Answer: Lever

A wheelbarrow consists of a lever to be able to lift the material, and a wheel to be able to move it horizontally. So in a sense, a wheelbarrow is a complex machine consisting of two simple machines.

It would be lever, wheelbarrows function like one, however they do not act like a wedge, the three machines it is made of is lever wheel and axel

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

150000000000 m

0.0000005 seconds

33.33 ns

Explanation:

Speed of electromagnetic waves through vacuum = $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

Echo time = 1000 seconds

Echo time is the time taken to reach the object and come back to the observer

Distance = Speed×Time

$Distance=3\times 10^8\times \frac{1000}{2}=150000000000\ m$

Venus is 150000000000 m away from Earth

Time = Distance / Speed

$Time=\frac{75}{3\times 10^8}=0.00000025\ seconds$

Echo time will be twice the time

$Echo\ time=2\times 0.00000025=0.0000005\ seconds$

The echo time will be 0.0000005 seconds

Difference in time = Difference in distance / Speed

$\Delta t=\frac{\Delta d}{v}\\\Rightarrow \Delta t=\frac{10}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow \Delta=33.33\ ns$

The accuracy by which I will be able to measure the echo time is 33.33 ns

Nresistors, each having resistance equal to 1 2, are arranged in a circuit first in series and then in parallel. What is the rat

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

option (b)

Explanation:

Let the resistance of each resistor is R.

In series combination,

The effective resistance is Rs.

rs = r + R + R + .... + n times = NR

Let V be the source of potential difference.

Power in series

Ps = v^2 / Rs = V^2 / NR ..... (1)

In parallel combination

the effective resistance is Rp

1 / Rp = 1 / R + 1 / R + .... + N times

1 / Rp = N / R

Rp = R / N

Power is parallel

Rp = v^2 / Rp = N V^2 / R ..... (2)

Divide equation (1) by equation (2) we get

Ps / Pp = 1 / N^2

From the following statements about mechanical waves, identify those that are true for transverse mechanical waves only, those t

Dominik [7]

'In transverse waves, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the flow of energy' is true for transverse waves only.

'In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the flow of energy' is true for longitudinal waves only.

'Many wave motions in nature are a combination of longitudinal and transverse motion' is true for both longitudinal and transverse waves.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Longitudinal waves are those where the direction of propagation of particles are parallel to the medium' particles. While transverse waves propagate perpendicular to the medium' particles.

As wave motions are assumed to be of standing waves which comprises of particles moving parallel as well as perpendicular to the medium, most of the wave motions are composed of longitudinal and transverse motion.

So the option stating the medium' particle moves perpendicular to the direction of the energy flow is true for transverse waves. Similarly, the option stating the medium' particle moves parallel to the direction of flow of energy is true for longitudinal waves only.

And the option stating that wave motions comprises of combination of longitudinal and transverse motion is true for both of them.
