the correct answer is B. 1.27
Mechanical advantage of a lever is simply the ratio of the effort arm to the load arm.Effort arm is the distance from the pivot to the point of application of force while load arm is the distance of the lord from the pivot.
therefore, in this question, the effort arm is 0.28m while the load arm is 0.22 m. MA is calculated as follows: MA=effort arm/load arm
=0.28m/0.22m=1.27
Answer: 500 Watts
Explanation:
Power
is the speed with which work
is done. Its unit is Watts (
), being
.
Power is mathematically expressed as:
(1)
Where
is the time during which work
is performed.
On the other hand, the Work
done by a Force
refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path. It is a scalar magnitude, and its unit in the International System of Units is the Joule (like energy). Therefore, 1 Joule is the work done by a force of 1 Newton when moving an object, in the direction of the force, along 1 meter (
).
When the applied force is constant and the direction of the force and the direction of the movement are parallel, the equation to calculate it is:
(2)
In this case, we have the following data:



So, let's calculate the work done by Peter and then find how much power is involved:
From (2):
(3)
(4)
Substituting (4) in (1):
(5)
Finally:
Then the maximum height of the catapult will be 69.78 meters.
<h3>What is kinematics?</h3>
The study of motion without considering the mass and the cause of the motion. The equation of motion is given below.
v = u + at
s = ut + (1/2)at²
v² = u² + 2as
A catapult can project a projectile at a speed as high as 37.0 m/s. (a) if air resistance can be ignored.
a = - 9.81 m/s²
u = 37 m/s
v = 0
s = h
Then the maximum height of the catapult will be given by the third equation.
v² = u² + 2as
0² = 37² - 2 × 9.81 × h
h = 37² / (2 × 9.81)
h = 69.78 meters
Then the maximum height of the catapult will be 69.78 meters.
