it. A pulley changes the direction of a force. A pulley consists of a grooved wheel and a rope. Pulling down on the rope lifts objects. A construction crane uses a series of pulleys. A flagpole has a pulley at the top.

Hope this helps!

At a given time of​ day, the ratio of the height of an object to the length of its shadow is the same for all objects. If a 4​-f
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:35.2 ft

Explanation:

Given

height of stick =4 ft

shadow length =2.8 ft

Angle of elevation of sun is

tan\theta =\frac{4}{2.8}

let the height of tree be h

as \thetawill remain same thus

tan\theta =\frac{h}{24.64}

\frac{4}{2.8}=\frac{h}{24.64}

h=35.2 ft

Type the correct answer in the box. Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Calculate the man’s mass. (Use PE = m × g × h
Blababa [14]

Answer:

56 kg

Explanation:

The change in potential energy of the man is given by:

\Delta U = mg \Delta h

where

m is the man's mass

g is the gravitational acceleration

\Delta h is the change in height of the man

In this problem, we have:

\Delta U=4620 J is the gain in potential energy

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

\Delta h=8.4 m is the change in height

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find the mass:

m=\frac{\Delta U}{g\Delta h}=\frac{4620 J}{(9.8 m/s^2)(8.4 m)}=56 kg

An ac generator consists of a coil with 40 turns of wire, each with an area of 0.06 m2. The coil rotates in a uniform magnetic f
Reptile [31]

Answer:

331.75 V

Explanation:

Given:

Number of turns of the coil, N = 40 turns

Area, A = 0.06 m²

Magnetic Field, B = 0.4 T

Frequency, f = 55 Hz

                           Maximum induce emf, E₀ = NABω

but ω = 2πf

                           Maximum induce emf, E₀ = NAB(2πf₀)

                           Maximum induce emf, E₀ = 2πNABf₀

Where;

N is number of turns of the coil

A is area

B is magnetic field

ω is the angular velocity

f is the frequency

                                     E₀ = 2 × π × 40 × 0.06 × 0.4 × 55

                                     E₀ = 342.81 V

The maximum induced emf is 331.75 V

wildlife biologists are working to save some unique birds in the forest of north georgia.which of these questions must be answer
Maru [420]
Extinct<span> might be a word you associate with animals that lived long ago, like the dinosaurs, but did you know that over 18,000 species are classified as "threatened" (susceptible to extinction) today? Scientists involved in wildlife conservation have a tough job; they are in charge of determining what needs to be done to prevent a species from becoming extinct. Habitat, food supply, and impacts of local human populations are just a few of the factors these scientists take into account. It is a lot to keep track of for a single location, but the job becomes even harder when it is a migratory animal. In this science project, you will get a firsthand look at their job. You will access </span>real<span> data about migratory birds and use satellite images to analyze their habitats, then come up with a conservation plan to protect the species from extinction.</span>
