Adam uses a fixed pulley, such as the one shown below, to lift an object. Adam applies an input force to the pulley as he pulls

down to lift the object. As he does this, Adam wonders about how the pulley is helping him. How is the pulley helping Adam lift the object?

When Adam applies a ‘pull’ force on the pulley, there is an output force that the pulley lets out, directly pulling the object with it. We cannot always pull up objects with our bear hands, no matter how much force we apply. Which is why pulleys allow us to apply the force and pulleys do the work of pulling the objects for us, since work and force come hand in hand.

A car is going south on I-69 at 33 m/s (74 mph). The car has good brakes so its maximum braking acceleration is – 8.5 m/s^2 . Tr
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

1.69515 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-33^2}{2\times -8.5}\\\Rightarrow s=64.06\ m

The distance between the traffic and the car after braking is 120-64.06 = 55.94 m

Time = Distance / Speed

\text{Time}=\frac{55.94}{33}\\\Rightarrow \text{Time}=1.69515\ seconds

The reaction time cannot be more than 1.69515 seconds

7. Imagine you are pushing a 15 kg cart full of 25 kg of bottled water up a 10o ramp. If the coefficient of friction is 0.02, wh
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The frictional force needed to overcome the cart is 4.83N

Explanation:

The frictional force can be obtained using the following formula:

F= \mu R

where \mu is the coefficient of friction = 0.02

R = Normal reaction of the load = mgcos\theta = 25 \times 9.81 \times cos 10 = 241.52N

Now that we have the necessary parameters that we can place into the equation, we can now go ahead and make our substitutions, to get the value of F.

F=0.02 \times 241.52N

F = 4.83 N

Hence, the frictional force needed to overcome the cart is 4.83N

How do you work out the potential diffrance
timurjin [86]

Answer:

The potential difference is the drop in voltage that occurs across a resistor as current flows through it in a circuit, potential difference or voltage(V) = current (I) *resistance (R), or to abbrevate V = I*R. In this case, I = 5amps and R = 10 ohms, so V = 5 * 10 = 50volts

Deanna stirred a teaspoon of sugar into a glass of warm water. The sugar completely dissolved in the water. Select 3 statements
larisa [96]

Answer:

B, C, F

Explanation:

B: Sugar can be separated from the water by evaporating the water. This will leave large chunks of sugar.

C: Sugar gets spread out among the water.

F: Sugar water is a homogeneous <u>mixture. </u>Can't see the individual components because of the dissolving.

Hoped this helped! :)

A certain field line diagram illustrates the electric field due to three particles that carry charges 5.0 μC, -3.0 μC, and -2.0
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

Number of lines emanate from + 5 micro coulomb is 15 .

They terminates at negative charges that means at - 3 micro coulomb and - 2 micro Coulomb.

the electric field lines terminates at - 3 micro Coulomb and - 2 micro Coulomb is in the ratio of 3 : 2.

So the lines terminating at - 3 micro coulomb

                                    = \frac{3}{5}\times 15 = 9

So the lines terminating at - 2 micro coulomb

                                    = \frac{2}{5}\times 15 = 6

So, the number of filed lines terminates at - 2 micro Coulomb are 6.
