Answer:
9.2 amperes
Explanation:
Ohm's law states that the voltage V across a conductor of resistance R is given by
Here, voltage V is proportional to the current I.
For voltage, unit is volts (V)
For current, unit is amperes (A)
For resistance, unit is Ohms (Ω)
Put R = 12.5 and V = 115 in V=RI
Answer:
IMA = 2.5 metres
EFFICIENCY = 80%
Explanation:
The AMA of a machine is referred to as the Actual Mechanical Advantage of a machine, calculated as the ratio of the output to the input force.
The Ideal Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the input distance to the output distance.
From the diagram, the input distance which is also the distance moved by effort = 5metres
The load distance (output distance) = 2 metres
IMA = INPUT DISTANCE / OUTPUT DISTANCE
IMA = 5metres / 2 metres = 2.5 meters
Efficiency is the ratio of AMA TO IMA
AMA = 2, IMA = 2.5
EFFICIENCY = AMA / IMA
EFFICIENCY = (2 / 2.5) × 100%= 0.8 × 100%
EFFICIENCY = 80%
