IMA = Ideal Mechanical Advantage

First class lever = > F1 * x2 = F2 * x1

Where F1 is the force applied to beat F2. The distance from F1 and the pivot is x1 and the distance from F2 and the pivot is x2

=> F1/F2 = x1 /x2

IMA = F1/F2 = x1/x2

Now you can see the effects of changing F1, F2, x1 and x2.

If you decrease the lengt X1 between the applied effort (F1) and the pivot,  IMA decreases.

If you increase the length X1 between the applied effort (F1) and the pivot, IMA increases.

If you decrease the applied effort (F1) and increase the distance between it and the pivot (X1) the new IMA may incrase or decrase depending on the ratio of the changes.

If you decrease the applied effort (F1) and decrease the distance between it and the pivot  (X1) IMA will decrease.

Answer: Increase the length between the applied effort and the pivot.

How do you find circular motion?​
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

By multiplying the rotational frequency with the circumference we can determine the average speed of the object. The circular velocity formula is expressed as, vc = 2 πr / T. Where in, r denotes the radius of the circular orbit. T is time period.

What is a derived physical quantity? Name three derived physical quantities, and for each, give its S.I. units and its U.S. Cust
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Physical quantity is a physical property of an object or material that can be expressed by magnitude and unit.

The derived physical quantities are the type of physical quantities which can be expressed or defined by other physical quantities, called the base quantities. Example: Area, Volume, Velocity

Area- SI Unit: m², U.S. Customary unit: acre

Volume- SI Unit: m³, U.S. Customary unit: cubic inch

Velocity- SI Unit: m/s, U.S. Customary unit: ft/s
