Answer:
The answer is B: to Amplify the sound
Answer:
A book on its side exerts a greater force.
Explanation:
Pressure = Force / Area
Assuming that 1kg = 10N
2kg = 20N
Area of book lying flat = 0.3m × 0.2m
= 0.6m²
Pressure of book lying flat = 20N / 0.6m²
= 30Pa (1 s.f.)
Area of book on its side = 0.2m × 0.05m
= 0.01m²
Pressure of book on its side = 20N / 0.01m²
= 2000Pa (1 s.f.)
Since 2000Pa (1 s.f.) > 30Pa (1 s.f.), a book on its side applies greater pressure than lying flat.
to be franc i really think the answer is B
Correct Answers is A.
The machines gives us some mechanical advantage. This means the mechanical average makes the work output greater than the work input
Simple most example is a lever. The force applied is smaller and the output work is larger as compared to input.
Option B cannot be true, as there must be a force to get some work done.
Option C and D are inverse of what a machine is designed for. A small force can be exerted through a large distance to have a large force exerted through a small distance. Common Example of this principle is a screw opener.
