NikAS [45]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

the mechanical advantage David had when using the pulley is 2.

Explanation:

Given;

load moved by David, L = 350 N

effort applied by David, E = 175 N

The mechanical advantage David had when using the pulley is calculated as;

M.A = \frac{Load}{Effort} \\\\M.A = \frac{350}{175} \\\\M.A = 2

Therefore, the mechanical advantage David had when using the pulley is 2.

The earth has about 80 times the mass of the earth's moon. The gravitational force exerted on the moon by the earth has what rel
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Both forces are the same.

Explanation:

The problem states that:

m_e = 80*m_m

The force exerted on the moon by earth is given by:

F_m=\frac{K*m_e*m_m}{d^2}   where K is the gravitational constant, and d is the separation distance between the earth and the moon.

The force exerted on the earth by moon is given by:

F_e=\frac{K*m_m*m_e}{d^2}   where K is the gravitational constant, and d is the separation distance between the earth and the moon.

The relation is therefore:

F_m/F_e = \frac{K*m_e*m_m/d^2}{K*m_m*m_e/d^2}=1

As you can see, they are the same.

Two blocks of masses M and 2M are initially traveling at the same speed v but in the opposite directions. They collide and stick
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Two masses M and 2 M with velocity v in opposite direction

After collision they stick together

Initial momentum

P_i=Mv-2Mv

final momentum

P_f=3Mv'

Conserving momentum

P_i=P_f

-Mv=3Mv'

v'=\frac{v}{3}

i.e. system moves towards the direction of 2M mass

Initial kinetic Energy K_1=\frac{1}{2}Mv^2+\frac{1}{2}2Mv^2

K_1=\frac{3}{2}Mv^2

Final Kinetic Energy K_2=\frac{1}{2}\cdot (3M)\cdot (\frac{v}{3})^2=\frac{3}{18}Mv^2

loss of Energy=K_1-K_2

=\frac{3}{2}Mv^2-\frac{3}{18}Mv^2

=\frac{4}{3}Mv^2

Answer:

B.C. D. G.

Explanation:

A vector quantity, has both magnitude and direction. A tip to remember is if you can add a direction to it! You wouldnt say 30 pounds north, but you would say 30 mph north.

Energy is transferred through a solid
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy through direct contact between particles of a substance, without moving the particles to a new location. Usually occurs in solids. When heat is supplied to one end, molecules at that end start to move more quickly.
