True: the ideal mechanical advantage of a machine is always greater than the actual mechanical advantage because all machines must overcome friction.

Explanation:

For a simple machine, it is possible to calculate two types of mechanical advantage:

1) The Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) is given by

IMA=\frac{d_e}{d_r}

where

d_r is the resistance arm

d_e is the effort arm

The IMA gives the mechanical advantage of the machine if there are no friction forces acting on it, and if all the work in input is converted into work in output with no loss of energy

2) The Actual Mechanical Advantage (AMA) is given by

AMA=\frac{L}{E}

where

L is the load (the force in output)

E is the effort (the force in input)

The AMA gives the real mechanical advantage of the machine. For an ideal machine,

AMA=IMA

Because there is no loss of energy due to friction.

For a real machine instead,

AMA

because part of the input energy is converted into thermal energy and other forms of energy due to the presence of friction, so it is "wasted" energy.

If two point masses 1kg & 4kg are seperated by a distance of 2m. Magnitude of gravitational force exerted by 1kg on 4kg is ?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

  • F = G Newtons

Explanation:

Given:

  • Mass of 1st body = 1\:kg
  • Mass of 2nd body = 4\:kg

To Find:

  • Magnitude of gravitational force

Solution:

Here, we have a formula

  • F=\dfrac{G.M_{1}.M_{2}}{r^{2}}

<u>Substituting the values</u>

\implies\:\:F = \dfrac{G(1)(4)}{2^{2}}

\implies\:\:F = \dfrac{4G}{4}

\implies\:\:F = \dfrac{\cancel{4}G}{\cancel{4}}

\implies\:\:\red{F = G}

Know More:

The applied formula for the above solution is

{\boxed{F_{G}=\dfrac{G.M_{1}.M_{2}}{r^{2}}}}

where,

  • F_{G} = Gravitational force
  • G = Gravitational constant
  • M_{1} = mass of 1st body
  • M_{2} = mass of 2nd body
  • r = distance between two bodies

A 47.2 kg girl is standing on a 177 kg plank. The plank, originally at rest, is free to slide on a frozen lake, which is a flat,
Softa [21]

Answer:

v_g,i = 1.208 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of girl; m_g = 47.2 kg

Mass of plank; m_p = 177 kg

Let the velocity of girl to ice be v_g,i

Let the velocity of plank to ice be v_p,i

Since the velocity of the girl is 1.53 m/s relative to the plank, then;

v_g,i + v_p,i = 1.53

From conservation of momentum;

m_g × v_g,i = m_p × v_p,i

Thus;

47.2(v_g,i) = 177(v_p,i)

Dividing both sides by 47.2 gives;

v_g,i = 3.75(v_p,i)

v_pi = (v_g,i)/3.75

Thus, from v_g,i + v_p,i = 1.53, we have;

v_g,i + ((v_g,i)/3.75) = 1.53

v_g,i(1 + 1/3.75) = 1.53

1.267v_g,i = 1.53

v_g,i = 1.53/1.267

v_g,i = 1.208 m/s

Describe the process of sexual reproduction in terms of the life cycle of cells.
umka2103 [35]
The first growth phase (G1): During the G1 stage, the cell doubles in size and doubles the number of organelles.

The synthesis phase (S): The DNA is replicated during this phase. In other words, an identical copy of all the cell’s DNA is made. This ensures that each new cell has a set of genetic material identical to that of the parental cell. This process is called DNA replication.

The second growth phase (G2): Proteins are synthesized that will help the cell divide. At the end of interphase, the cell is ready to enter mitosis.

Electrically charged sunspot gases which escape the sun's chromosphere and enter the earth's atmosphere near the magnetic north
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Northern Lights ( Aurora Borealis)

Explanation:

When the electricaly charged sunspot gases (they are named a solar wind) escape the sun's chromosphere and penetrates from the earth magnetic sheild which is called earth's magnetosphere then upon there interaction with atoms and molecules of our atmosphere there are little bursts of photons in the form of light which made up these northern lights.
