Answer: 6.4 times.

Explanation:

First, remember the definition of work as:

W = F*d

where W is work, F is force and d is distance.

The work applied when using the machine is:

W = 10N*14m = 140J

The work that you would apply if you did not use the machine is:

W' = 180N*5m = 900J.

The ratio W'/W is = 900J/140J = 6.4

This means that the machine has made 6.4 times the work easier. (you needed 6.4 times less work to do the task

In an evironmental system of subsystem, the mass balance equation is:__________.
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass balance is an application of conservation of mass, to the analysis of physical system. This is given in an equation form as

Input = Output + Accumulation

The conservation law that is used in this analysis of the system actually depends on the context of the problem. Nevertheless, they all revolve around conservation of mass. By conservation of mass, I mean that the fact that matter cannot disappear or be created spontaneously.

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tank. The fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differential h
Sloan [31]

Answer:

77.88 lbm/ft³

Explanation:

Given,

Specific gravity, SG = 1.25

Density of water, ρ = 62.30 lbm/ft³

density of the fluid =

   = S.G x ρ_{water}

   = 62.30 x 1.25

   = 77.88 lbm/ft³

Density of the fluid is equal to 77.88 lbm/ft³

An green hoop with mass mh = 2.8 kg and radius rh = 0.17 m hangs from a string that goes over a blue solid disk pulley with mass
vladimir2022 [97]
The mass of the hoop is the only force which is computed by:F net = 2.8kg*9.81m/s^2 = 27.468 N 
the slow masses that must be quicker are the pulley, ring, and the rolling sphere. 
The mass correspondent of M the pulley is computed by torque τ = F*R = I*α = I*a/R F = M*a = I*a/R^2 --> M = I/R^2 = 21/2*m*R^2/R^2 = 1/2*m 
The mass equal of the rolling sphere is computed by: the sphere revolves around the contact point with the table. So using the proposition of parallel axes, the moment of inertia of the sphere is I = 2/5*mR^2 for spin about the midpoint of mass + mR^2 for the distance of the axis of rotation from the center of mass of the sphere. I = 7/5*mR^2 M = 7/5*m 
the acceleration is then a = F/m = 27.468/(2.8 + 1/2*2 + 7/5*4) = 27.468/9.4 = 2.922 m/s^2

A 4.89 μC test charge is placed 4.10 cm away from a large, flat, uniformly charged nonconducting surface. The force on the charg
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The new force on the test charge is 145.02N

Explanation:

Force on a unit positive charge can be calculated using coulomb's law.

F =Kq²/r²

Where

F is the force on the charge = 321 N

K is a constant = 8.99 X10⁹ Nm²/C²

q is a test charge = 4.89 μC  = 4.89 X10⁻⁶ C

r is the distance between the charge and the surface = 4.1cm

F ∝1/r²

Force on the charge is inversely proportional the square of distance between the charge and the surface.

Fr² = constant

F₁r₁² = F₂r₂²

F₂ = F₁r₁²/r₂²

If the charge is then moved 2.00 cm farther away from the surface;

The new distance becomes 4.10 cm + 2.00 cm = 6.1 cm

Therefore, r₂ = 6.1 cm, r₁ = 4.1 cm, F₁ =321 N

F₂ = (321 X4.1²)/(6.1²)

F₂ = 145.02N

Therefore, The new force on the test charge is 145.02N
