1. Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA): 9

Explanation:

For a wheel and axle system like the steering wheel, the IMA is given by:

IMA=\frac{r_w}{r_a}

where

r_w is the radius of the wheel

r_a is the radius of the axle

For the steering wheel of the problem, we see that r_w = 18 cm and r_a=2 cm, so the IMA is

IMA=\frac{18 cm}{2 cm}=9


2. Efficiency: 88.9%

Explanation:

The efficiency of a system is defined as the ratio between the AMA (actual mechanical advantage) and the IMA:

\eta=\frac{AMA}{IMA}\cdot 100

In this problem, AMA=8 and IMA=9, so the efficiency is

\eta=\frac{8}{9}\cdot 100=88.9\%

What do these letters stand for<br> P=mv
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The equation for momentum of a piece of matter.

In either case, the momentum would be less than a linebacker hitting you at full speed. The equation for momentum is written: p = mv where p stands for momentum. That is, mass times velocity equals momentum.

Describe the valence electrons in nitrogen and how it could bond to other atoms?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Each nitrogen molecule consists of two atoms of nitrogen that are bonded by a triple covalent bond. This is because each nitrogen atom has 5 valence electrons. Each atom can complete its octet by sharing three electrons.

I hope this helps!

A charged object is suspended motionless in the air by the gravitational force pulling it down and an electric force pushing it
Savatey [412]

The charge of the object must be 1.11 \times e^{-5} \text { coulomb }

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Suppose an electric charge can be represented by the symbol Q. This electric charge generates an electric field; Because Q is the source of the electric field, we call this as source charge. The electric field strength of the source charge can be measured with any other charge anywhere in the area. The test charges used to test the field strength.

Its quantity indicated by the symbol q. In the electric field, q exerts an electric, either attractive or repulsive force. As usual, this force is indicated by the symbol F. The electric field’s magnitude is simply defined as the force per charge (q) on Q.

         Electric field, E=\frac{\text { Force }(F)}{q}

Here, given E = 4500 N/C and F = 0.05 N.

We need to find charge of the object (q)

By substituting the given values, we get

      q=\frac{F}{E}=\frac{0.05 N}{4500 \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{c}}=1.11 \times e^{-5} \text { coulomb }

The air pressure inside a car tire is
Valentin [98]

Answer:

0.137m²

Explanation:

Pressure = Force/Area

Given

Force = 41,500N

Pressure = 3.00atm

since 1atm = 101325.00 N/m²

3atm = 3(101325.00)

3atm = 303,975N/m²

Pressure = 303,975N/m²

Get the area

Area = Force/Pressure

Area = 41500/303,975

Area = 0.137m²'

Hence the surface area of the  inside of the tire is 0.137m²
