The principle of work states that the ratio of work output to work input is always

Physics

snow_lady [41]3 years ago

Answer:

work output is always less than work input - the ratio is less than 1.

Explanation:

This principle comes from the fact that a machine or system cannot produce more work than is supplied to it, because this would violate the energy conservation law (work is a type of mechanical energy).

In theoretical machines called "ideal machines" the input work is the same as the output work, but these machines are only theoretical because in real applications there is always some type of energy loss, either in heat produced by a machine or processes for its operation, for this reason the output work is always less than the input work.

Regarding the ratio work output to work input:

\frac{WO}{WI} < 1

because work input WI is always greater than work output WO.

A scaffold of mass 57 kg and length 6.5 m is supported in a horizontal position by a vertical cable at each end. A window washer
Mrac [35]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     m_{1} = 57 kg,        m_{2} = 79 kg

      l_{1} = 6.5 m,         l_{2} = (6.5 - 1.9) m = 4.6 m

(a)  The sum of torque ends about far end is as follows.

    m_{1}g \frac{l_{1}}{2} + m_{2}g \times l_{2} - T \times l_{1} = 0

     57 \times 9.81 \times \frac{6.5}{2} + 79 \times 9.81 \times (6.5 - 1.9) - T \times 6.5 = 0

                     T = 828 N

Therefore, 828 N is the tension in the cable closer to the painter.

(b)  Now, we will calculate the sum about close ends as follows.

m_{1}g \frac{l_{1}}{2} + m_{2}g \times (1.9) - T \times l_{1}    

  57 \times 9.81 \times \frac{6.5}{2} + 79 \times 9.81 \times (1.9) - T \times 6.5 = 0

                            T= 506 N

Therefore, 506 N is the tension in the cable further from the painter.

Centrifugal force increases with
belka [17]

Centrifugal force is not a real force. 

When you move around a curve, there IS a real force pulling you
around the curve.  Since your body wants to go straight, it feels as if
there's a force trying to pull you away from the curve.  But there isn't.

That feeling of a force is greater when your speed around the curve
is greater, or when the curve is tighter, i.e. smaller radius.
