A. IMA: 4

The Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) is given by:

IMA = \frac{d_i}{d_o}

where

d_i is the input distance

d_o is the output distance

For the pulley system in this problem, d_i = 3.90 m and d_o = 0.975 m, so the IMA is

IMA=\frac{3.90 m}{0.975 m}=4


B. MA: 3.59

The actual mechanical advantage (AMA), or simply the Mechanical Advantage (MA), is given by

MA=\frac{F_o}{F_i}

where F_o is the output force and F_i is the input force. For the pulley system in this problem, F_i = 375 N and F_o = 1345 N, so the MA is

MA=\frac{1345 N}{375 N}=3.59


C. Efficiency: 89.8 %

The efficiency of a machine is equal to the ratio between the MA and the AMA:

\eta = \frac{MA}{AMA} \cdot 100

Therefore, in this case,

\eta=\frac{3.59}{4}\cdot 100=0.898=89.8 \%

Air bags are designed to deploy in 10 ms. Given that the air bags expand 20 cm as they deploy, estimate the acceleration of the
joja [24]

As it is given that the air bag deploy in time

t = 10 ms = 0.010 s

total distance moved by the front face of the bag

d = 20 cm = 0.20 m

Now we will use kinematics to find the acceleration

d = v_i*t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

0.20 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}a*0.010^2

0.20 = 5 * 10^{-5}* a

a = 4000 m/s^2

now as we know that

g = 10 m/s^2

so we have

a = 400g

so the acceleration is 400g for the front surface of balloon

It is essential to behave appropriately on social media and be _______ when you post anything.
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

I would say be Mindful.

Explanation:

There could be like a MILLION answers for this. I think that you should personally go with your gut. That would be the best option. I think it's mindful because you really do have to be mindful when you post. Like not posting too much, not posting stuff you're uncomfortable with, not posting when on vacation, etc. So, I think you should be mindful.

A furlong is an old british unit of length equal to 0.125 mi, derived from the length of a furrow in an acre of ploughed land. a
castortr0y [4]

The speed of light is: c = 3x10^8 m/s <span>

or 

c = 186,000,000 miles/sec = 1.86x10^8 mi/s 

1 furlong = 0.125 mile 

1 fortnight = 2 weeks(7d/wk)(24h/d)(3600s/h) 
= 1209600s = 1.2096x10^6 s 

Therefore, 

c =1.86x10^8 mi/s(1furl/0.125mi)(1.2096x10^6s/fort) 

<span>c = 18x10^14 furlong/fortnight = 18x10^8 Mfurlong/fortnight</span></span>
