What is the mechanical advantage of a nail puller where you exert a force 45 cm from the pivot and the nail is 1.8 cm on the oth
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the distance of the input load (Li)from the pivot to the output load applied to the pivot(Lo)

MA = Li/Le

Given;

Li = 45cm

Lo = 1.8cm

MA = 45/1.8

MA = 25

Hence the mechanical advantage is 25

Also MA is expressed in terms of the force ratio which is the ratio of the Load to the effort applied.

MA = Load/Effort

Given

Load = 1250N

MA = 25

Effort = ?

Substitute

25 = 1250/Effort

Effort = 1250/25

Effort = 50N

Hence the minimum force exerted on the load is 50N

A system had 150 kj of work done on it and its internal energy increased by 60 kj. How much energy did the system gain or lose a
mina [271]

Answer:

The system loses 90 kJ of heat

Explanation:

We can answer the question by using the 1st law of thermodynamics, which states that:

\Delta U=Q-W

where

\Delta U is the change in internal energy of the system

Q is the heat absorbed by the system (positive if absorbed, negative if released by the system)

W is the work done by the system (positive if done by the system, negative if done by the surrounding on the system)

In this problem, we have:

W=-150 kJ is the work done (negative, because it is done by the surrounding on the system)

\Delta U=+60 kJ is the increase in internal energy

Using the equation above, we can find Q, the heat absorbed/released by the system:

Q=\Delta U+W=+60 kJ+(-150 kJ)=-90 kJ

And the negative sign means that the system has lost this heat.

How much heat does it take to raise the temperature of 10.0 kg of water by 1.0 C?
fomenos

Answer:The specific heat capacity of water is 4,200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C). This means that it takes 4,200 J to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1°C.

Which explains the information needed to calculate speed and velocity?
Anestetic [448]

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance.

Explanation:

Speed and velocity are two different quantities. In fact:

- Speed is a scalar quantity, which gives a measure of how fast an object is moving, regardless of its direction. Therefore, it only has a magnitude, which is given by the ratio between distance covered and time taken:

s=\frac{distance}{time}

Therefore, speed does not take into account the direction of motion.

- Velocity, on the other hand, is a vector quantity, so it has magnitude and a direction.

The magnitude of the velocity is given by

v=\frac{displacement}{time}

where displacement is a vector connecting the initial point with the final point of motion of an object.

The direction of the velocity corresponds to the direction of the displacement.

It must be noted also that in certain situations, the average velocity is zero, while the speed is not zero: for example, for an object completing a circle in a certain time interval, its speed is not zero, while its velocity is zero (because the object returns to the starting point, so the displacement is zero.

Therefore, the correct answer is

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance.
