Answer:

Efficiency of the pulley system is 66.7 %

Explanation:

It is given that,

Input force, F_{in}=500\ lb

Distance, d₁ = 2 feet

Output force, F_{out}=50\ lb    

Distance, d₂ = 30 feet

The efficiency of pulley system is defined as ratio of output work done to the input work done i.e.

\eta=\dfrac{W_{out}}{W_{in}}

\eta=\dfrac{500\times 2}{50\times 30}\times 100

\eta=66.7\%      

Hence, the efficiency of the pulley system is 66.7 %

If the axes of the two cylinders are parallel, but displaced from each other by a distance d, determine the resulting electric f
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

E =  ρ ( R1²) / 2 ∈o R

Explanation:

Given data

two cylinders are parallel

distance = d

radial distance = R

d < (R2−R1)

to find out

Express answer in terms of the variables ρE, R1, R2, R3, d, R, and constants

solution

we have two parallel cylinders

so area is 2 \pi R × l

and we apply here gauss law that is

EA = Q(enclosed) / ∈o   ......1

so first we find  Q(enclosed) = ρ Volume

Q(enclosed) = ρ ( \pi R1² × l )

so put all value in equation 1

we get

EA = Q(enclosed) / ∈o

E(2 \pi R × l)  = ρ ( \pi R1² × l ) / ∈o

so

E =  ρ ( R1²) / 2 ∈o R

At 7.0°c, the volume of a gas is 49 ml. at the same pressure, its volume is 74 ml at what temperature?
Rashid [163]
So i converted everything first; 
<span>7.0 C ---> 280 K </span>
<span>49 mL---> 0.049 L </span>
<span>74mL---> 0.074 L </span>
<span>THEN I tried setting it up by the combined law formula which is P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2 </span>

An electric current flows through a parallel circuit. Which units tell you about the amount of electrons traveling in the circui
kompoz [17]

'Ampere' is the unit of current.  That's the rate at which
electrons travel in the circuit ... the number of electrons
every second.  If you wanted the actual amount or number
of electrons, you'd need to know the length of time too.

It doesn't matter whether we're talking about a parallel or
series circuit.

Many types of decorative lights are connected in parallel. If a set of lights is connected to a 110 V source and the filament of
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

i₀ = V / R_i

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Ohm's law

         V = i R

          i = V / R

the equivalent resistance for

         \frac{1}{R_{eq}} =  ∑ \frac{1}{R_i}

if all the bulbs have the same resistance, there are N bulbs

         \frac{1}{ R_{eq}} = \frac{N}{R_i}

         R_{eq} = R_i / N

we substitute

         i = N V / Ri

where i is the total current that passes through the parallel, the current in a branch is

         i₀ = i / N

         i₀ = V / R_i
