Mechanical advantage of a first class Lever can be one or greater than one or less than one why​

Physics

Explanation:

Because they change the direction of force and multiply the effort.

They increase the rate of doing work.

So, MA of first class lever can be one or greater than one or less than one

There are three kinds of levers:

1) First Class Lever -- the effort and the load on either side of the fulcrum. Some examples would be a crowbar or a seesaw. The effort is only less than the load if the load is closer to the fulcrum. The lever then acts as a force magnifier and the mechanical advantage is greater than one. If the effort is closer to the fulcrum, then the effort is larger than the load and the mechanical advantage is less than one. In this case the lever acts as a movement magnifier.

2) Second Class Lever -- the load is between the fulcrum and the effort. An example is a nutcracker or a wheelbarrow. This type of lever always acts as a force magnifier and its mechanical advantage is greater than one.

3) Third Class Lever -- the effort is between the load and the fulcrum. An example is a pair of sugar tongs. This is a movement magnifier which means its mechanical advantage is less than one. The load moves more than the effort. (When you use sugar tongs, a small movement of the fingertips makes the jaws of the tongs move a lot

How many electrons are shared by two atoms that form a triple bond
igomit [66]

Answer: 6. 3 pairs of electron

Explanation:

A triple bond occurs when two atoms in a molecule shares 3 pairs of electron. A triple bond is also, a type of bond under the Covalent bond, which also includes, double bond and single bond.

Typically, a Covalent bond contains 2 elections. 1 from each atom. This means that, triple bond contains 6 electrons since there are three Covalent bonds, in a triple bond.

A triple bond is stronger than a single bond. It is characterized by sigma bonds between hybridized orbitals, and pi bonds between unhybridized p orbitals.

A triple bond is also vulnerable to "electron thieves". Example of compound with triple bond includes Dinitrogen, acetylene, carbon monoxide etc

What does chucking do for your memory
erastova [34]

Answer:

By separating disparate individual elements into larger blocks, information becomes easier to retain and recall. This is due mainly to how limited our short-term memory can be. ... Chunking allows people to take smaller bits of information and combine them into more meaningful, and therefore more memorable, wholes.

A 0.144kg baseball is pitched horizontally at 38.0 m/s. After the baseball is hit by the bat, it moves at the same speed, but in
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Given:

mass of the ball m = 0.144 kg

velocity v = 38 m/s

now,  change in momentum

P = m v- ( - mv)

  = 2 mv

  =2 x (0.144) x (38)

  = 10.944 kg-m/s

Impulse J= F. Δt

change in momentum is equal to impulse

J = 10.944 kg-m/s

we know force is equal to change in momentum per unit time

F = \dfrac{P}{t}

F = \dfrac{10.944}{0.8\times 10^{-3}}

F = 13.68 x 10³ N

F = 13.68 kN

masya89 [10]
<span>One astronomical unit is equal to the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. The answer is letter B. However, the distance between the earth and the sun varies as the earth revolves around the sun. but recent discoveries have proven the exact distance. It is also equal to 149, 597, 870, 700 meters and was defined by the International Astronomical Union. </span>
