A mover uses a ramp to load a crate of nails onto a truck. The crate, which must be lifted 1.5 m from the street to the bed of t

he truck, is pushed along the length of the ramp. If the ramp is 4.5 m long and friction between the ramp and crate can be ignored, what is the mechanical advantage of the ramp?

Answer:

<h2>3</h2>

Explanation:

Using the efficiency formula. Efficiency = MA/VR * 100%

MA = Mechanical Advantage

VR = velocity ratio = \frac{distance\ moved\ by\ effort}{distance\ moved\ by\ load}

Distance moved by effort = 4.5m

distance moved by load = 1.5m

VR = 4.5/1.5 =3

Assuming efficiency is 100% (since friction can be ignored)

100% = MA/3 * 100%

1 = MA/3

MA = 3*1

MA = 3

Mechanical Advantage of the ramp is 3

Objects in space are moving at a constant velocity in a straight line.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by a net positive or negative force.

For answer A. If the object were to be in an orbit, it would inevitably accelerate due to it being acted on by the gravitational force from the object it is orbiting. At different points in the orbit, the object will move at different speeds and continuously transfer between kinetic and potential energy.

For answer B. The object would would not stop their motion. In order for the object to lose energy, it would have to transfer it through friction or through its interaction with a gravitational field.

For answer D. No energy is "required" to maintain constant motion unless the object is willingly fighting against a resistive force like friction or a graviational well.

Find the mass of a 52.2N bucket.​
Goshia [24]

Answer:

m = 5.22 kg

Explanation:

The force acting on the bucket is 52.2 N.

We need to find the mass of the bucket.

The force acting on the bucket is given by :

F = mg

g is acceleration due to gravity

m is mass

m=\dfrac{F}{g}\\\\m=\dfrac{52.2}{10}\\\\=5.22\ kg

So, the mass of the bucket is 5.22 kg.

Explain why cooler stars are red and hotter stars are blue
sergey [27]
More cool stars produce much of their light in the red part of the spectrum, so you see them, and bam, the color red. More hot stars, however, produce much more of their light in the green and or yellow spectrums, with much more tinier amounts of red / blue. This balance of the colors, your eye, sees simply as white. The more hot something is, the greater frequency of radiation it produces! Blue light has a higher frequency than red light, so the stars that glow red are cooler, than the stars that glow blue. :)

Hope this helped!
