A roofer needs to get shingles onto a roof. Pulling the shingles up manually uses 1,549 N or force. The roofer decides to use a

system of pulleys. Using the pulleys, 446 N are required to lift the shingles. What is the mechanical advantage of the system of pulleys?

Answer:

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = 3.47 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Manual force = 1,549 N

Pulleys force = 446 N

Find:

Mechanical advantage of pulleys

Computation:

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = Manual force / Pulleys force

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = 1,549 / 446

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = 3.4730

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = 3.47 (Approx)

Answer:

30 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity is v_{final}=v_{initial}+at since we know that the initial velocity is 0, and the acceleration is 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} \approx 10 \frac{m}{s^2} then we also know that time is 3 seconds it follows that: v_{final}=v_{initial}+at=0+10\frac{m}{s^2}*3s=30\frac{m}{s}
