<h3>Answer:</h3>

1

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • A pulley is an example of a simple machine that is made up of ropes and wheels.
  • Mechanical advantage refers to the number of times that a simple machine multiplies the input force.
  • This means if a simple machine has a mechanical advantage of 5 then it means that it made the work done 5 times easier than without it.
  • It also means that one would apply 1/5 times the force they would have applied without the machine.
  • In this case, the pulley which is a simple machine requires you pull 3 times the amount of the rope. Therefore, the mechanical advantage of the machine is 1, which means the output force is equal to the input force.

An object in circular motion has velocity that is constantly changing. The direction of the acceleration is
Keith_Richards [23]
<h2>Answer: Toward the center of the circle.</h2>

This situation is characteristic of the uniform circular motion , in which the movement of a body describes a circumference of a given radius with constant speed.  

However, in this movement the velocity has a constant magnitude, but its direction varies continuously.

Let's say \vec{V} is the velocity vector, whose direction is perpendicular to the radius r of the trajectory, therefore   the acceleration \vec{a} is directed toward the center of the circumference.

SP1b.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

2 m/s^2, west

Explanation:

Vf=final velcoity

Vi=initial velocity

t=timw

a =  \frac{vf - vi}{t}

=

\frac{15 - 25}{5}

= - 2 m/s^2

The - changes direction and makes it opposite

2 m/s, west
