A man uses a single movable pulley to lift a heavy load with a frictionless rope.

Which of the following pulley systems have/has a greater mechanical advantage than the one shown above?

W.

X.

Y.

Z.

Pulleys at the top of the rope are fixed.

A.

Z only

B.

W and Y

C.

W only

D.

W and X

Answer-

W only

Explanation-

Fixed pulleys do not change the mechanical advantage of a system. Movable pulleys that increase the number of sections of rope that bear the weight of the load increase the mechanical advantage of the system. The top image has one movable pulley. Only system W has more than one movable pulley—it has two.

A person standing a certain distance from four identical loudspeakers is hearing a sound level intensity of 125 dB. What sound l

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

$\mathbf{\beta = 123.75 \ dB}$

Explanation:

From the question, using the expression:

$125 \ dB = 10 \ log (\dfrac{I}{I_o})$

where;

$I_o = 10^{-12} \ W/m^2$

$I = 10^{12.5} \times 10^{-12} \ W/m^2$

$I = 3.162 \ W/m^2$

This is a combined intensity of 4 speakers.

Thus, the intensity of 3 speakers = $\dfrac{3.162\times 3}{4}$

= 2.372 W/m²

Thus;

$\beta = 10 \ log ( \dfrac{2.372}{10^{-12}} ) \ W/m^2$

$\mathbf{\beta = 123.75 \ dB}$

Describe the octet rule in terms of noble-gas configurations and potential energy

Wittaler [7]

Elements will gain or lose electrons to form a noble gas configuration. Atoms that meet the octet rule are stable because their valence electrons have a relatively low potential energy.

How fast must an object move before its length appears to be contracted to one-fourth its proper length? (Give your answer in te

Tresset [83]

Answer:

<em>0.97c</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

From the relativistic equation for length contraction, we have

$l$ = $l_{0}\sqrt{1 - \beta }$

where

$l$ is the final length of the object

$l_{0}$ is the original length of the object before contraction

β = $v^{2} /c^2$

where v is the speed of the object

c is the speed of light in free space = 3 x 10^8 m/s

The equation can be re-written as

$l$ / $l_{0}$ = $\sqrt{1 - \beta }$

For the length to contract to one-fourth of the proper length, then

$l$ / $l_{0}$ = 1/4

substituting into the equation, we'll have

1/4 = $\sqrt{1 - \beta }$

substituting for β, we'll have

1/4 = $\sqrt{1 - v^2/c^2 }$

squaring both side of the equation, we'll have

1/16 = 1 - $v^2/c^2$

$v^2/c^2$ = 1 - 1/16

$v^2/c^2$ = 15/16

square root both sides of the equation, we have

v/c = 0.968

v = <em>0.97c</em>

Koala bears can eat only certain kinds of Australian eucalyptus leaves. Koalas are considered _____.

murzikaleks [220]

They are marsupials that are considered "specialist eaters" since they only eat a certain type of leaf. While generalist feeders aren't as picky as the koala bears. I hope this helps!
