There is no gain in mechanical advantage in a single fixed pulley but they are used​

Physics
1 answer:
yan [13]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A single fixed pulley is used to lift load by changing the direction of the lifting force. Even though a single fixed pulley has no mechanical gain in that, the effort applied is greater than the load, it is preferred in use since you do not have to pull or push the pulley up and down.

1. Two forces act on a box as follows: F1 = 100 N at 01 = 170° and F2 = 75 N
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

a)  F = 64.30 N,  b) θ = 121.4º

Explanation:

Forces are vector quantities so one of the best methods to add them is to decompose each force and add the components

let's use trigonometry

Force F1

          sin 170 = F_{1y} / F₁

          cos 170 = F₁ₓ / F₁

          F_{1y} = F₁ sin 170

          F₁ₓ = F₁ cos 170

          F_{1y} = 100 sin 170 = 17.36 N

          F₁ₓ = 100 cos 170 = -98.48 N

Force F2

          sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂

          cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂

          F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30

          F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30

          F_{2y} = 75 sin 30 = 37.5 N

          F₂ₓ = 75 cos 30 = 64.95 N

the resultant force is

X axis

          Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ

          Fₓ = -98.48 +64.95

          Fₓ = -33.53 N

Y axis

         F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y}

         F_y = 17.36 + 37.5

         F_y = 54.86 N

a) the magnitude of the resultant vector

let's use Pythagoras' theorem

         F = Ra Fx ^ 2 + Fy²

         F = Ra 33.53² + 54.86²

         F = 64.30 N

b) the direction of the resultant

let's use trigonometry

        tan θ’= F_y / Fₓ

        θ'= tan^{-1}  \frac{F_y}{F_x}

        θ'= tan⁻¹ (54.86 / (33.53)

        θ’= 58.6º

this angle is in the second quadrant

The angle measured from the positive side of the x-axis is

        θ = 180 -θ'

        θ = 180- 58.6

        θ = 121.4º

Identify the row that contains two scalars and one vector quantity: Distance Acceleration Velocity Speed Mass Acceleration Dista
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Speed, mass and acceleration

Explanation:

A scalar quantity is a quantity that has only magnitude but no direction while a vector quantity has both magnitude and direction.

According to the question, the row that has two scalars and one vector is speed, mass and acceleration.

The two scalars in this row are speed and mass while the vector quantity there is the acceleration.

Acceleration has direction since it possess direction. A body accelerating will do so in a particular direction. Speed and mass doesn't possess any direction. Mass only specify the magnitude of the body but no clue as to which direction is the body moving towards.

Speed also only specify the

total distance covered with respect to time but not the direction of the direction.

Which sequence shows all the spectral colors of visible light arranged in an increasing order of their frequency? A. red, yellow
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The answer is B. red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet

Explanation:

Most textbooks have the acronym ROYGBV to express the order in which colors appear on the spectrum of light, indigo is included in your list, and that's not a problem, although it's not typical. This spectrum of light is the same order in which colors appear in rainbows.

Test populations are studied. Population one is found to obey the differential equation dy1/da=o.2y1 and the population two obey
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Population 1 indicates growth while Population 2 indicates a declining population

Explanation:

Here, using the given rate of change of the population, we want to determine which of the two is growing and which is declining

From the rate of change of both, we can determine this. Looking at the differential equation for the first one, we can see that it is of positive value. Looking at the differential equation for the second one. we can see it is of negative value

While a positive change rate indicates growth, a negative change rate will indicate otherwise

Hence, we can conclude that the one with a negative rate change will indicate a declining population
