Actual Mechanical Advantage(AMA) = Weight / Force
Here, Weight = 764 N
Force = 255 N

Substitute the values in to the expression, 
AMA = 764 / 255
AMA = 2.99

After rounding-off to the nearest tenth value, it would be 3

Finally, option C would be your answer.

Hope this helps!

10. A hockey puck with mass 0.3 kg is sliding along ice that can be considered frictionless. The puck’s velocity is 20 m/s when
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

d = \frac{v^2_i}{2a}= \frac{(20m/s)^2}{2* 3.43 m/s^2}=58.309m

Explanation:

For this case  we can use the second law of Newton given by:

\sum F = ma

The friction force on this case is defined as :

F_f = \mu_k N = \mu_k mg

Where N represent the normal force, \mu_k the kinetic friction coeffient and a the acceleration.

For this case we can assume that the only force is the friction force and we have:

F_f = ma

Replacing the friction force we got:

\mu_k mg = ma

We can cancel the mass and we have:

a = \mu_k g = 0.35 *9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}= 3.43 \frac{m}{s^2}

And now we can use the following kinematic formula in order to find the distance travelled:

v^2_f = v^2_i - 2ad

Assuming the final velocity is 0 we can find the distance like this:

d = \frac{v^2_i}{2a}= \frac{(20m/s)^2}{2* 3.43 m/s^2}=58.309m
