Answer:

50 N

Explanation:

Efficiency of a machine can't be more than 1, so I assume you mean 40%.  (Remember, efficiency and mechanical advantage are not the same).

Efficiency is the ratio of work out of a system to the work in to the system.

e = Wout / Win

Work is force times distance, so:

e = (Fout × Dout) / (Fin × Din)

Rearranging:

Fin = (Fout × Dout) / (e × Din)

Fin = (Fout / e) × (Dout / Din)

Fin = (Fout / e) / (Din / Dout)

We know that e = 0.40, and Fout = 120 N.  Since there are 6 pulleys, we also know that Din/Dout = 6.

F = (120 N / 0.4) / 6

F = 50 N

____________ was a series of human spaceflight missions undertaken by the u.S. Devoted to the goal of landing a man on the moon
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The Apollo program or Project Apollo was a series of human spaceflight missions undertaken by the u.S. Devoted to the goal of landing a man on the moon and returning him to earth safely.

Explanation:

Project Apollo or Apollo program was the spaceflight program carried out by the United States of America during the years 1961-1972 using the Apollo spacecraft. This project's main goal was to land a man on the Moon and to safely return him to Earth. This goal was accomplished with the Apollo 11 moon-landing mission on July 20, 1969, when an Apollo Lunar Module (LM) landed on the Moon's surface and the astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the lunar surface while Michael Collins stayed in the command and service module (CSM) in the lunar orbit. On July 24, all three astronauts landed safely on Earth.

This project included three unmanned test flights (Apollo 4 through Apollo 6) and eleven manned flights (Apollo 7 through Apollo 17). All these spaceflight missions were carried out by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and all were launched from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida.
