I think you forgot to give the choices along with the question. I am answering the question based on my knowledge and research. You would increase mechanical advantage by <span>making the blade longer from the cutting edge. I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your desired help.</span>

Answer: make a longer wood for the ax

Explanation: torque is the Force that acts on a moment arm, and is used to cause rotational motion.

The motion of the ax is in a rotational form

So using the formula for torque = force ×lenght

We find out that the more the length the more the torque

This increase in length will make the wood splitting easier

A sample of oxygen gas at 25.0°c has its pressure tripled while its volume is halved. What is the final temperature of the gas?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

447 K

Explanation:

25 C = 25 + 273 = 298 K

Assuming ideal gas, we can apply the ideal gas law

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

T_2 = T_1\frac{P_2}{P_1}\frac{V_2}{V_1}

Since pressure is tripled, then P_2 / P_1 = 3. Volume is halved, then V_2 / V_1 = 0.5

T_2 = 298*3*0.5 = 447 K

A 23 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 130 m/s when, due to an internal exp
babymother [125]

Answer:

a) Vx = 1088m/s

b) Vy = -162.93m/s

c) 5246745J

Explanation:

Mass of unbroken body = 23kg

Its velocity along +ve X-axis = 130m/s

Mass of first broken body, m1= 9.4kg

Its velocity along +ve X-axis = 130m/s

Nass of 2nd broken body, m2 = 6.1kg

Its velocity long-lived X - axis = -550m/s

Mass of 3rd broken body = ?

m3 = (23 - 9.4 - 6.1)kg

m3 = 7.5kg

Let velocity along the x-axis = Vx

Let the velocity along the x-axis = Vy

Applying law of conservation of momentum along x-axis

a) m1×0 + m2×(-550) + m3×(Vx) =M × 130

9.4 × 0 + 6.1× (-550) + 7.5(Vx) = 23 ×130

0 + (-5170) + 7.5Vx = 2990

2990 + 5170 = 7.5Vx

8160 = 7.5Vx

Vx = 8160/7.5

Vx = 1088m/s

b) Aplying conservation of momentum along the x-axis

(m1×130) + (m2 × 0) + (m3× Vy) = 0

(9.4 × 130) + (6.1 ×550) + 7.5Vy = 0

1222 + 0 + 7.5Vy = 0

1222 = -7.5Vy

Vy = 1222/(-7.5)

Vy = -262.93m/s

c) The energy released or change in KE is given by:

1/2[(m1v1^2) + (m2v2^2) +(m3Vx^2) ]= MV^2

Change in KE = 1/2[ 9.4× 130^2 + 6.1 × 550^2 + 7.5 × 1088^2 ] - 1/2(23 × 130^2)

Change in KE = 1/2[158860 + 1845250 + 8878080] - 1/2[388700]

Change in KE = 5441095 - 194350

Change in KE = 5246745J

Which of these is a mixture?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Air is a mixture.

Explanation:

Air is a homogeneous mixture. It is made up of gaseous substances such as nitrogen, oxygen, and smaller amounts of others.

Carbon dioxide is a pure substance, not a mixture.

Carbon is another pure substance, it cannot be separated into other substances.

Oxygen is just oxygen, it does not contain any other substance.
