Question

1 .

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Efficiency

2. Kinetic energy

3. Pulley

4. Screw

5. Wedge

Explanation:

1. Efficiency: the ratio of work output to work input or the ratio of actual mechanical advantage (AMA) to ideal mechanical advantage (IMA).

Mathematically, the efficiency of a machine is given by the formula;

$Efficiency = \frac {MA}{IMA} * 100$

2. Kinetic energy: the energy of a moving object. Kinetic energy (KE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

$K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}$

Where;

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

3. Pulley: a grooved wheel over which a rope can move. It is made up of a wheel and rope which allows force to be multiplied such as in a drawing well.

4. Screw: a double-sided inclined plane. It is held in position and then used to tighten two or more objects together.

5. Wedge: an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. It can be used to split objects into halves.
