10. To know the mechanical advantage, we just need to find the ratio of the force produced by the machine (also known as the weight of the object it's trying to move) to the force applied to the machine.

Simply put, we need to use the following formula:
MechAdvantage= \frac{ Weight_{object}}{ Force_{applied} }
MechAdvantage= \frac{ 95}{ 15} =6.33

ANSWER: The mechanical advantage of the lever is 6.33

11. ANSWER: The wheel-and-axle principle. The wheel and axle is a kind of simple machine that has been used to greatly increase the mechanical advantage in complex machines. Its principle can also be applied to ramps, where the work is made easier as compared to lifting objects since a ramp would require you to exert less force.

Recalling the formula for the mechanical advantage in the previous item, a lesser force applied to the machine would mean that there would be a greater mechanical advantage.

What is the bouncing of light when it changes media
matrenka [14]

When light passes from one medium to another, part of it continues on
into the new medium, while the rest of it bounces away from the boundary,
back into the first medium.

The part of the light that continues on into the new medium is <em>transmitted</em>
light.  Its forward progress at any point in its journey is <em>transmission</em>. 

Its direction usually changes as it crosses the boundary.  The bending is <em>
refraction</em>
.

The part of the light that bounces away from the boundary and heads back
into the first medium is <em>reflected</em> light.  The process of bouncing is <em>reflection</em>.

Why is it difficult to convert miles to yards
shepuryov [24]

There's really no "why", because it's not difficult at all.
 
Simply multiply the number of miles by 1,760, and bada boom,
there you have the same distance described in yards.

On a hike, you travel 2800 m in 2 h. What is your average speed?
Marina86 [1]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Firstly, to find speed you need to remember the speed formula:

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

You can do it by doing 2800 ÷ 2 but that gives m/h (metres per hour)

So to convert hours into seconds, you multiply 2 by 7200 (amount of second in 2 hours:

2 * 7200 = 14400 seconds

Now we can do distance ÷ time by plugging the values in:

2800 ÷ 14400 = \frac{7}{36} ≈0.194

<h3>So the average speed is 0.194m/s (metres per second) </h3><h3 /><h2>Hope this helps!</h2>
