What are similarities and differences of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd class levers?

1 answer:

7 0

Similarities:
-- All three classes have a fulcrum (pivot).
-- All three classes have a point where the effort force is applied.
-- All three classes have a point where the load or resistance force is applied.
-- If you can find a place to stand and a lever that's long enough,
then you can move the Earth with a 1st or 2nd Class lever.

Differences:
-- The mechanical advantage of a 1st Class lever
can be greater than 1, equal to 1, or less than 1.
-- The mechanical advantage of a 2nd Class lever is always more than 1 .
-- The mechanical advantage of a 3rd Class lever is always less than 1 .

a load of 800 newton is lifted by an effort of 200 Newton. if the load is placed at a distance of 10 cm from the fulcrum. what w

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

40 cm

Explanation:

We are given that

Load=800 N

Effort=200 N

Load distance=10 cm

We have to find the effort distance.

We know that

$load\times load\;distance=Effort\times effort\;distance$

Using the formula

$800\times 10=200\times effort\;distance$

Effort distance= $\frac{800\times 10}{200}$

Effort distance= $\frac{8000}{200}$

Effort distance=40 cm

Hence, the effort distance will be 40 cm.

An electric field of intensity 3.80 kN/C is applied along the x-axis. Calculate the electric flux through a rectangular plane 0.

lakkis [162]

Answer: 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

Explanation: The electric flux, electric field intensity and area are related by the formulae below.

Φ= EAcosθ,

Where Φ= electric flux (Nm²c^-1)

E =electric field intensity (N/m²)

A = Area (m²)

θ= this is angle between the planar area and the magnetic flux

For our question E=3.80KN/c= 3800 N/c

A= 0.700 x 0.350= 0.245m²

θ= 0° ( this is because the electric field was applied along the x axis, thus the electric flux will be parallel to the area).

Hence Φ= 3800 x 0.245 x cos(0)

= 3800 x 0.245 x 1 (value of cos 0° =1)

= 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

Thus the electric field is 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

The top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it.

Lesechka [4]

The top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it. Because the contact between the bolt and the pliers working surface is less.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage ?</h3>

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system, it is used to obtained efficiency of the given mechanical machine.

The efficiency to open the stubborn bolt depends upon the contact between the working surface of the pliers and the bolt.

The contact between the bolt and the top pair of pliers working surface is less. Its mechanical advantage is less.

Hence, the top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it.

Assume that the amplifiers on the stage operate at a combined power of 5,000 Watts, and that 80% of this is converted to sound.

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

0.04

Explanation:

Fraction of power converted to sound = 80% = 0.08

Fraction incident upon each eardrum onstage = 0.08/2 = 0.04
