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.

The blades in a blender rotate at a rate of 7700 rpm. when the motor is turned off during operation, the blades slow to rest in

Tpy6a [65]

Angular acceleration = (change in angular speed) / (time for the change)

Change in angular speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

For this fan, speed at the end = 7700 rpm, speed at the end = 0 .

Change in angular speed = -7700 rpm

Angular acceleration = (-7700 rpm) / (2.5 sec)

<em>Angular acceleration = -3,080 rev per minute / sec</em>

That's a perfectly good and true answer to the question, but the units are ugly. We really need to fix the units, and convert them into something prettier before we hand in this assignment.

1 rev = 2π radians, and

1 minute = 60 seconds .

Angular acceleration =

(-3,080 rev/min-sec) · (2π rad/rev) · (1 min/60 sec)

AngAccel = (-3,080 · 2π · 1 / 60) · (rev·rad·min / min·sec·rev·sec)

AngAccel = ( -102 and 2/3 · π) · (rad/s²)

<em>AngAccel = -322.5 radian/s²</em>

A box is at rest on a table. What can you say about the forces acting on the box?

Nikitich [7]

You can tell a lot about an object that's not moving,
and also a lot about the forces acting on it:

==> If the box is at rest on the table, then it is not accelerating.

==> Since it is not accelerating, I can say that the forces on it are balanced.

==> That means that the sum of all forces acting on the box is zero,
and the effect of all the forces acting on it is the same as if there were
no forces acting on it at all.

==> This in turn means that all of the horizontal forces are balanced,
AND all of the vertical forces are balanced.

Horizontal forces:
sliding friction, somebody pushing the box

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero. So ...

(sliding friction force) = (pushing force), in the opposite direction.

If nobody pushing the box, then sliding friction force = zero.

Vertical forces:
gravitational force (weight of the box, pulling it down)
normal force (table pushing the box up)

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero, so ...

(Gravitational force down) + (normal force up) = zero

(Gravitational force down) = -(normal force up) .
