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

A 65 Kg skier starts at rest at the top of a 150 m long hill that has an incline of 28 degrees. How fast will she be going at th
yan [13]

Answer:

34 m/s

Explanation:

Potential energy at top = kinetic energy at bottom + work done by friction

PE = KE + W

mgh = ½ mv² + Fd

mg (d sin θ) = ½ mv² + Fd

Solving for v:

½ mv² = mg (d sin θ) − Fd

mv² = 2mg (d sin θ) − 2Fd

v² = 2g (d sin θ) − 2Fd/m

v = √(2g (d sin θ) − 2Fd/m)

Given g = 9.8 m/s², d = 150 m, θ = 28°, F = 50 N, and m = 65 kg:

v = √(2 (9.8 m/s²) (150 m sin 28°) − 2 (50 N) (150 m) / (65 kg))

v = 33.9 m/s

Rounded to two significant figures, her velocity at the bottom of the hill is 34 m/s.
