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.

What are the output waveforms of the following waves, after passing through a transformer?
Ber [7]
The output waveforms after passing through the transformer actually depend on the type of transformer used. It could either be a step-up transformer (steps voltage up), or a step-down transformer (steps voltage down). Both transformers have an output voltage in a form of a sine wave.

Water flows from a large drainage pipe at a rate of 950 gal/min. What is this volume rate of flow in (a) m3/s , (b) liters/min,
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

0.05997\ m^3/s

3596.1395\ L/min

2.11647\ ft^3/s

Explanation:

1\ gal/min=\dfrac{1}{264\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=950\times \dfrac{1}{264\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=0.05997\ m^3/s

Volume rate of flow is 0.05997\ m^3/s

1\ gal/min=3.78541\ L/min\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=950\times 3.78541=3596.1395\ L/min

Volume rate of flow is 3596.1395\ L/min

1\ gal/min=\dfrac{1}{7.481\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=950\times \dfrac{1}{7.481\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=2.11647\ ft^3/s

Volume rate of flow is 2.11647\ ft^3/s

1. You released a pendulum of mass 1kg from a height of 0.05m
photoshop1234 [79]

a. The speed of the pendulum when it reaches the bottom is 0.9 m/s.

b. The height reached by the pendulum is 0.038 m.

c. When the pendulum no longer swing at all, all the kinetic energy of the pendulum has been used to overcome frictional force.

<h3>Kinetic energy of the pendulum when it reaches bottom</h3>

K.E = 100%P.E - 18%P.E

where;

  • P.E is potential; energy

K.E(bottom) = 0.82P.E

K.E(bottom) = 0.82(mgh)

K.E(bottom) = 0.82(1 x 9.8 x 0.05) = 0.402 J

<h3>Speed of the pendulum</h3>

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

2K.E = mv²

v² = (2K.E)/m

v² = (2 x 0.402)/1

v² = 0.804

v = √0.804

v = 0.9 m/s

<h3>Final potential energy </h3>

P.E = 100%K.E - 7%K.E

P.E = 93%K.E

P.E = 0.93(0.402 J)

P.E = 0.374 J

<h3>Height reached by the pendulum</h3>

P.E = mgh

h = P.E/mg

h = (0.374)/(1 x 9.8)

h = 0.038 m

<h3>when the pendulum stops</h3>

When the pendulum no longer swing at all, all the kinetic energy of the pendulum has been used to overcome frictional force.

Thus, the speed of the pendulum when it reaches the bottom is 0.9 m/s.

The height reached by the pendulum is 0.038 m.

When the pendulum no longer swing at all, all the kinetic energy of the pendulum has been used to overcome frictional force.
