Answer:
Mechanical advantage = 4
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance of effort, de = 8m
Distance of ramp, dr = 2m
To find the mechanical advantage;
Mechanical advantage = de/dr
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Mechanical advantage = 8/2
Mechanical advantage = 4
Answer:
v = 2 v₁ v₂ / (v₁ + v₂)
Explanation:
The body travels the first half of the distance with velocity v₁. The time it takes is:
t₁ = (d/2) / v₁
t₁ = d / (2v₁)
Similarly, the body travels the second half with velocity v₂, so the time is:
t₂ = (d/2) / v₂
t₂ = d / (2v₂)
The average velocity is the total displacement over total time:
v = d / t
v = d / (t₁ + t₂)
v = d / (d / (2v₁) + d / (2v₂))
v = d / (d/2 (1/v₁ + 1/v₂))
v = 2 / (1/v₁ + 1/v₂)
v = 2 / ((v₁ + v₂) / (v₁ v₂))
v = 2 v₁ v₂ / (v₁ + v₂)
Correct answer is A
