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.

Answer:

a)<em> It took 1.28 seconds to Neil Armstrong's voice to reach the Earth via radio waves. </em>

b) <em>The minimum time that will be required for a message from Mars to reach the Earth via radio waves is 192 seconds. </em>

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum is the distribution of radiation due to the different frequencies at which it radiates and its different intensitie. That radiation is formed by electromagnetic waves, which are transverse waves formed by an electric field and a magnetic field perpendicular to it.

The distribution of the radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum can also be given in wavelengths, but it is more frequent to work with it at frequencies:

  • Gamma rays
  • X-rays
  • Ultraviolet rays
  • Visible region
  • Infrared
  • Microwave
  • Radio waves.

Any radiation that belongs to electromagnetic spectrum has a speed in vacuum of 3x10^{8}m/s.  

<em>a) Find the time it took for his voice to reach the Earth via radio waves.</em>

To know the time that took for Neil Armstrong's voice to reach the Earth via radio waves, the following equation can be used:

c = \frac{d}{t}  (1)

Where v is the speed of light, d is the distance and t is the time.

Notice that t can be isolated from equation 1.

t = \frac{d}{c}  (2)

The distance from the Earth to the Moon is 3.85x10^{8} m, therefore.

t = \frac{3.85x10^{8} m}{3x10^{8}m/s}

t = 1.28s

Hence, it took 1.28 seconds to Neil Armstrong's voice to reach the Earth via radio waves.

<em>b) Determine the minimum time that will be required for a message from Mars to reach the Earth via radio waves.</em>

The distance from the Earth to the Mars at its closest approach is 5.76x10^{10}m, therefore.

t = \frac{5.76x10^{10}m}{3x10^{8}m/s}

t = 192s

Hence, the minimum time that will be required for a message from Mars to reach the Earth via radio waves is 192 seconds.

a cyclist coasting down a 5.0 ◦ incline at a constant speed of 6.0 km/h because of air resistance. If the total mass of the bicy
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

F_{net}= 85.41\ N

Explanation:

mass of the bicycle + cyclist = 50 kg

constant speed = 6 km/h

a cyclist coasting down a 5.0° incline

the downward velocity is constant, so net acceleration must be zero

the air drag must be equal to gravitational force downward along the ramp

F_a = mg sin \theta  

now for upward motion

F_{net} = mg sin \theta + air\ drag

F_{net} = mg sin \theta + mg sin \theta

F_{net} = 2 mg sin \theta

F_{net} = 2\times 50 \times 9.8 sin 5^0

F_{net}= 85.41\ N

During the deceleration of an ascending elevator, the normal force on the feet of a passenger is _____ her weight. During the de
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: Smaller than ; larger than

Explanation:

When the elevator is moving in the upward direction, then the force acting on it is negative in nature because of

N= mg +ma, (g is gravity and a is acceleration)

here ma is negative so the N= mg-ma

Hence, it feels smaller than its original weight.

When the elevator is moving downward , then the force acting will be positive in nature

N= mg+ma,

here ma will be positive so it feels larger the original weight of passenger.

Given the following specific heat capacities, which material was have the largest change in temperature if 10 grams of each subs
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Comment

You could calculate it out by assuming the same starting temperature for each substance. (You have to assume that the substances do start at the same temperature anyway).

That's like shooting 12 with 2 dice. It can be done, but aiming for a more common number is a better idea.

Same with this question.

You should just develop a rule.  The rule will look like this

The greater the heat capacity the (higher or lower) the change in temperature.

The greater the heat capacity the lower the change in temperature

That's not your question. You want to know which substance will have the greatest temperature change given their heat capacities.

Answer

lead. It has the smallest heat capacity and therefore it's temperature change will be the greatest.
