8. An effort force of 15 Newtons is applied to an ideal pulley system to lift up a 16 Newton object. If the effort force is exer
1 answer:
Answer:
the distance that the object is raised above its initial position is 5.625 m.
Explanation:
Given;
applied effort, E = 15 N
load lifted by the ideal pulley system, L = 16 N
distance moved by the effort, d₁ = 6 m
let the distance moved by the object = d₂
For an ideal machine, the mechanical advantage is equal to the velocity ratio of the machine.
M.A = V.R
Therefore, the distance that the object is raised above its initial position is 5.625 m.

Answer:
Reactance
Explanation:
In an AC circuit, the capacitive reactance of a capacitor is given by:
where
f is the frequency of the AC current
C is the capacitance of the capacitor
The reactance of the capacitor tells somehow the "resistance" of the capacitor to the passage of current through it. In fact:
- When the frequency of the AC current is zero (this means, we are in regime of DC current), the reactance becomes infinite, and this is true because the capacitor does not let the current pass through it)
- When the frequency of the AC current tends to infinite, the reactance becomes zero, and this is true because in this case the current changes direction so fast that the capacitor has not enough time to "block" the current, so the current almost no feels the presence of the capacitor.
