Answer:

Mechanical Advantage (MA)

Explanation:

The Mechanical Advantage (MA) of a machine is defined as:

$MA= \frac{F_{out}}{F_{in}}$

where

$F_{out}$ is the output force

$F_{in}$ is the input force

Machines are used as force multiplier, which means that they are able to produce an output force which is greater than the input force (and example of machine is the lever). Therefore, the MA of a machine represents the "multiplication factor" of the input force: for instance, if a machine has a MA of 5, it means that the output force is 5 times the force applied in input.

AVprozaik [17]

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$ </h2>

Explanation:

A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet.

Mass of the planet = mass of earth = 5.972 x $10^{24}$ Kg

Radius of the earth = 90% of earth radius = 90% 6370 = 5733 km

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = ?

By formula, g = $\frac{GM}{r^{2} }$

where g is the acceleration due to the gravity

G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ $m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}$

M is the mass of the planet

r is the radius of the planet

Substituting the values, we get

g = $\frac{(6.67 * 10^{-11}) (5.972 * 10^{24}) }{5733^{2} }$

g = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$

A 2.0-kg ball has a momentum of 25kg.m/s what is the ball's speed?

Reil [10]

We know, momentum = mass * speed

25kgm/s = 2 kg * s

s = 25/2 = 12.5 m/s

A car takes off from rest takes of from rest and covers a distance of 80m on a straight road in 10s.Calculate the magnitude of i

hodyreva [135]

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s [the car was at rest]
Distance (s) = 80 m
Time (t) = 10 s
Let the magnitude of acceleration be a.
By using the equation of motion, $s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}$ we get, $80 = 0 \times 10 + \frac{1}{2} \times a \times {10}^{2} \\ = > 80 = \frac{1}{2} \times 100a \\ = > 80 = 50a \\ = > a = \frac{80}{50} \\ = > a = 1.6$

Answer:

The magnitude of its acceleration is 1.6 m/s^2.

Hope you could get an idea from here.
