1. Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA): 9
Explanation:
For a wheel and axle system like the steering wheel, the IMA is given by:

where
is the radius of the wheel
is the radius of the axle
For the steering wheel of the problem, we see that
and
, so the IMA is

2. Efficiency: 88.9%
Explanation:
The efficiency of a system is defined as the ratio between the AMA (actual mechanical advantage) and the IMA:

In this problem, AMA=8 and IMA=9, so the efficiency is

The velocity is given by:
V = √(Vx²+Vy²)
V = velocity, Vx = horizontal velocity, Vy = vertical velocity
Given values:
Vx = 6m/s, Vy = 12m/s
Plug in and solve for V:
V = √(6²+12²)
V = 13.42m/s
Now find the direction:
θ = tan⁻¹(Vy/Vx)
θ = angle of velocity off horizontal, Vy = vertical velocity, Vx = horizontal velocity
Given values:
Vx = 6m/s, Vy = 12m/s
Plug in and solve for θ:
θ = tan⁻¹(12/6)
θ = 63.4°
The resultant velocity is 13.42m/s at an angle of 63.4° off the horizontal.
Answer:
4.29 millimeters
Explanation:
Bats emit ultrasound waves: in air, ultrasound waves travel at a speed of

The frequency of the waves emitted by this bat is:

Therefore we can find the wavelength of the wave emitted by the bat by using the relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength:

Answer:
(a) The force between them quadruples
Explanation:
According to coulomb's law, initial force between the two charged objects is given as;

where;
k is coulomb's constant
q₁ is the charge on the first object
q₂ is the charge on the second object
r is the distance between the two objects
When the charges on both objects are doubled, then;
q₁ = 2q₁
q₂ = 2q₂
Force between the two charged objects will become

Therefore, the force between them quadruples
Answer: 62 μT
Explanation:
Given
Length of rod, l = 1.33 m
Velocity of rod, v = 3.19 m/s
Induced emf, e = 0.263*10^-3 V
Using Faraday's law, the induced emf of a rod can be gotten by the formula
e = blv where,
e = induced emf of the rod
b = magnetic field of the rod
l = length of the rod
v = velocity of the rod. On substituting, we have
0.263*10^-3 = b * 1.33 * 3.19
0.263*10^-3 = b * 4.2427
b = 0.263*10^-3 / 4.2427
b = 0.0000620 T
b = 62 μT
Thus, the strength of the magnetic field is 62 μT
