1. Which of the following explains why a bicycle uses the pedals as a lever to move the heavy rider along the sidewalk?
2 answers:
Answer:
A. Reduces the effort force
Explanation:
In a general form, an effort force is a force applied on a point of a machine to do work (move something, for example) and overcome a resistance force. In this context, the effort force is the one which the rider applies with his feet on the pedal, to rotate subsequently: the crank, the chain wheel, the chain, and the wheels. The resistance force is the force caused by the friction with the air. Check the file I attach with the parts of a bicycle.
The force applied on the pedal creates a torque, which is transmitted (through the crank) to the chain wheel for it to rotate. Without that torque, the chain wheel couldn't rotate.
The reason why the bicycle uses a pedal and a crank is because they ease the application of that torque. Thanks to the length of the crank, is possible to obtain great amounts of torque (capable of moving a bicycle with a person on it) with the application of small effort force in the pedals.
Now, let's examine the four possible correct answers.
A. ✓ reduces the effort force: Yes, as stated in the last paragraph of the explanation, the pedal and the crank make possible to apply only a small amount of force on that pedal.
B. X increases the effort force: No, this would contradict to the said in the previous paragraph.
C. X reduces the resistance force: for the same velocity of the rider, the resistance force is the same and doesn't depend directly on the pedals.
D. increases the resistance force: again, the resistance force doesn't change for the same velocity

The distance covered is 4d.
<h3>What is the distance?</h3>- Distance is a measure of how far apart two objects or locations are using numbers.
- The distance can refer to a physical length or an estimate based on other factors in both daily language and physics (e.g. "two counties over").
- The terms "distance from A to B" and "distance from B to A" are frequently used interchangeably.
- A distance function or metric is a technique to describe what it means for components of space to be "near to" or "far away" from each other in mathematics.
- It is a generalization of the idea of physical distance. Distance is a non-numerical unit of measurement in psychology and the social sciences; psychological distance is the separation of an object from itself along dimensions including time, space, and isolation.
We know that
the magnetic field is inversely proportional to distance.

Answer:
Price=$7×10⁷
Explanation:
Step 1: Estimate the volume of the pile,
Step 2: Multiply it by the density to get its mass
Step 2: Then multiply the mass by the price per gram to get the total price
So
The average pile dimensions are=45.7×45×172.7
Price=m×$10
Price=(7×10⁶)×$10
Price=$7×10⁷
