Blizzard [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Efficiency can be increase by using rollers in conjunction with the inclined plane. Wedge. The wedge is an adaptation of the inclined plane. It can be used to raise a heavy load over a short distance or to split a log.

Explanation:

Hope it helps

Light in a vacuum travels at a constant speed of 3x10^8 m/s. If the moons average distance from the earth is 38776106 km how lon
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer: 258.3 s

Explanation:

The speed s is given by the following equation:

s=\frac{D}{t}

Where:

s=3(10)^{8} m/s is the speed of light in vacuum

D=2(38776106 km \frac{1000 m}{1 km})=7.75(10)^{10} m is the double of the distance between Earth and Moon, since the beam of light travels from Earth to the Moon and back to Earth again.

t is the time it takes to the beam of light to travel the mentioned distance

Isolating t and solving with the given information:

t=\frac{D}{s}

t=\frac{7.75(10)^{10} m}{3(10)^{8} m/s}

Finally:

t=258.3 s \approx 258 s

sertanlavr [38]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The thermosphere has less air pressure than the mesosphere <span>because the farther away you are from the surface of the earth the lesser amount of gases present.</span>

Using a 2.44kg sledge hammer, a railroad worker drives a 0.55kg spike into a railroad tie. The sledge hits the spike with a spee
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

1547.6 J

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy, the sum of initial and final energy is the same. Energy can only be transformed into other forms but can't be created nor lost

Initial kinetic energy of the hammer system is given by

KE_i=0.5mv^{2} where m is mass of the body and v is the velocity

Substituting m for mass of hammer which is 2.44 Kg and v for 62 m/s

KE_i=0.5*2.44 Kg*(62 m/s)^{2}=4689.68 J

Since the hammer comes to rest, the final kinetic energy is zero since it's velocity is zero

KE_f=0 J

Change in kinetic energy is given by

\triangle KE= KE_f-KE_i hence 0-4689.68  J=-4689.68  J

Change in total internal energy is given by

\triangle PE-\triangle KE and in this case the change in potential energy is zero

\triangle PE-\triangle KE=0--4689.68 J=4689.68 J

Since only 0.33 of this energy is converted hence

0.33\times4689.68 J=1547.5944 J\approx 1547.6 J
