Describe each class of lever and explain to characteristics of each

Nataly [62]

-- Class I lever

The fulcrum is between the effort and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage can be anything, more or less than 1 .

Example: a see-saw

-- Class II lever

The load is between the fulcrum and the effort.

The Mechanical Advantage is always greater than 1 .

Example: a nut-cracker, a garlic press

-- Class III lever

The effort is between the fulcrum and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage is always less than 1 .

I can't think of an example right now.

Help quick physics area question

zlopas [31]

Answer: The area of brick in contact with the floor is 1539 $cm^{3}$ .

Explanation:

Given: Length = 19 cm

Width = 9 cm

Height = 9 cm

As the brick is rectangular in shape. Hence, its area will be calculated as follows.

$Area = length \times width \times height$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$Area = length \times width \times height\\= 19 cm \times 9 cm \times 9 cm\\= 1539 cm^{3}$

Thus, we can conclude that area of brick in contact with the floor is 1539 $cm^{3}$ .

A bat can detect small objects such as an insect whose size is approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound the bat makes.

zaharov [31]

Given that,

Frequency emitted by the bat, f = 47.6 kHz

The speed off sound in air, v = 413 m/s

We need to find the wavelength detected by the bat. The speed of a wave is given by formula as follows :

$v=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{413}{47.6\times 10^3}\\\\\lambda=0.00867\ m$

$\lambda=8.67\ mm$

So, the bat can detect small objects such as an insect whose size is approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound the bat makes i.e. 8.67 mm.
