<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.

All ball is thrown up with a vertical velocity of 54 m/s and a horizontal velocity of 39 m/s. Calculate how many seconds it will
VikaD [51]

5.5 s

Explanation:

The time it takes for the ball to reach its maximum height can be calculated using

v_y = v_{0y} - gt \Rightarrow t = \dfrac{v_{0y}}{g}

since v_y = 0 at the top of its trajectory. Plugging in the numbers,

t = \dfrac{(54\:\text{m/s})}{(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)} = 5.5\:\text{s}

An undersea research chamber is spherical with an external diameter of 5.50 m . The mass of the chamber, when occupied, is 87600
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

the buoyant force on the chamber is F = 7000460 N

Explanation:

the buoyant force on the chamber is equal to the weight of the displaced volume of sea water due to the presence of the chamber.

Since the chamber is completely covered by water, it displaces a volume equal to its spherical volume

mass of water displaced = density of seawater * volume displaced

m= d * V , V = 4/3π* Rext³

the buoyant force is the weight of this volume of seawater

F = m * g = d * 4/3π* Rext³ * g

replacing values

F = 1025 kg/m³ * 4/3π * (5.5m)³ * 9.8m/s² = 7000460 N

Note:

when occupied the tension force on the cable is

T = F buoyant - F weight of chamber  = 7000460 N - 87600 kg*9.8 m/s² = 6141980 N
