1 answer:

5 0

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.

In a simple RC circuit, at t=0 the switch is closed with the capacitor uncharged. If C=30µF, =50V and R=10k, what is the poten

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Voltage across the capacitor is 30 V and rate of energy across the capacitor is 0.06 W

Explanation:

As we know that the current in the circuit at given instant of time is

i = 2.0 mA

R = 10 k ohm

now we know by ohm's law

$V = iR$

$V = (2 mA)(10 kohm)$

$V = 20 volts$

so voltage across the capacitor + voltage across resistor = V

$V_c + 20 = 50$

$V_c = 30 V$

Now we know that

$U = \frac{q^2}{2C}$

here rate of change in energy of the capacitor is given as

$\frac{dU}{dt} = \frac{q}{C} \frac{dq}{dt}$

$\frac{dU}{dt} = (30)(2 mA)$

$\frac{dU}{dt} = 0.06 W$

A train travels 200km/hr. how much distance will the train be from the station in 2.5 hours?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

500km

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed = 200km/hr

Time taken = 2.5hrs

Unknown:

Distance = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the speed, time and distance equation.

Therefore;

Distance = Speed x time

So;

Distance = 200 x 2.5 = 500km

A 1000 kg weather rocket is launched straight up. The rocket motor provides a constant acceleration for 16 s, then the motor sto

Fed [463]

Answer:

a) a = 34.375 m / s², b) v_f = 550 m / s

Explanation:

This problem is the launch of projectiles, they tell us to ignore the effect of the friction force.

a) Let's start with the final part of the movement, which is carried out from t= 16 s with constant speed

v_f = $\frac{x-x_1}{t}$

we substitute the values

v_f = $\frac{ 6600 -x_1}{4}$

The initial part of the movement is carried out with acceleration

v_f = v₀ + a t

x₁ = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ a t²

the rocket starts from rest v₀ = 0 with an initial height x₀ = 0

x₁ = ½ a t²

v_f = a t

we substitute the values

x₁ = 1/2 a 16²

x₁ = 128 a

v_f = 16 a

let's write our system of equations

v_f = $\frac{6600 - x_1}{4}$

x₁ = 128 a

v_f = 16 a

we substitute in the first equation

16 a = $\frac{6600 -128 a}{4}$

16 4 a = 6600 - 128 a

a (64 + 128) = 6600

a = 6600/192

a = 34.375 m / s²

b) let's find the time to reach this height

x = ½ to t²

t² = 2y / a

t² = 2 5100 / 34.375

t² = 296.72

t = 17.2 s

We can see that for this time the acceleration is zero, so the rocket is in the constant velocity part

v_f = 16 a

v_f = 16 34.375

v_f = 550 m / s
