Where is there potential energy throughout the loading, cocking, and releasing if the trebuchet?

Physics
1 answer:
pshichka [43]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

adapted from NOVA, a team of historians, engineers, and trade experts recreate a medieval throwing machine called a trebuchet. To launch a projectile, a trebuchet utilizes the transfer of gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy. A massive counterweight at one end of a lever falls because of gravity, causing the other end of the lever to rise and release a projectile from a sling. As part of their design process, the engineers use models to help evaluate how well their designs will work.

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.

If the voltage across a circuit of constant resistance is doubled, the power dissipated by that circuit will
densk [106]

Answer:

The voltage will quadruple

Explanation:

The power dissipated in a circuit is given by

P=\frac{V^2}{R}

where

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

In this problem, the voltage across the circuit is doubled:

V' = 2V

So the new power dissipated is

P'=\frac{V'^2}{R}=\frac{(2V)^2}{R}=4\frac{V^2}{R}=4 P

so, the power dissipated will quadruple.

What is the speed of a car that traveled 500 meter in 30 seconds?
GenaCL600 [577]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

To find speed, you need to remember the formula:

Speed = distance ÷ time

So plug the given values in:

500 ÷ 30 = 16.66

<h3>So the speed is 16.66m/s (metres per second)</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>
