A machine with a 5-N input force and a 25-N output force has a mechanical advantage of?

1 answer:

8 0

So we want to know the mechanical advantage of a machine that has 5 N input force and 25 N out force. Mechanical advantage Ma is the measure of force amplification of some machine. We calculate it by taking the ratio of the output force Fo over the input force Fi. Ma=Fo/Fi=(25 N)/(5 N)=5. So Mechanical advantage for our machine is Ma=5 and the correct answer is the second one.

When a mass of 0.350 kg is attached to a vertical spring and lowered slowly, the spring stretches 12.0 cm. The mass is now displ

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

period of oscillations is 0.695 second

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 0.350 kg

spring stretches x = 12 cm = 0.12 m

to find out

period of oscillations

solution

we know here that force

force = k × x .........1

so force = mg = 0.35 (9.8) = 3.43 N

3.43 = k × 0.12

k = 28.58 N/m

so period of oscillations is

period of oscillations = 2π × $\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$ ................2

put here value

period of oscillations = 2π × $\sqrt{\frac{0.35}{28.58} }$

period of oscillations = 0.6953

so period of oscillations is 0.695 second

A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s. Approximately how much time does it take the ball to travel from the release loc

zvonat [6]

I'm going to assume that this gripping drama takes place on planet Earth, where the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s². The solutions would be completely different if the same scenario were to play out in other places.

A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s. Gravity decreases its upward speed (increases its downward speed) by 9.8 m/s every second.

So, the ball reaches its highest point after (40 m/s)/(9.8 m/s²) = <em>4.08 seconds</em>. At that point, it runs out of upward gas, and begins falling.

Just like so many other aspects of life, the downward fall is an exact "mirror image" of the upward trip. After another 4.08 seconds, the ball has returned to the height of the hand which flung it. In total, the ball is in the air for <em>8.16 seconds</em> up and down.

The stopwatch will be the most useful in determining the kinetic energy of a 50 g battery- powered car traveling a distance of 10 m.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is the energy of a body possessed due to motion.

This means that for an object to possess kinetic energy, it must be in motion.

The kinetic energy is measured in Joules, which is a product of the mass of the substance and the time taken to travel a distance.

A stopwatch is an instrument used to measure time as one of the components of kinetic energy.

Therefore, the stopwatch will be the most useful in determining the kinetic energy of a 50 g battery- powered car traveling a distance of 10 m.

How much heat is needed to change the temperature of 3 grams of gold (c = 0.129 ) from 21°C to 363°C? The answer is expressed to

Temka [501]

Q= mcΔT

Where Q is heat or energy

M is mass, c is heat capacitance and t is temperature

You have to convert Celsius into kelvin in order to use this formula I believe

Celsius + 273 = Kelvin

21 + 273 = 294K

363 + 273 = 636K

Now...

Q= (0.003)(0.129)(636-294)

Q= 0.132 J if you are using kilograms, in terms of grams which seems more appropriate the answer would be 132J of energy.
