Answer: Simple machine

  • The movable inclined plane is called wedge.
  • A simple machine is a machine, which contains lever and wedge, is used to push the things apart.  
  • The mechanical advantage of a wedge is given by the ratio of length of its slope to its width.

Suppose you have two solid bars, both with square cross-sections of 1 cm2. They are both 24.6 cm long, but one is made of copper
vodka [1.7K]

Explanation:

Expression to calculate thermal resistance for iron (R_{I}) is as follows.

             R_{I} = \frac{L_{I}}{k_{I} \times A_{I}}  

where,   L_{I} = length of the iron bar

             k_{I} = thermal conductivity of iron

             A_{I} = Area of cross-section for the iron bar

Thermal resistance for copper (R_{c}) = \frac{L_{c}}{k_{c} \times A_{c}}[/tex]

where,  L_{c} = length of copper bar

             k_{c} = thermal conductivity of copper

            A_{c} = Area of cross-section for the copper bar

Now, expression for the transfer of heat per unit cell is as follows.

           Q = \frac{(100^{o} - 0^{o}}{\frac{L_{I}}{k_{I}.A_{I}} + \frac{L_{c}}{k_{c}.A_{c}}}

 Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

       Q = \frac{(100^{o} - 0^{o})}{\frac{L_{I}}{k_{I}.A_{I}} + \frac{L_{c}}{k_{c}.A_{c}}}

  = \frac{(100^{o} - 0^{o})}{21 \times 10^{-2} m[\frac{1}{73 \times 10^{-4}m^{2}} + \frac{1}{386 \times 10^{-4}m^{2}}}

           = 2.92 Joule

It is known that heat transfer per unit time is equal to the power conducted through the rod. Hence,

                 P = \frac{Q}{T}

Here, T is 1 second so, power conducted is equal to heat transferred.

So,           P = 2.92 watt

Thus, we can conclude that 2.92 watt power will be conducted through the rod when it reaches steady state.

An electric vehicle starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.4 m/s2 in a straight line until it reaches a speed of 27 m/s
DENIUS [597]
A) use v=u+at for both

First section, v=27, u=0, a=2.4. You should get 11seconds.
Second section, v=0, u=27, a=-1.3. You should get 21seconds.
This means that the total time is 22seconds.

b) You can either use s=ut+0.5at^2 or v^2=u^2+2as. Personally, I would use the second one as you are not relying on your previous answer.

First section, v=27, u=0, a=2.4. You should get 152m.
Second section, v=0, u=27, a=-1.3. You should get 280m.
This makes your overall displacement 432m.
