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

A 5,000 kg satellite is orbiting the Earth in a circular path. The height of the satellite above the surface of the Earth is 800

Arada [10]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

m = 5000 kg, h = 800 km = $0.8 \times 10^{6} m$

$R_{e} = 6.37 \times 10^{6} m$ , r = R + h = $7.17 \times 10^{6} m$

$M_{e} = 5.98 \times 10^{24}$ kg, G = $6.67 \times 10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}$

As we know that,

$\frac{mv^{2}}{r} = \frac{GmM_{e}}{r^{2}}$

v = $\sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{2}}}$

And, it is known that formula to calculate angular velocity is as follows.

$\omega = \frac{v}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{3}}}$

v = $\sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{3}}}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2} \times 5.98 \times 10^{-24} kg^{-2}}{(7.17 \times 10^{6} m)^{3}}}$

= $1.0402 \times 10^{-3} rad/s$

Thus, we can conclude that speed of the satellite is $1.0402 \times 10^{-3} rad/s$ .

What is the separation distance, in meters, between masses m1 = 15 x 107 kg and m2 = 62 x 107 kg when the gravitational force be

nalin [4]

Answer:

94.1 m

Explanation:

From Coulombs law,

F = Gm1m2/r²................... Equation 1

where F = force, m1 = first mass, m2 = second mass, G = universal constant, r = distance of separation.

Make r the subject of the equation,

r = √(Gm1m2/F)................. Equation 2

Given: F = 7×10² N, m1 = 15×10⁷ kg, m2 = 62×10⁷ kg,

Constant: G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Substitute into equation 2

r = √( 6.67×10⁻¹¹×15×10⁷×62×10⁷/7×10²)

r √(886.16×10)

r √(88.616×10²)

r = 9.41×10

r = 94.1 m.

Hence the distance of separation = 94.1 m

A race car circles 10 times around a circular 8.0-km track in 20 min.

Otrada [13]

Find the average speed and the average velocity.

Average speed = distance / time

distance = 10 x 8000 m = 80,000 m
time = 20 min * 60 s/min = 1200 s

Average speed = 80,000 m / 1200 s = 66.67 m/s

Average velocity = displacement / time

Given that the race car made complete circles the final poin is the same initial point, then its displacement is zero and the average velocity is zero too.

Allisa [31]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel burning should be minimized at all cost. This is because the gases gotten when the carbons from hydrocarbons react with air(oxygen). This gas erodes the ozone layer which makes the melting of ice caps faster due to increased amount of heat radiations on the earth. This is the only best and permanent solution to the reduction of the amount of heat rays on the earth which is a global problem.Substances which reflects back the sunrays could also be put into the sea to prevent the melting of the ice caps.
