Marat540 [252]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It will require a force of 1/5, answer A.

Explanation:

In the attached image we can see an example of an array of pulleys that will lift a 100 kg-f load.

If we analyze pulleys A,B, and C as in the image we can check a force in the cable of 20kg-f.

In the pulley D we have three forces of 20 kg-f each and those forces plus the forces in the pulley B, sum a total of 100 kg-f (60+40). This matches the mechanical advantage (100/5) = 20 kg-f

The potential difference between two equipotential lines 5.0 mm apart has a value of 1.2 V, calculate the electric field value.
jonny [76]

Answer:

The electric field value is 240 N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 5.0 mm

Potential difference = 1.2 V

We need to calculate the electric field value

Using formula of potential difference

\Delta V=Ed

E=\dfrac{\Delta V}{d}

Where, E = electric field

V = potential difference

d = distance

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{1.2}{5.0\times10^{-3}}

E= 240\ N/C

Hence, The electric field value is 240 N/C
