Answer:

2.7

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) of box = 100 Kg

Length (L) of ramp = 4 m

Height (H) of ramp = 1.5 m

Mechanical advantage (MA) of ramp =?

Mechanical advantage of a ramp is simply defined as the ratio of the length of the ramp to the height of the ramp. Mathematically, it is given by:

Mechanical Advantage = Lenght / height

MA= L/H

With the above formula, we can obtain the mechanical advantage of the ramp as follow:

Length (L) of ramp = 4 m

Height (H) of ramp = 1.5 m

Mechanical advantage (MA) of ramp =?

MA = 4/1.5

MA = 2.7

Therefore, the mechanical advantage of the ramp is 2.7

The original width was 94.71 cm
The area decreased 33.1% 

The equation for the final size is 
2X^2 = 1.2 m^2 
X^2 - 0.6 m^2 
X^2 = 10000 * .6 cm 
X = 77.46 cm (this is the width) 

The length is 2 * 77.46 = 154.92 cm 

The original length was 154.92 + 34.5 = 189.42 cm 
The original width was 189.42 / 2 = 94.71 cm 

The original area was 94.71 * 189.92 = 17939.9 cm^2 
The new area is 79.46 * 154.92 = 12000.1 cm^2 

The difference between the original and current area is 17939.9 - 12000.1 = 5939.86 cm^2 

The percentage the area decreased is 5939.86 ' 17939.9 = 33.1%

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

(a) 42.28°

(b) 37.08°

Explanation:

From the principle of refraction of light, when light wave travels from one medium to another medium, we have:

$\frac{n_{b} }{n_{a} }$ = sinθ $_{a}$ /sinθ $_{b}$

In the given problem, we are given the refractive indices of light which are parallel and perpendicular to the axis of the optical lens as 1.4864 and 1.6584 respectively.

For critical angle θ $_{a}$ = θ $_{c}$ , θ $_{b}$ = 90°; $n_{b} = 1$
