Given :

An inclined plane is used to lift a box into a moving truck. The ramp is 6 m long and 1.5 m.

To Find :

The mechanical advantage of the inclined plane.

Solution :

Mechanical advantage, M.A of an inclined plane is given by :

M.A = \dfrac{\text{Length of slope}}{\text{Height of plane}}

Putting given values in above equation, we get :

M.A = \dfrac{6 \ m}{1.5 \ m}\\\\M.A = 4

Therefore, the mechanical advantage of the inclined plane is 4.

Take for example driving by with a cake in your hand, then dropping it while going 30 mph. It will not drop directly down, it will gradually go in the direction you were driving while falling.
This is true I believe, if I'm interpreting correctly.

timama [110]

Answer:

c. 48 cm/s/s

Explanation:

Anna Litical and Noah Formula are experimenting with the effect of mass and net force upon the acceleration of a lab cart. They determine that a net force of F causes a cart with a mass of M to accelerate at 48 cm/s/s. What is the acceleration value of a cart with a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F?

from newtons second law of motion ,

which states that change in momentum is directly proportional to the force applied.

we can say that

f=m(v-u)/t

a=acceleration

t=time

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

since a=(v-u)/t

f=m*a

force applied is F

m =mass of the object involved

a is the acceleration of the object involved

f=m*48.........................1

in the second case ;a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F

f=ma

a=2F/2M

substituting equation 1

a=2(M*48)/2M

a=. 48 cm/s/s

A transformer is to be used to provide power for a computer disk drive that needs 6.0 V (rms) instead of the 120 V (rms) from th
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

N_{2}=20 turns

Explanation:

The given case is a step down transformer as we need to reduce 120 V to 6 V.

number of turns on primary coil N_{P}= 400

current delivered by  secondary coil  I_{S}= 500 mA

output voltage = 6 V (rms)

we know that

I_{p}=\frac{V_{out}}{V_{in}\times I_{s}}

putting values we get

I_{p}=\frac{6}{120\times 0.5}

I_{p}= 0.1 A

to calculate number of turns in secondary

\frac{N_{2}}{400} =\frac{6}{120}

therefore, N_{2}=20 turns

DESCRIBE floods and droughts. What are their effects? EXPLAIN how they can be prevented
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

<u>EFFECTS: ( doughts)</u>

  1. There would be less water in the river for you and other people who live along the river to use.
  2. If we use too much water during times of normal rainfall, we might not have enough water when a drought happens.

<u>EFFECTS:( FLOODS)</u>

  1. The immediate impacts of flooding include loss of human life, damage to property, destruction of crops, loss of livestock, and deterioration of health conditions owing to waterborne diseases.
  2. power plants, roads and bridges are damaged and disrupted, some economic activities may come to a standstill, people are forced to leave their homes and normal life is disrupted.

How to prevent from flooding is :

  1. Construct buildings above flood levels.
  2. Tackle climate change

How to prevent from droughts :

  1. drought trends that may occur based on statistical and actual weather forecasts.
  2. In the U.S., the U.S. Drought Monitor provides a day-by-day visual of the drought conditions around the country.

Collar P slides outward at a constant relative speed along rod AB, which rotates counterclockwise with a constant angular veloci
diamong [38]

Answer:

a= 23.65 ft/s²

Explanation:

given

r= 14.34m

ω=3.65rad/s

Ф=Ф₀ + ωt

t = Ф - Ф₀/ω

= (98-0)×\frac{\pi}{180}/3.65

98°= 1.71042 rad

1.7104/3.65

t= 0.47 s

r₁(not given)

assuming r₁ =20 in

r₁ = r₀ + ut(uniform motion)

u = r₁ - r₀/t

r₀ = 14.34 in= 1.195 ft

r₁ = 20 in = 1.67 ft

= (1.667 - 1.195)/0.47

0.472/0.47

u= 1.00ft/s

acceleration at collar p

a=rω²

= 1.67 × 3.65²

a = 22.25ft/s²

acceleration of collar p related to the rod = 0

coriolis acceleration = 2ωu

= 2× 3.65×1 = 7.3 ft/s²

acceleration of collar p

= 22.5j + 0 + 7.3i

√(22.5² + 7.3²)

the magnitude of the acceleration of the collar P just as it reaches B in ft/s²

a= 23.65 ft/s²
