Answer: When a liquid substance is poured into a vessel, it takes the shape of the vessel, and, as long as the substance stays in the liquid state, it will remain inside the vessel. Furthermore, when a liquid is poured from one vessel to another, it retains its volume (as long as there is no vaporization or change in temperature) but not its shape.

Explanation: A solid has a definite shape and volume. A liquid has a definite volume, but takes the shape of its container. A gas lacks either a defined shape or volume. Plasma is similar to a gas in that its particles are very far apart, but a gas is electrically neutral and plasma has a charge.

The ideal mechanical advantage of a pulley system is equal to the?
marishachu [46]

Answer: The correct answer is "Number of rope segments supporting the load".

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage: It is defined as the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied on the machine. The ideal mechanical advantage of a machines is mechanical advantage in the absence of friction.

The ideal mechanical advantage of a pulley system is equal to the number of rope segments which is supporting the load. More the rope segments, It is more helpful to do the lifting the work.

It means that less force is needed for this task to complete.

Therefore, the correct option is (C).

A pendulum has 294 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
baherus [9]

Newton's law of conservation states that energy of an isolated system remains a constant. It can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to the other.


Implying the above law of conservation of energy in the case of pendulum we can conclude that at the bottom of the swing the entire potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy. Also the potential energy is zero at this point.


Mathematically also potential energy is represented as


Potential energy= mgh


Where m is the mass of the pendulum.


g is the acceleration due to gravity


h is the height from the bottom z the ground.


At the bottom of the swing,the height is zero, hence the potential energy is also zero.


The kinetic energy is represented mathematically as


Kinetic energy= 1/2 mv^2


Where m is the mass of the pendulum


v is the velocity of the pendulum


At the bottom the pendulum has the maximum velocity. Hence the kinetic energy is maximum at the bottom.


Energy can neither be created e destroyed. It can only be transferred from one form to another. Implying this law and the above explainations we conclude that at the bottom of the pendulum,the potential energy=0 and the kinetic energy=294J as the entire potential energy is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom.

When tightening a bolt, you push perpendicularly on a wrench with a force of 165 N at a distance of 0.140 m from the center of t
choli [55]

Answer:

Part a)

\tau = 23.1 Nm

Part b)

\tau = 17.05 Foot pound force

Explanation:

As we know that torque is defined as the product of force and its perpendicular distance from reference point

so here we have

\tau = \vec r \times \vec F

now we have

\tau = (0.140)(165)

\tau = 23.1 Nm

Part b)

Now we know the conversion as

1 meter = 3.28 foot

1 N = 0.225 Lb force

now we have

\tau = 23.1 Nm

\tau = 23.1 (0.225 Lb)(3.28 foot)

\tau = 17.05 Foot pound force
