The formula of mechanical advantage in this situation is:
MA = Input Force ÷ Output Force

The input force is the 30N applied to a screwdriver while the output force is the 75N force to the lid.

So,

MA = 30N/75N
MA = 0.40

Hence the mechanical advantage of the screwdriver is 0.40.

Enough of a monoprotic weak acid is dissolved in water to produce a 0.0144 0.0144 M solution. The pH of the resulting solution i
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The value of dissociation constant of the monoprotic acid is 1.099\times 10^{-3}.

Explanation:

The pH of the solution = 2.46

pH=-\log[H^+]

2.46=-\log[H^+]

[H^+]=0.003467 M

HA\rightleftharpoons H^++A^-

Initially

0.0144         0      0

At equilibrium

(0.0144-x)       x       x

The expression if an dissociation constant is given by :

K_a=\frac{[A^-][H^+]}{[HA]}

K_a=\frac{x\times x}{(0.0144-x)}

x=[H^+]=0.003467 M

K_a=\frac{0.003467 \times 0.003467 }{(0.0144-0.003467 )}

K_a=1.099\times 10^{-3}

The value of dissociation constant of the monoprotic acid is 1.099\times 10^{-3}.

*WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!<br> Why is it difficult for us to use fusion reactions to produce energy?
kolbaska11 [484]
Fusion occurs constantly on our sun, which produces most of its energy via the nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. Neither do fusion reactions produce the large amounts of dangerous radioactive waste that fission reactions do. That's why it's such a dreamy source of energy.

Explain why lime is added to lakes. Refer to the problem that exists and what lime does to the lakes.
aalyn [17]

Explanation:

Lime is added to lower the acidity of lakes when pH levels go too low.

Acidic environment is harmful to aquatic ecosystems. Acidity causes some minerals, such as phosphorus and calcium, in the water to become unavailable to aquatic organisms like plants and fishes ( This means the water hardness is reduced). The low nutrients cause stress and death in the aquatic environment lowering biodiversity.  Applying lime raises the pH to neutral levels and improves the health of the aquatic life in the lake. This also improves economic activities in the lake like fishing.
