Answer:

The mechanical advantage of the pulley is 1.

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage of the pulley is given as

MA=\frac{F}{f}

Here, MA is represent for the mechanical advantage of the pulley, F is load for lift and f applied force.

Given F =21 N and f= 21 N.

Substitute the given values, we get

MA=\frac{21N}{21N}

MA = 1.

Thus, the mechanical advantage of the pulley is 1.

Alice drops a rock to a well. She hears the splash of the rock 4.1s later. The speed of sound is 340m/s. How deep is the well
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

697 m

Explanation:

From the question above,

Note: Alice hears the splash of the rock in the well through the help of echo.

Applying,

v = 2x/t........................ Equation 1

Where v = speed of sound, x = depth of the well, t = time.

make x the subject of the formula in equation 1

x = vt/2................... Equation 2.

Given: v = 340 m/s, t = 4.1 s

Substitute these values into equation 2

x = 340(4.1)/2

x = 697 m.

To give an idea of sensitivity of the platypus's electric sense, how far from a 80nC n C point charge does the field have this m
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

A platypus foraging for prey can detect an electric field as small as 0.002 N/C.

-To give an idea of sensitivity of the platypus's electric sense, how far from a +80nC point charge does the field have this magnitude?

Solution :

Given electric field,  E = 0.002 N/C

Charge, Q = + 80 nC

$\therefore E = \frac{kQ}{R^2} $

or $R^2=\frac{kQ}{E}$

    $R^2=\frac{9\times 10^9 \times 80 \times 10^{-9}}{0.002}$

   R = 600 m

This is the distance of the charge from the point of observations.

The Palo Verde nuclear power generator of Arizona has three reactors that have a combined generating capacity of 3.937×109 W . H
den301095 [7]

Answer:

t = 2.68 x 10¹⁴ years

Explanation:

First we need to find the amount of energy that Sun produce in one day.

Energy = Power * Time

Energy of Sun in 1 day = (3.839 x 10²⁶ W)(1 day)(24 hr/1 day)(3600 s/ 1 hr)

Energy of Sun in 1 day = 3.32 x 10³¹ J

Now, the time required by the nuclear power generator, in years, will be:

Energy of power generator = Energy Sun in 1 day = 3.32 x 10³¹ J

3.32 x 10³¹ J = Power * Time

3.32 x 10³¹ J = (3.937 x 10⁹ W)(t years)(365 days/1 year)(24 hr/1 day)(3600 s/ 1 hr)

t = 3.32 x 10³¹ /1.24 x 10¹⁷

<u>t = 2.68 x 10¹⁴ years</u>
