Mechanical Advantage is the value which tells us the factor by which the machine is able to convert the force applied to it to its output.

Ideal Mechanical Advantage of wheel and axle is calculated by 

IMA = Wheel Radius / Axle Radius

By virtue, the higher the computed IMA the lower the force needed to be exerted, this is the purpose for using machine, lower input force but larger output. (The smalled the axle radius compared to the wheel radius is the better setup.)

10. Hamilton How long does it take Lewis travelling at 156 m.p.h to cover 16 miles?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: Hello!

Lewis is travelling at 165 mph, which means miles per hour, this says that he does 165 miles in one hour.

We want to know how much time takes to cover 16 miles.

this can be calculated as the quotient of the distance and the velocity; this is:

t = \frac{16 mi}{165 mi/h} = 0.096 h

if we want to write this in minutes, then:

we know that one hour has 60 minutes, then 0.096 hours has:

0.096h*60mins/1h = 5.8 minutes.

then Lewis needs 5.8 minutes in order to cover 16 miles if his speed is 156 miles per hour.

Range of a projectile motion is given by
R = v cos θ / g (v sin θ + sqrt(v^2 sin^2 θ + 2gy_0)); where R = 188m, θ = 41°, g = 9.8m/s^2, y_0 = 0.9

188 = v cos 41° / 9.8 (v sin 41° + sqrt(v^2 sin^2 41° + 2 x 9.8 x 0.9)) = 0.07701(0.6561v + sqrt(0.4304 v^2 + 17.64)) = 0.05053v + 0.07701sqrt(0.4304v^2 + 17.64)
0.07701sqrt(0.4304v^2 + 17.64) = 188 - 0.05053v
0.005931(0.4304v^2 + 17.64) = 35344 - 19v + 0.002553v^2
0.002553v^2 + 0.1046 = 35344 - 19v + 0.002553v^2
19v = 35344 - 0.1046 = 35343.8954
v = 35343.8954/19 = 1860 m/s

A. If a T-Rex runs 20 meters in 4 seconds, what is it’s average speed?
mariarad [96]

5m/s

100m

Explanation:

Average speed is sum of distance distance traveled in a given time by a body.

 Average speed= \frac{total distance covered}{time taken}

Distance = 20m

time = 4s

  Average speed = \frac{20}{4} = 5m/s

For the spaceship;

   Distance covered = speed x time

Speed = 50m/s

time = 2s

 Distance covered = 50 x 2 = 100m

You are driving home from school steadily at 95.0 km/h for 130 km. It then begins to rain and you slow to 65.0 km/h. You arrive
harkovskaia [24]
Very simple,Its all about calculating distance using the formula:
D = V x T
where,
V is the speed or velocity
D is distance
T is the time
In the given problem,there are two parts.
Lets do the calculations for both parts separately:
Part 1) Before the rain
Time = 130/95
         = 1.37 hours <span> </span>
<span>Time taken after the rain = Total time - time taken before the rain  </span>
<span>                                        = 3.34 hours - 1.37 hours
                                        = 1.97 hours </span>
<span>Distance covered after the rain = 1.97 hours x 65 km/h
                                                  = 128 km</span>
Hence,
<span>a) The total distance covered =  130 + 128
                                           = 258 km
</span><span>b) Average speed = Total distance/Total time
                             =  260/3.34
                             = 78 km/h </span>
