Answer:

1 seesaw = first class lever

2. pencil and sharpener = wheel and axle

3. bottle opener = second class lever

4. forearm = third class lever

5. nail = wedge

Explanation:

The given objects are classic examples of simple machines.

Lever: There are 3 types of levers and they depend on where the load, applied force, and fulcrum are.

First class levers have the fulcrum in between the load and the applied force. In other words, the load and applied force are at opposite ends. The seesaw is a good example of this. Other examples would be, pliers, scissors, and the like.

Second class levers have the fulcrum and the applied force at the opposite ends. So in this case, the load is found in between. Examples of this would be a bottle opener or a crowbar.

For third class levers, the load and the fulcrum are at opposite ends and the applied force is in between. The forearm is a good example, so is a stapler, or even a broom.

A wedge is another simple machine. It is thick at one end and it gets thinner towards the other end, or it usually has a sharp end. Other examples of this would be an axe, or a knife.

A sharpener is actually a compound machine. The old-fashioned type of pencil sharpener, the one you crank makes use of a wheel and axle and a wedge. A wheel and axle is usually a machine that makes use of two circular parts; a wheel and a rod that is attached to its center.

A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 80.6 m/s at ground level.

kow [346]

Before the engines fail, the rocket's altitude at time t is given by

$y_1(t)=\left(80.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t+\dfrac12\left(3.90\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2$

and its velocity is

$v_1(t)=80.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}+\left(3.90\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t$

The rocket then reaches an altitude of 1150 m at time t such that

$1150\,\mathrm m=\left(80.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t+\dfrac12\left(3.90\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2$

Solve for t to find this time to be

$t=11.2\,\mathrm s$

At this time, the rocket attains a velocity of

$v_1(11.2\,\mathrm s)=124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

When it's in freefall, the rocket's altitude is given by

$y_2(t)=1150\,\mathrm m+\left(124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2$

where $g=9.80\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}$ is the acceleration due to gravity, and its velocity is

$v_2(t)=124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}-gt$

(a) After the first 11.2 s of flight, the rocket is in the air for as long as it takes for $y_2(t)$ to reach 0:

$1150\,\mathrm m+\left(124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=32.6\,\mathrm s$

So the rocket is in motion for a total of 11.2 s + 32.6 s = 43.4 s.

(b) Recall that

${v_f}^2-{v_i}^2=2a\Delta y$

where $v_f$ and $v_i$ denote final and initial velocities, respecitively, $a$ denotes acceleration, and $\Delta y$ the difference in altitudes over some time interval. At its maximum height, the rocket has zero velocity. After the engines fail, the rocket will keep moving upward for a little while before it starts to fall to the ground, which means $y_2$ will contain the information we need to find the maximum height.

$-\left(124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2=-2g(y_{\rm max}-1150\,\mathrm m)$

Solve for $y_{\rm max}$ and we find that the rocket reaches a maximum altitude of about 1930 m.

(c) In part (a), we found the time it takes for the rocket to hit the ground (relative to $y_2(t)$ ) to be about 32.6 s. Plug this into $v_2(t)$ to find the velocity before it crashes:

$v_2(32.6\,\mathrm s)=-196\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

That is, the rocket has a velocity of 196 m/s in the downward direction as it hits the ground.

HI!

Conventional vehicles use gasoline or diesel to power an internal combustion engine. Hybrids also use an internal combustion engine—and can be fueled like normal cars—but have an electric motor and battery, and can be partially or wholly powered by electricity. Also pollute less and save the drivers money.

Good Day.

What is the mass of 5 moles of gold

Serhud [2]

First of all, we know that one mole is equal to the atomic number of an element.

The atomic number of gold is 197.0g Au

And we need to find 5 moles.

5 * 197.0 g Au = 985.0g

Grams is used to measure mass.

Answer: 985.0g
