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

Sladkaya [172]

The main difference between the model of the atom proposed by Greek philosophers and the model proposed centuries later by Dalton is that the Greek one was mainly speculative and philosophical - it wasn't based on real evidence, but on their suggestions and thoughts about the matter. On the other hand, Dalton had the means to prove his theory using viable evidence, not just speculations.

Given: G = 6.672 × 10−11 N · m2 /kg2 Io, a satellite of Jupiter, has an orbital period of 1.24 days and an orbital radius of 4.1

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Mass of Jupiter = 4.173×10^15kg

Explanation:

Using Kepler's 3rd law, it states that the orbital period T is related to the distance,r as:

T^2 = GM/4 pi × r^3

Where G = universal gravitational constant

r = radius

M = masd of jupiter

Rearranging the formular to make M the subject of formular

T^2 × 4 pi = G M × r^3

(T^2 × 4 pi) / (G× r^3) = M

(1.24^2 × 4 × 3.142) /(6.672×10^-11)(4.11×10^8)^3

M = 19.32 /6.672×10^-11)(4.11×10^8)^3

M = 19.32 / 4.63 ×10^15

M = 4.173×10^15kg
