Answer:

The mechanical advantage of a lever is 4 means that the lever can lift a load which is four times greater than the applied effort.

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Answer:

It means...

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage of a machine is 4. Mechanical advantage MA is the ratio of output (generated by the machine) force to input (applied to the machine) force. So MA = 4 means that for example if you apply 100 N then your machine will multiply that force and generate 400 N.

The indices of refraction for violet light (λ = 400 nm) and red light (λ = 700 nm) in diamond are 2.46 and 2.41, respectively. A
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

0.42°

Explanation:

Using Snell's law of refraction which states that the ratio of the angle of sin of incidence to angle of sine of refraction is equal to a constant for a given pair of media. Mathematically,

Sin(i)/sin(r) = n

n is the refractive index of the medium

FOR VIOLET LIGHT:

n = 2.46

i = 51°

r = ?

To get r, we will use the Snell's law formula.

2.46 = sin51°/sinr

Sinr = sin51°/2.46

Sinr = 0.316

r = sin^-1(0.316)

rv = 18.42°

FOR RED LIGHT:

n = 2.41

i = 51°

r = ?

To get r, we will use the Snell's law formula.

2.41 = sin51°/sinr

Sinr = sin51°/2.41

Sinr = 0.323

r = sin^-1(0.323)

rd = 18.84°

The angular separation between these two colors of light in the refracted ray will be the difference between there angle of refraction.

Angular separation = rd - rv

= 18.84° - 18.42°

= 0.42°

You are an industrial engineer with a shipping company. As part of the package- handling system, a small box with mass 1.60 kg i
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a) V = 0.82m/s

b) Vmax = 0.985 m/s

Explanation:

By conservation of energy we know that:

Eo = Ef    \frac{m*V^{2}}{2}-\frac{K*Xmax^{2}}{2}=-Ff*Xmax

Solving for V we get:

V = 0.82 m/s

To find the maximum speed we will do the same to an intermediate point where the compression is X and the distance for the work donde by frictions is given by (Xmax - X) = (0.28m - X):

\frac{m*Vmax^{2}}{2}+\frac{K*X^{2}}{2}-\frac{K*Xmax^{2}}{2}=-Ff*(Xmax-X)

Then we have to solve for V, derive and equal zero in order to find position X. After solving the derivative we get:

X = 0.1m    Replacing this value into the equation for Vmax:

Vmax = 0.985m/s

Suppose you have two meter sticks, one made of steel and one made of invar (an alloy of iron and nickel), which are the same len
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

  • The difference in length for steel is 2.46 x 10⁻⁴ m
  • The difference in length for invar is 1.845 x 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

Given;

original length of steel, L₁ = 1.00 m

original length of invar, L₁ = 1.00 m

coefficients of volume expansion for steel, \gamma_{st.} =  3.6 × 10⁻⁵ /°C

coefficients of volume expansion for invar, \gamma_{in.} =  2.7 × 10⁻⁶ /°C

temperature rise in both meter stick, θ = 20.5°C

Difference in length, can be calculated as:

L₂ = L₁ (1 + αθ)

L₂  = L₁ + L₁αθ

L₂  - L₁ = L₁αθ

ΔL = L₁αθ

Where;

ΔL is difference in length

α is linear expansivity = \frac{\gamma}{3}

Difference in length, for steel at 20.5°C:

ΔL =  L₁αθ

Given;

L₁ = 1.00 m

θ = 20.5°C

\alpha = \frac{\gamma}{3} = \frac{3.6*10^{-5}}{3} = 1.2*10^{-5} /^oC

ΔL  = 1 x 1.2 x 10⁻⁵ x 20.5 = 2.46 x 10⁻⁴ m

Difference in length, for invar at 20.5°C:

ΔL =  L₁αθ

Given;

L₁ = 1.00 m

θ = 20.5°C

\alpha = \frac{\gamma}{3} = \frac{2.7*10^{-6}}{3} = 0.9*10^{-6}/^oC

ΔL  = 1 x 0.9 x 10⁻⁶ x 20.5 = 1.845 x 10⁻⁵ m

In a nuclear fusion reaction two 2H atoms are combined to produce one 4He.
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a)= 0.025602u

b) = 23.848MeV

c) N = 1.546 × 10¹³

Explanation:

The reaction is

²₁H   +   ²₁H   ⇄   ⁴₂H + Q

a) The mass difference is

Δm = 2m(²₁H) - m (⁴₂H)

       = 2(2.014102u) - 4.002602u

        = 0.025602u

b) Use the Einstein mass energy relation ship

The enegy  release is the mass difference times 931.5MeV/U

E = (0.025602) (931.5)

   = 23.848MeV

c)

the number of reaction need per seconds is

N = Q/E

     = 59W/ 23.848MeV

  = \frac{59}{(23.848 \times 10^6 )(1.6 \times 10^1^9) } \\\\= 1.546 \times 10^1^3

N = 1.546 × 10¹³

g In 1956, Frank Lloyd Wright proposed the construction of a mile-high building in Chicago. Suppose the building had been constr
Lorico [155]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to acceleration due to gravity, as well as Newton's second law that describes the weight based on its mass and the acceleration of the celestial body on which it depends.

In other words the acceleration can be described as

a = \frac{GM}{r^2}

Where

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius of Earth

This equation can be differentiated with respect to the radius of change, that is

\frac{da}{dr} = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}

da = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr

At the same time since Newton's second law we know that:

F_w = ma

Where,

m = mass

a =Acceleration

From the previous value given for acceleration we have to

F_W = m (\frac{GM}{r^2} ) = 600N

Finally to find the change in weight it is necessary to differentiate the Force with respect to the acceleration, then:

dF_W = mda

dF_W = m(-2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr)

dF_W = -2(m\frac{GM}{r^2})(\frac{dr}{r})

dF_W = -2F_W(\frac{dr}{r})

But we know that the total weight (F_W) is equivalent to 600N, and that the change during each mile in kilometers is 1.6km or 1600m therefore:

dF_W = -2(600)(\frac{1.6*10^3}{6.37*10^6})

dF_W = -0.3N

Therefore there is a weight loss of 0.3N every kilometer.
