The IMA of a lever can be increased by decreasing the length between the applied effort and the pivot.

Physics

Explanation:

The ideal mechanical advantage of a lever is defined as the ratio of applied resistance force to the applied effort force. It can be also defined as the ratio of effort arm to the load arm. It is given by :

IMA=\dfrac{d_1}{d_2}

d_1 = effort arm

d_2 = load arm

If the length between the applied effort and the pivot is decreased, the IMA of a lever will decreased. This is due to the direct relation between IMA and effort arm. So, the given statement is false.

<span>We never really used the acronym "IMA", or ideal mechanical advantage, but I'm assuming you are trying to increase the leverage and ease the effort. If so, the answer is false. You want larger movement on the effort side, and smaller movement on the resistant side of the fulcrum.</span>

Citrus2011 [14]
The momentum of both the identical balls would eventually be transferred to one another when it comes to a point wherein they will collide. In addition, the phenomenon is called an elastic collision wherein both the momentum and energy of the system would considered to be conserved.

Why does the current is reduced as electrons move through a conductor
hammer [34]
Because the electrons collide with the particles inside the conductor so are therefore slowed down seen as current is the rate of flow of electrons

Is electrical conductivity?
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

can't tell if this is question, it is not written correctly

Explanation:

Electrical conductivity is the measure of a material's ability to allow the transport of an electric charge. Its SI is the siemens per meter, (A2s3m−3kg−1) (named after Werner von Siemens) or, more simply, Sm−1. It is the ratio of the current density to the electric field strength.

Can you explain what a mixture is from a chemical prospective?
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Mixtures are materials that contain two or more chemical substances dispersed among each other (mixed together). If no chemical reaction occurs when two materials are mixed, they form a mixture. The chemical properties of the components don't change.
