Answer:

Ideal mechanical advantage of the lever is 3.

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between the levers input force and the fulcrum is 8 cm, d_i=8\ cm

The distance between the fulcrum and the output force is 24 cm, d_o=24\ cm

To find,

The ideal mechanical advantage of the lever.

Solution,

The ratio of the distance between the fulcrum and the output force to the distance between the levers input force and the fulcrum is called the ideal mechanical advantage of the lever. It is given by :

m=\dfrac{d_o}{d_i}

m=\dfrac{24}{8}

m = 3

So, the ideal mechanical advantage of the lever is 3.

ANEK [815]

Hi!


The correct answer would be: the width of I-bands


The sacromere is the smallest contractile unit of striated muscles. These units comprise of filaments (fibrous proteins) that, upon muscle contraction or relaxation, slide past each other. The sacromere consists of thick filaments (myosin) and thin filaments (actin).


<em>Refer to the attached picture to clearly see the structure of a sacromere.</em>


<u>When a sacromere contracts, a series of changes take place which include:</u>

<em>- Shortening of I band, and consequently the H zone</em>

<em>- The A line remains unchanged</em>

<em>- Z lines come closer to each other (and this is due to the shortening of the I bands) </em>

The only changes that take place occur in the zones/areas in the sacromere (as mentioned), not in the filaments (actin and myosin) that make the up the sacromere; hence all other options are wrong.


Hope this helps!

During a snowball fight two balls with masses of 0.4 kg and 0.6 kg, respectively, are thrown in such a manner that they meet hea
valkas [14]
Considering conservation of momentum;
m1v1 + m2v2 = m3v3

In which,
m1 = mass of snowball 1 = 0.4 kg
v1 = velocity of snowball 1 = 15 m/s
m2 = mass of snowball 2 = 0.6 kg
v2 = velocity of snow ball 2 = 15 m/s
m3 = combined mass = 1 kg
v3 = velocity after comination
Therefore;
0.4*15 + 0.6*15 = 1*v3
v3 = 6+9 = 15 m/s
KE = 1/2mv^2

Then,
KE1 = 1/2*0.4*15^2 = 45 J
KE2 = 1/2*0.6*15^2 = 67.5 J
KE3 = 1/2*1*15^2 = 112.5 J

Therefore, KE3 (kinetic energy after collision) = K1+K2 {kinetic energy before collision). And thus it is 100%.
