You must raise the weight to a height of 10 meters. You cannot do it! Thinking back to what you have learned in science class, y

ou set up the pulley you see here. How does using this pulley reduce the force needed to lift the weight 10 meters?

A single pulley has no advantage in reducing force. A single pulley only helps by changing direction of effort, pulling something from up to down feels easier then vice versa due to our muscles arrangement. However, the force needed is the same.
Meanwhile multiple pullies divide the tension. The lower pulley itself reduces the force into half so as to you feel a part of the tension while rest is suspended by the ceiling in the case in the diagram below.

Answer:

C.The amount of force stays the same; the direction changes. You pull down to move something up.

The weight of a person is 500N and his foot imprint area is 0.5m^2.Calculate the total pressure exerted by person when he stands
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Pressure on both feet will be 500N/m^2  

Explanation:

Weight of the person F = 500 N

Area of foot print A=0.5m^2

Area of both the foot A=2\times 0.5=1m^2

We have to find pressure on both the feet

Pressure is equal to ratio of force and area

So pressure P=\frac{F}{A}

P=\frac{500}{1}=500N/m^2

So the pressure on both feet will be 500N/m^2 when person stands on both feet.

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Comparison Microscope

Explanation:

The Comparison Microscope allows for comparison between two objects or samples by placing them side by side.

It is primarily used in criminology for ballistics which makes it ideal to find out if bullets, shells, or cartridge cases were fired from a specific weapon.

How do galaxies vary?
givi [52]

The universe has trillions of galaxies and counting. Astronomers give names to each galaxy base on its shape (e.i, Sombrero galaxy, Milkyway Galazy, ect,.).

Also, the size of the galaxy is taken into account and their color.

A spacecraft of mass 1500 kg orbits the earth at an altitude of approximately 450 km above the surface of the earth. Assuming a
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

1.28 x 10^4 N

Explanation:

m = 1500 kg, h = 450 km, radius of earth, R = 6400 km

Let the acceleration due to gravity at this height is g'

g' / g = {R / (R + h)}^2

g' / g = {6400 /  (6850)}^2

g' = 8.55 m/s^2

The force between the spacecraft and teh earth is teh weight of teh spacecraft

W = m x g' = 1500 x 8.55 = 1.28 x 10^4 N
