In a real system of levers, wheel or pulleys, the AMA (actual mechanical advantage) is less than the IMA (ideal mechanical advantage) because of the presence of friction.

In fact, the IMA and the AMA of a machine are defined as the ratio between the output force (the load) and the input force (the effort):
IMA= \frac{F_{out}}{F_{in}}
however, the difference is that the IMA does not take into account the presence of frictions, while the AMA does. As a result, the output force in the AMA is less than the output force in the IMA (because some energy is dissipated due to friction), and the AMA is less than the IMA.

A Red Rider bb gun uses the energy in a compressed spring to provide the kinetic energy for propelling a small pellet of mass 0.
Kay [80]

Answer:

a.6.5025 J

b.6.5025 J

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of pellet,m=0.27 g=0.27\times 10^{-3} kg

1 kg=1000 g

Spring constant,k=1800 N/m

x=8.5 cm=8.5\times 10^{-2} m

1m=100 cm

a.Potential energy stored in the compressed spring  is given by

P.E=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

P.E=\frac{1}{2}(1800)(8.5\times 10^{-2})^2

P.E=6.5025 J

b.By using law of conservation of energy

P.E of spring=K.E of the pellet

K.E of the pellet=6.5025 J

Two point charges of equal magnitude are 8.0 cm apart. At the midpoint of the line connecting them, their combined electric fiel
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

r = 8/2 = 4cm = 0.04m

k = 9×10^9

Enet = 51 N/C

Enet = E1 + E2

since E1 = E2

E1 = Enet/2 = 51/2

E/2 = kq/r²

q = Er²/2k

q = (51 × 0.04²)/(2×9×10^9)

q = 4.5×10^-12 C

q1 = q2 = 4.5 pC

Explanation:

The electric field is a region around a

charge in which it exerts electrostatic force

on another charges. While the strength of

electric field at any point in space is called

electric field intensity. It is a vector

quantity. Its unit is NC¯¹.

According to coulomb’s law ,if a unit

positive charge q (call it a test charge) is

brought near a charge q (call a field

charge) placed in space,the charge q will

experience a force. The value of this force

depends upon the distance between the

two charges. If the charge q is moved

away from q ,this force would decrease till

at a certain distance the force would be

practically reduced to zero. The charge q

is then out of the influence of charge q.

The region of space surrounding the charge

q in which it exerts a force on the charge

q is known as E.F of the charge

q. Mathematically it is expressed as:

E =F/q

The direction of the vector E is the same

as the direction of F,because q is a

positive scalar. Dimensionally,the E.F is

force per unit charge,and its SI unit is the

newton/coulomb (N/C).

IM A plastic sphere floats in water with 50.0% of its volume submerged. This same sphere floats in glycerin with 40.0 \% of its
arsen [322]

Density of glycerin is 5/4 times water density.

Density of the sphere is 1/2 times water density.

<h3>How to find the density of sphere floats and glycerin?</h3>

Density is defined as the ratio of mass to volume, that is density is the amount of mass per unit of volume.

A substance's density exist defined as its mass per unit of volume. Density is most frequently represented by the symbol, however Latin letter D may also be utilized. If the mass or volume of an object is altered, the density of the thing may also change. Water, for example, has a specific density. An object will sink if its density exists greater than that of water; it will float if its density is lower.

Since a plastic sphere floats in water with 50% of its volume submerged.

So, the Density of the sphere = 1/2× water density

Since the same sphere floats in glycerin with 40% of its volume submerged.

So, the Density of the sphere = 4/100 × Glycerin density

= 2/5 × Glycerin density

Density of Glycerin = 5/2 of sphere density

Density of glycerin = 5/2 × 1/2 × water density

Density of glycerin = 5/4 × water density

Why don’t trade winds blow straight toward the equator<br> Apex
rosijanka [135]

Trade winds near equator blows in curve path instead of straight path. This is because of earth rotation. This effect of earth rotation that cause wind to move in curve motion is called Coriolis effect. These kind of wind blows at the northeast of the North hemisphere and southeast of the South hemisphere. The trade wind are warm and it blows due to rising of hot air from equator.
