A person is lifting a heavy box using a lever. What is the purpose of the lever in this situation?

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

to reduce the force needed to lift the box and change the direction of the force

Explanation:

1. "A lever consists of a rigid bar that is able to pivot at one point. This point of rotation is known as the fulcrum. A force is applied at some point away from the fulcrum (typically called the effort)."

By this definition, we know that force is needed to lift an object using a lever.

2. "When the input and output forces are on opposite sides of the fulcrum, the lever changes the direction of the applied force. This occurs only with first-class levers. When both the input and output forces are on the same side of the fulcrum, the direction of the applied force does not change"

For example, on a sew saw, if a force is applied on one end, you on the other side/end would go up, meaning a change in direction.

3. Lastly, we know a lever is typically used to reduce work, in other words, the force needed to move something.

Basically, if we were to put a lever into an equation:

reduced force + change in direction = lever

(the expection) unless load and force are on the same side, there will be no change in direction.

For example, if you and your friend sit on the same side of a sew saw, the sew saw would not go up or down, meaning no change in direction.

So if not stated otherwise you can assume the load and force are on opposite sides. The purpose of a lever in that situation would be to reduce the force needed to lift the box and change the direction of the force.

*While reading my explanation, it may be helpful to look up a diagram containing a lever, with a load, fulcrum, and applied force.

You are watching an archery tournament when you start wondering how fast an arrow is shot from the bow. Remembering your physics

spayn [35]

Answer:

$v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}$

Explanation:

This is a projectile motion problem. We will first separate the motion into x- and y-components, apply the equations of kinematics separately, then we will combine them to find the initial velocity.

The initial velocity is in the x-direction, and there is no acceleration in the x-direction.

On the other hand, there no initial velocity in the y-component, so the arrow is basically in free-fall.

Applying the equations of kinematics in the x-direction gives

$x - x_0 = v_{x_0} t + \frac{1}{2}a_x t^2\\63 \times 10^{-3} = v_0t + 0\\t = \frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}$

For the y-direction gives

$v_y = v_{y_0} + a_y t\\v_y = 0 -9.8t\\v_y = -9.8t$

Combining both equation yields the y_component of the final velocity

$v_y = -9.8(\frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}) = -\frac{0.61}{v_0}$

Since we know the angle between the x- and y-components of the final velocity, which is 180° - 2.8° = 177.2°, we can calculate the initial velocity.

$\tan(\theta) = \frac{v_y}{v_x}\\\tan(177.2^\circ) = -0.0489 = \frac{v_y}{v_0} = \frac{-0.61/v_0}{v_0} = -\frac{0.61}{v_0^2}\\v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}$

A bird is about 6.26.2 in. long, with a thin, dark bill and a wide, white wing stripe. If the bird can fly 9292 mi with the w

Trava [24]

Answer:

$209$ mph

Explanation:

$V$ = Speed of bird in still air

$v$ = Speed of wind = 44 mph

Consider the motion of the bird with the wind

$D_{1}$ = distance traveled with the wind = 9292 mi

$t_{1}$ = time taken to travel the distance with wind

Time taken to travel the distance with wind is given as

$t_{1} = \frac{D_{1}}{V + v}$

$t_{1} = \frac{9292}{V + 44}$ eq-1

Consider the motion of the bird with the wind

$D_{2}$ = distance traveled against the wind = 6060 mi

$t_{2}$ = time taken to travel the distance against wind

Time taken to travel the distance against wind is given as

$t_{2} = \frac{D_{2}}{V + v}$

$t_{2} = \frac{6060}{V - 44}$ eq-2

As per the question,

Time taken with the wind = Time taken against the wind

$t_{1} = t_{2}$

$\frac{9292}{V + 44} = \frac{6060}{V - 44}$

$(9292) (V - 44) = (6060) (V + 44)$

$9292V - 408848 = 6060V + 266640$

$3232V = 675488$

$V = 209$ mph

If 2.40 g of KNO3 reacts with sufficient sulfur (S8) and carbon (C), how much P-V work will the gases do against an external pre

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

$-112.876J$

Explanation:

In order to solve this question, we would need to incorporate Stoichiometry, which involves using relationships between reactants and/or products in a chemical reaction to determine desired quantitative data.

Here's a balanced equation for the reaction:

$16KNO_3(s) + 24C(s) + S_8(s) \to 24CO_2(g) + 8N_2(g) + 8K_2S(s)$

Let us define $P - V$ work as;

$w_{pv} = - P_{external} \triangle Volume$

where $\triangle (Volume) = (V_{final} - V_{initial})$

External pressure is given as $1.00$ $atm$ , therefore the work solely depends on the change in volume and since the reactants are solids, none of the reactants contribute to the volume. Hence, $V_i = 0.$

To find the volume of the products, we need to first find the amount of moles of the product made from $2.40_gKNO_3,$ using the molar mass of $KNO_3$ which is 101.1032 g/mol
