In a real system of levers, wheels, or pulleys, the AMA is less than the IMA because of friction. 
AMA (Actual mechanical advantage) is found by dividing output force by effort force. The actual mechanical advantage will always be less than the ideal mechanical advantage. The ideal mechanical advantage assumes perfect efficiency which doesn't account for friction, while actual mechanical advantage does. Therefore; the IMA is always greater than the actual mechanical advantage because all machines must overcome friction.

natima [27]

As per Newton's III law we can say that

Force applied by object 1 on object 2 is always equal in magnitude and opposite in direction of the force that object 2 apply on object 1.

So we can say it as

F_{12} = -F_{21}

now here above question is based upon the same

if a bag of vegetables applied a force F = 22.5 N of the surface stand the the same surface will apply same magnitude of force in opposite direction on the vegetables bag

So our answer will be F = 22.5 N (upwards).

Steve and Jose drove Jose's car to the beach during Spring Break. The 495 kilometer drive took them 8 hours and 30 minutes. What
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

58.24 Km/h.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance (d) = 495 Km

Time (t) = 8 h 30 mins

Speed (S) =?

Next, we shall express 8 hours 30 mins to hours.

We'll begin by convert 30 mins to hour.

60 mins = 1 h

Therefore,

30 mins = 30 mins × 1 h/ 60 mins

30 mins = 0.5 hour.

Thus,

8 h 30 min = 8 + 0.5 = 8.5 hours

Speed is define as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed = Distance /time

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed as shown below:

Distance (d) = 495 Km

Time (t) = 8.5 hour

Speed (S) =?

Speed = Distance /time

Speed = 495 Km / 8.5 hour

Speed = 58.24 Km/h

Thus, the speed is 58.24 Km/h.
