Answer:

F= 25/2 = 12.5N

Explanation:

When you use a compound pulley the force required depends on the mechanical advantage of the compound pulley. This is known as rate of loss of distance or the ratio of the force to the load.

M.A = Effort distance /Load distance. OR M.A = Load/Effort

Answer:

Mass of the pull is 77 kg

Explanation:

Here we have for

Since  the rope moves along with pulley, we have

For the first block we have

T₁ - m₁g = -m₁a = -m₁g/4

T₁ =  3/4(m₁g) = 323.4 N

Similarly, as the acceleration of the second block is the same as the first block but in opposite direction, we have

T₂ - m₂g = m₂a = m₂g/4

T₂ =  5/4(m₂g) = 134.75 N

T₂r - T₁r = I·∝ = 0.5·M·r²(-α/r)

∴ M = -\frac{2}{a} (T_2-T_1)

M = -\frac{2}{2.45} (134.75-323.4) = 77 \, kg

Mass of the pull = 77 kg.

What state of matter does sound travel the fastest?
antoniya [11.8K]

Sound travels fastest through matter in the <em>solid state</em>.

I know this from having answered a huge number of Brainly questions that required me to look up things like this:

-- Speed of sound in air . . . about 340 m/s

-- Speed of sound in sea-water . . . about 1,500 m/s

-- Speed of sound in steel . . . about 5,960 m/s

The light bulb transfers electrical energy into light. What is one type of energy that is also generated that is NOT a desired e
zimovet [89]

The old style (incandescent) light bulb converts more energy
into heat than it does into light.  If you're using it mainly as a
source of light, then it's a bummer, and its efficiency is very low. 
BUT ... if you're using an incandescent light bulb as a heater, then
its efficiency is much better.  It all depends on your point of view.
