A free body diagram of a brick on an inclined plane is shown below. What is the mechanical advantage of the inclined plane?

Physics
1 answer:
Norma-Jean [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

#See solution for details.

Explanation:

-Mechanical advantage is the ratio of input force to an output force.

-Let the length of the inclined plane be x and the height be y.

-The mechanical advantage is calculated as:

M_{advantage}=\frac{x}{y}

Hence, the inclined plane increases the force being exerted by \frac{x}{y} times.

If Justin races his Chevy S-10 down highway 37 north for 2,560 meters in 60 seconds, what is
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

A.) 42.7 m/s

B.) 0.33 m/s^2

C.) 90 kg

Explanation:

A.) If Justin races his Chevy S-10 down highway 37 north for 2,560 meters in 60 seconds, what is his velocity? 

Velocity = displacement/time

Velocity = 2560/60

Velocity = 42.67 m/s

B.) The Chevy S-10 started rounding at 10 meters per hour. What is the acceleration at 30 seconds on the highway?

Acceleration = velocity/time

Acceleration = 10/30

Acceleration = 0.33 m/s^2

C.) The S-10 has a force of 30 N. What is the mass of the car?

Force = mass × acceleration

30 = mass × 0.33

Mass = 30/ 0.33

Mass = 90 kg

What happens to the rock structure during each of type of change?
EastWind [94]
Previous rocks melt and collide and to form igneous rocks.
Igneous rocks disintegrate due to weather disruptions and get carried away by water, where they form sedimentary rock strata by lithification.
Igneous and sedimentary change by heat and pressure to form metamorphic rocks.
Metamorphic rocks melt and become igneous rocks.

driving down the highway , you find yourself behind a heavily loaded tomato truck. you follow close behind the truck keeping the
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The tomato won't hit the car

Explanation:

According to the statement, the car moves at constant speed behind the truck fully loaded with tomatoes, and in the same direction. When a tomato falls from the top of the truck, it should not hit the car as the tomato falls due to the force of gravity, while horizontally has the same speed and in the same direction as the truck.  So we assume that the tomato will fall to the road without touching the car.

Have a nice day!

A dancer moves around a path like the one
mash [69]

Given what we know, despite not having the figure attached to the question, we can still confirm that the magnitude for the acceleration of the dancer will be zero.

<h3>Why is the dancer's acceleration equal to zero?</h3>

This has to do with how the question clarifies the speed of the dancer. Though it does not give us an exact value, we are told that the speed is constant. This is an indicator that the acceleration is zero because with any other value for acceleration the speed <u>cannot remain</u> constant.

Therefore, given that any value for acceleration will increase or decrease the speed of the dancer, but we are told that the dancer's speed is constant throughout the trip, we can confirm that the magnitude for the acceleration of the dancer is zero.
