<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.

A plastic rod that has been charged to − 15 nC touches a metal sphere. Afterward, the rod's charge is − 5.0 nC.
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

B) electrons transferred from sphere to rod.

(2) 1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons were transferred

Explanation:

Given;

initial charge on the plastic rod, q₁ = 15nC

final charge on the plastic rod, q₂ = - 5nC

let the charge acquired by the plastic rod = q

q + 15nC = -5nC

q = -5nC - 15nC

q = -20 nC

Thus, the plastic rod acquired excess negative charge from the metal sphere.

Hence, electrons transferred from sphere to rod

B) electrons transferred from sphere to rod.

2) How many charged particles were transferred?

1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C = 1 electron

20 x 10⁻⁹ C = ?

= 1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons

Thus,1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons were transferred

A small airplane flies 780 miles with an average speed of 260 miles per hour. 1.5 hours after the plane leaves, a Boeing 747 lea
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

520 miles per hour

Explanation:

Let the speed of the Boeing 747 be x miles per hour.

The small airplane covers distance of 780 miles with speed 260 miles per hour.

Also,

After 1.5 hours the Boeing 747 leave the same place and reaches at same time. Both covered distance of 780 miles.

So,

<u>Time taken by Boeing 747 + 1.5 hours = Time taken by small plane.</u>

Also,

Time =  Distance/ speed

So,

780 / x + 1.5 = 780/ 260

Solving for x, we get:

<u>x = 520 miles per hour</u>
