Mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the output force over the input force or M=Fo/Fi. Since M=1, Fi=Fo, or the input force is equal to the output force. This means that to raise the refrigerator that weighs 900 N, we need the same input force of 900 N, or Fo=Fi=900 N.
There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force".
If all of the forces acting on an object all add up to zero, then we say that
<span>the group </span>of forces is balanced. When that happens, the group of forces
has the same effect on the object as if there were no forces on it at all.
An example:
Two people with exactly equal strength are having a tug-of-war. They pull
with equal force in opposite directions. Each person is sweating and straining,
grunting and groaning, and exerting tremendous force. But their forces add up
to zero, and the rope goes nowhere. The <u>group</u> of forces on the rope is balanced.
On the other hand, if one of the offensive linemen is pulling on one end of
the rope, and one of the cheerleaders is pulling on the other end, then their
forces don't add up to zero, because even though they're opposite, they're
not equal. The <u>group</u> of forces is <u>unbalanced</u>, and the rope moves.
A group of forces is either balanced or unbalanced. A single force isn't.
Answer:
Due to equal pressure in all the direction at a particular level in a fluid medium (Pascal's Law)
Explanation:
We are not crushed by the weight of the atmosphere because atmosphere is a fluid and we are immersed into it. So, according to the Pascal's law the the pressure a each point in a horizontal level is equal in all the direction irrespective of the orientation of a body.
Variation of pressure in term of the height of a fluid medium is given as:

density of fluid
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height of the free surface of the fluid from the immersed object.
- And atmosphere has very less variation of pressure with change in height as it is a rare medium fluid and so for a human height there is very negligible variation of pressure at the heat of a human with respect to his toe.
Answer:
specific purpose statement
Explanation:
It is a specific purpose statement made for a persuasive speech on the question of fact.
A specific purpose statement helps to build on the general purpose (that is to inform) and to make it more specific to the audience. So if the first speech is an informative speech, our general purpose is to inform our audience about a very specific realm of knowledge.
A specific purpose statement is given to audience to persuade on specific information.
