Explanation:

An asterism is a collection of stars in the night sky that is popularly known. Asterisms are not recognised by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) as constellations. They are not constellations as constellations are a region of the night sky.

The Great Diamond is an asterism which consists of the four stars namely Cor Caroli in Canes Venatici, Denebola, Spica and Arcturus. Big dipper is also an asterism.

24. An elevator is moving vertically up with an acceleration a. The force exerted on the floor by a passenger of mass m is
Wewaii [24]

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • An elevator is moving vertically up with an acceleration a.

<u>To </u><u>Find</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • The force exerted on the floor by a passenger of mass m .

<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

As the man is in a accelerated frame that is <u>non </u><u>inertial</u><u> frame</u><u> </u>, we would have to think of a pseudo force .

  • The direction of this force is opposite to the direction of acceleration the frame and its magnitude is equal to the product of mass of the concerned body with the acceleration of the frame .

For the FBD refer to the attachment . From that ,

\implies Weight_{apparent}= mg + ma

<u>Hence</u><u> </u><u>option</u><u> </u><u>d </u><u>is </u><u>correct</u><u> </u><u>choice </u><u>.</u>

A boy kicks a soccer ball, giving it an initial speed of 7.5m/s at an angle of 27° above the horizontal(=ground). How high will
Gelneren [198K]

When the initial speed given is 7.5m/s at an angle of 27° , ball will go

4.637 meters.

Assume no air opposition to the ball ;

Vertical component of ball is sin 27° =  0.453

0.453* 7.5 = 3.404 meters /sec

Time taken to reach ground is :

3.404 = -3.404+9.8*t

t= 6.808/9.8= 0.694 sec

Horizontal component is 7.5*cos27°= 6.682m/s

Distance = speed * time

=6.682 * 0.694

=4.637 meters

Horizontal distance it can cover in 0.694 sec is 4.637 meters

So range of ball is 4.637 meters.

Form of motion experienced by an object or particle that is projected near surface of the earth and moves along a curve is called Projectile motion. Three types of projectile motion are Horizontal projectile motion. Oblique projectile motion and Projectile motion on an inclined plane.

To know more about projectile motion, refer

A wheel is used to turn a valve stem on a water valve. How much is the mechanical advantage when an effort of 80 lbs. is applied
Ann [662]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Effort (E) = 80 lbs

Load (L) = 320 lbs

Mechanical advantage (MA) =?

Mechanical advantage is simply defined as the ratio of load to effort. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Mechanical advantage = Load / Effort

MA = L / E

With the above formula, we can obtain the mechanical advantage as illustrated below:

Effort (E) = 80 lbs

Load (L) = 320 lbs

Mechanical advantage (MA) =?

MA = L / E

MA = 320 / 80

MA = 4

Thus, the mechanical advantage is 4
