Answer:

The correct answer is option 'B': Load is far from fulcrum and the effort is applied near the fulcrum

Explanation:

A lever works on the principle of balancing of torques. The torque about the fulcrum by the load should be equal to the torque by the applied effort. Since we know that the torque is proportional to both the force and the distance it is applied from the distance from the axis of rotation. A lever is used when we need to lift a heavy load by utilizing this effect of the lever arm.

A mechanical disadvantage occurs when we are not able to lift the weight easily due to the fact we apply effort near the fulcrum.

A 11-cm-diameter horizontal jet of water with a velocity of 40 m/s relative to the ground strikes a flat plate that is moving in

Reika [66]

Answer:

F = 8552.7N

Explanation:

We need first our values, that are,

$V_{jet} = 40m/s\\V_{Plate} = 10m/s \\D = 11cm$

We start to calculate the relative velocity, that is,

$V_r = V_{jet}-V_{plate}\\V_r = (40)-(10)\\V_r = 30m/s$

With the relative velocity we can calculate the mass flow rate, given by,

$\dot{m}_r = \rho A V_r$

$\dot{m}_r = (1000)(30) \frac{\pi (0.11)^2}{4}$

$\dot{m}_r = 285.09kg/s$

We need to define the Force in the direction of the flow,

$\sum\vec{F} = \sum_{out} \beta\dot{m}\vec{V} - \sum_{in} \beta\dot{m} \vec{V}\\$

$F = \dot{m}V_r$

$F = (285.09Kg/s)(30)$

$F = 8552.7N$

melinda is using a rectangular brass bar in a sculpture she is creating. the brass bar has a length that is 4 more than 3 times

lawyer [7]

Answer:

180 x 60 inches

Width = 60 inches

Length = 180 inches

Explanation:

Given

Let L = Length

W = Width

P = Perimeter

Length = 3 * Width

L = 3W

Perimeter of Brass = 480 inches

P = 480

Perimeter is given as 2(L + W);

So, 2 (L + W) = 480

L + W = 480/2

L + W = 240

Substitute 3W for L; so,

3W + W = 240

4W = 240

W = 240/4

W = 60 inches

L = 3W

L = 3 * 60

L = 180 inches
