4 0

Answer:

Option D

MA=5

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage is the  the ratio of the output force to the  input force hence

MA=\frac {Effort arm length}{Load arm length}

Substituting 15 inches for the effort arm length and 3 inches for the load arm length then we obtain the mechanical advantage as

MA=\frac {15}{3}=5

What is the main determining factor in defining boundaries between layers of earth's atmosphere?
konstantin123 [22]
The main determining factor in defining boundaries between layers of earth's atmosphere would be temperature changes in these layers. Temperature is one essential property that varies in the atmosphere. Based from this variation, the atmosphere is divided into four major layers and further to three smaller layers -  troposphere, tropopause, the stratosphere,  stratopause, the mesosphere, mesopause, and the thermosphere.The troposphere is the layer that is nearest to the surface of the Earth. It is the part where humans, plants and animals survive. Also, it is the warmest layer of the atmosphere. And as we go higher the atmosphere, the temperature would drop making it much cooler.
