Answer:

B. galaxies

Explanation:

Galaxies are clusters of stars, gas and dark matter. They are classified based on the shape they form. There are three main categories: Spiral, elliptical, and irregular. As their named suggests, that is what they look like.

Barred spiral galaxies are a subcategory of spiral galaxies. The nucleus of the galaxy (Center) a bar material is formed and arms branch out from the ends of it.

Some galaxies on the other hand, do not fit the main categories.

Attached is a picture of the common and uncommon categories of galaxies.

We need to consider for this exercise the concept Drag Force and Torque. The equation of Drag force is

F_D = c_D A \frac{\rho V^2}{2}

Where,

F_D = Drag Force

c_D = Drag coefficient

A = Area

\rho= Density

V = Velocity

Our values are given by,

c_D = 0.5 (That is proper of a cone-shape)

A = 9m^2

\rho = 1.2Kg/m^3

V = 6.5m/s

Part A ) Replacing our values,

F_D = 0.5*9*\frac{1.2*6.5^2}{2}

F_D = 114.075N

Part B ) To find the torque we apply the equation as follow,

\tau = F*d

\tau = (114.075N)(7)

\tau = 798.525N.m

What is the mechanical advantage of a nail puller where you exert a force 45 cm from the pivot and the nail is 1.8 cm on the oth
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the distance of the input load (Li)from the pivot to the output load applied to the pivot(Lo)

MA = Li/Le

Given;

Li = 45cm

Lo = 1.8cm

MA = 45/1.8

MA = 25

Hence the mechanical advantage is 25

Also MA is expressed in terms of the force ratio which is the ratio of the Load to the effort applied.

MA = Load/Effort

Given

Load = 1250N

MA = 25

Effort = ?

Substitute

25 = 1250/Effort

Effort = 1250/25

Effort = 50N

Hence the minimum force exerted on the load is 50N
