Mechanical advantage = ideal mechanical advantage x efficiency = 3.5 x 0.6 = 2.1
The mechanical advantage of the inclined plane is 2.1
Answer:
The speed of meteoroid is 21.61 km/s in south-east.
Explanation:
Given that,
A meteoroid is traveling through the atmosphere at 18.3 km/s. while descending at a rate of 11.5 km/s it means 11.5 km/s in south.
We need to draw a diagram
Using Pythagorean theorem




Hence, The speed of meteoroid is 21.61 km/s in south-east.
Using the kinematic equation d = V_0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2, where d is height you can rewrite this to be d = 1/2*g*t^2 or 4.9t^2
g = a because this is a free fall
d = 1/2 * 9.81m/s^2 * 2.5^2
d = 30.65625m
d = 30.7m
The net force = sum of all forces acting on the body
If we take left side as -ve and right side as +ve,
then,
The net force here would be equal to,
10N + (- 3N)
= 7N.
Therefore, a net force of +7N ( + indicates it's moving towards right) is acting on the book of mass 2kg.
Answer:
26.5 minutes
Explanation:
When the airplane is flying due West from Denver to Reno, the due-East wind with speed of 80km/h would reduce the ground speed by 80 km/h.
Its Denver to Reno ground speed is 900 - 80 = 720 km/h
The time it takes to cover 1200km at this speed is 1200 / 720 = 1.67 hours
On the other hand, when it returns from Reno to Denver in the due-East direction, the due-East wind with speed of 80km/h would add to the ground speed by 80 km/h
Its Reno to Denver ground speed is 900 + 80 = 980 km/h
The time it takes to cover 1200 km at this speed is 1200 / 980 = 1.22 hours
The difference it flight time would be 1.67 - 1.22 = 0.44 hours or 26.5 minutes
