You use a pulley system to lift a car engine. You apply a force of 120n and the pulley pulls on the engine with a force of 1050n

. What is the mechanical advantage of the pulley?

Given,

Effort force = 120 N

Load force= 1050 N

Mechanical advantage of a pulley is given by the ratio of load force to the effort force.

M.A=\frac{Load force}{Effort force}

=\frac{1050}{120}

=8.75

Therefore, the mechanical advantage of the given pulley is 8.75.

Electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of 525 nm appears as green light to the human eye. Calculate the frequency of this l
12345 [234]

Answer:

5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................. Equation 1

Where v = speed of the electromagnetic radiation, λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation, f = frequency

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: λ = 525 nm = 5.25×10⁻⁷ m,

Constant: Speed of electromagnetic wave (v) = 3.0×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = (3.0×10⁸)/(5.25×10⁻⁷)

f = 5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

Hence the frequency of light is 5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

What is efficiency of a machine?
Flura [38]
Mechanical efficiency is a measure of how well the machine converts the input work or energy into some useful output. It is calculated by dividing the output work by the input work. The ideal machine has mechanical efficiency equal to unity, while the real machine has mechanical efficiency less than unity

The formation of lactic acid in human muscle most closely associated with
zavuch27 [327]
The formation of lactic acid in human muscles is closely associated with intense exertion or activity, during which aerobic respiration that uses oxygen to produce energy cannot be able to match the demand of energy by the muscles. The muscles therefore resort to anaerobic respiration for energy where pyruvate becomes a makeshift hydrogen acceptor rather than oxygen as happens in aerobic respiration. Pyruvate accepts a hydrogen from NADH and becomes reduced to lactate or lactic acid while NADH is oxidized to NAD which is crucial in the formation of energy that is then stored in the form of ATP which is used to re-fuel the muscles to keep them going.

Objects can be charged by the transfer of electrons.<br> True<br> False
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Whenever electrons are transferred between objects, neutral matter becomes charged. For example, when atoms lose or gain electrons they become charged particles called ions. Three ways electrons can be transferred are conduction, friction, and polarization. In each case, the total charge remains the same.

I tried, hope this helps :)

Identical point charges (+50 x 10 power -6C) are placed at the corners of a square with sides of 2.0-m length. How much external
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

636.4 J

Explanation:

The potential energy between one of the charges at the corner of the square and the fifth identical charge is U = kq²/r where q = charge = +50 × 10⁻⁶ C  and r = distance from center of square. = √2 m (since the midpoint of the sides = 1 m, so the distance from the charge at the corner to the center is thus √(1² + 1²) = √2)

Since we have four charges, the additional potential energy to move the charge to the centre of the square is U' = 4U = 4kq²/r

U' = 4kq²/r

= 4 × 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² (+50 × 10⁻⁶ C)²/√2 m

= 900 Nm²/√2 m

= 636.4 J
