given that acceleration due to gravity is a = -10 m/s^2

initial speed will be ZERO

and we need to find the displacement in t = 8 s

now we can use kinematics equation to find the displacement

\delta y = v_y * t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

now plug in all values in it

\delta y = 0* 8 + \frac{1}{2}*(-10)*8^2

\delta y = -320 m

<em>so it will displace downwards by 320 m</em>

A load of 800 N is lifted using a block and tackle having 5 pulleys. If the applied effort is 200 N, calculate
ser-zykov [4K]

Explanation:

Load=800N

Effort=200N

1. Mechanical Advantage = LOAD/EFFORT

= 800N/200N

= 4

2 Velocity Ratio = no. Of pulleys =5

3. Efficiency = Mechanical advantage / velocity ratio × 100%

= (4/5)×100%

=80%

4. output work= load×load distance

= 800N × 5m

= 4 × 1000J

5. Efficiency = (output work/input work) ×100%

Or, 80% = (4000J/input work) ×100%

Or, 80%/100% = 4000J/inputwork

Or, 4/5 = 4000J/inputwork

Or, input work =4000J × 5/4

Input work = 5×1000J

I hope it helped! ;-)

One knife is longer from the cutting edge to the back of the blade. It's easier to push the longer knife through a pear and more
AlladinOne [14]

By the formula of torque balance we know that

\tau = r\times F

here we know that

r = distance of force

F = applied force

so here we know that as we will take large edge knife then the distance of force will increase

due to this the torque will also increase in it so it is easy to pear it

So here we can say

F_{in}r_1 = F_{out}r_2

F_{out} = \frac{r_1}{r_2} F_{in}

so output force will increase in this case

So here the correct answer would be

<em>b. the longer the knife, the stronger the output force</em>

The path of the sun on the celestial sphere is called.
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Ecliptic

Explanation:

The path the sun, moon, and planets take across the sky as seen from Earth. It defines the plane of the Earth's orbit around the sun. The name "Ecliptic" comes from the fact that eclipses take place along this line.

To run a centrifuge correctly, you should:
ser-zykov [4K]
Balance tubes by spacing them equally around the centrifuge and Always balance tubes with other tubes containing a same volume of liquid are right. 
If you don't space them out equally, you will have a lot of broken glass to clean up...trust me. The same thing can happen if you don't have equal amounts of liquid in each tube, but it doesn't have to be exactly the same in every one.
