How can two machines appear identical and yet not have the same actual mechanical advantage
STatiana [176]
There are many factors which contributes as to how a machine will be processing the input energy and convert it to output energy. Even with identical mechanism, these factors will have major effect on the output. Some factors are deflection, friction and wear. Some system maybe exposed to poor lubrication than the other which'll produce more friction and wear thus lower mechanical advantage.

A small steel roulette ball rolls around the inside of a 30 cm diameter roulette wheel. It is spun at 150 rpm, but is slows to 6
liraira [26]

Solution :

Given

Diameter of the roulette ball = 30 cm

The speed ball spun at the beginning = 150 rpm

The speed of the ball during a period of 5 seconds = 60 rpm

Therefore, change of speed in 5 seconds = 150 - 60

                                                                      = 90 rpm

Therefore,

90 revolutions in 1 minute

or In 1 minute the ball revolves 90 times

i.e. 1 min = 90 rev

     60 sec = 90 rev

        1 sec = 90/ 60 rec

         5 sec = $\frac{90}{60}\times 5$

                   = 75 rev

Therefore, the ball made 75 revolutions during the 5 seconds.
