Why can't speed ratio ever equal mechanical advantage?

Physics
1 answer:
OLga [1]3 years ago
6 0
Efficiency of a simple machine is the ratio of mechanical advantage and speed ratio.

If mechanical advantage = speed ratio then efficiency = 1
Which is impossible for a practical machine due to presence of frictional force which wastes some energy and thus lowers the output

You have been called in by your neighborhood safety council to advise them about installing a barrier on a dangerous curve that
Alborosie

Answer: The softer barrier is the better option

Explanation:

1) When is a car is moving at a certain speed, it has a certain amount of momentum (p=mv). A collision against a barrier would cause its momentum to decrease to 0. A change in momentum is Impulse

2) The formula for Impulse: J = f * Δt

J is Impulse

f is the force applied during the time Δt

A tough barrier would produce a smaller Δt, which means more force is applied on the car. (J is always constant)

A softer barrier would apply less force on the car, which means Δt is large.

Answer: The softer barrier is the better option

I'm trying to find the potential energy of a planet using formula G M(sun) x m(planet) / r. I have given G - newton's graviation
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

-5.39\times10^{33} J

Explanation:

Potential energy =

-\frac{GMm}{r}\\=-\frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.99\times10^{30}\times5.97\times10^{24}}{147/1\times10^{9}}\\=-5.39\times10^{33} J

A current of 2.0A flows through a light bulb. What is the amount of charge flowing through the light bulb in 40 seconds?
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Quantity of charge = 80 Coulombs

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Current = 2 A

Time = 40 seconds

To find the amount of charge flowing through the light bulb;

Mathematically, the quantity of charge passing through a conductor is given by the formula;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Quantity of charge = 2 * 40

Quantity of charge = 80 Coulombs
