A ramp 20 m long and 4 m high is used to lift a heavy box. A pulley system with 4 rope sections supporting the load is used to l

ift an identical box to a height of 4 m. If friction is ignored, the ramp requires a _____ to lift the load.

The ramp has dimensions of 20 m length and 4 m height. The angle made by the ramp on the horizontal ground is
θ = sin⁻¹ (4/20)
After getting the angle, the force required to move the box can then be solved given that the mass of the box is known and also the coefficient of friction of the ramp

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Should be moving away

Explanation:

Red is a longer wavelength therefore further away. Wavelength is stretched out more and on the red end. I hope this is right. I decided to research and answer since you didn’t have other answers. Are you taking this on edg? I hope I helped!

kakasveta [241]

The answer is

-Small f and large D.

The explanation:

-when The car jack is an example of a machine, which is defined as anything that a person can use to make the exertion of force easier.

-So with the small force he exerts on the jack, the distance that the car is lifted up increases .

and People needs help of machines to increase their force.  People cannot lift a car without a machine. Using the leverage  or hydraulic principles the machines increase your force.

If you use a large leverage you execute a large movement with little force and as result the other side will move small distances with a greater force.

Like the moon's orbit, Earth's orbit is not a perfect circle, but an oval How do you think this might affect Earth's tides?
ExtremeBDS [4]
During the parts in the orbit where the moon is farthest away from the earth the tides will be low. Whereas during the parts where the moon is closer to the earth the tides will be higher.

Good Luck!

iren [92.7K]

Answer and Explanation:

KUIPER BELT : The Kuiper belt is on the name of the scientist kuiper .It is the largest structure of the solar system its inner edge is about 30 AU from the Sun. The thickness of the kuiper belt is about 10 AU. It contains comets and other icy bodies

OORT CLOUD : The name of this cloud is one the name of a scientist Jhon oort. It is a theoretical cloud and mainly consist icy bodies it far away from the Sun. Its structure is spherical in nature and mostly contain ice water amonia methane

The smallness of the critical angle θc for diamond means that light is easily "trapped" within a diamond and eventually emerges
hoa [83]

Answer:

26.6°

Explanation:

refractive index of diamond, n = 2.23

When a ray of light passes from denser medium to the rarer medium and refracts at an angle of 90 degree from the normal of the surface, such angle of incidence in the denser medium is called the critical angle.

By the Snell's law

\frac{Sini}{Sin r }= n

For critical angle, angle of incidence is critical angle, i = θc and angle of refraction, r = 90

So,

Sin θc / Sin 90 = 1 / 2.23

Sin θc = 0.448

θc = 26.6°

Thus, the critical angle is 26.6°.
