Answer:
Mechanical advantage = 4
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance of effort, de = 8m
Distance of ramp, dr = 2m
To find the mechanical advantage;
Mechanical advantage = de/dr
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Mechanical advantage = 8/2
Mechanical advantage = 4
Answer:
17.1
Explanation:
The distance ahead, of the deer when it is sighted by the park ranger, d = 20 m
The initial speed with which the ranger was driving, u = 11.4 m/s
The acceleration rate with which the ranger slows down, a = (-)3.80 m/s² (For a vehicle slowing down, the acceleration is negative)
The distance required for the ranger to come to rest, s = Required
The kinematic equation of motion that can be used to find the distance the ranger's vehicle travels before coming to rest (the distance 's'), is given as follows;
v² = u² + 2·a·s
∴ s = (v² - u²)/(2·a)
Where;
v = The final velocity = 0 m/s (the vehicle comes to rest (stops))
Plugging in the values for 'v', 'u', and 'a', gives;
s = (0² - 11.4²)/(2 × -3.8) = 17.1
The distance the required for the ranger's vehicle to com to rest, s = 17.1 (meters).

To solve this problem, apply the concepts related to Hooke's law. From there we will find the spring constant. Subsequently, applying Energy balance, which includes gravitational potential energy, elastic potential energy and kinetic energy, we will bury the system's energy. Finally, using the displacement expression for the simple harmonic movement, we will find the expression that describes the system.
PART A) The expression for the spring force is

Here,
k = Spring constant
x = Displacement
Rearranging to find the spring constant we have that



PART B ) The gravitational potential energy acts on the spring holds the cart is zero. Since cart is placed in the equilibrium position. The kinetic energy of the cart is zero. Therefore the expression for the total energy is,




PART C) The expression for the angular frequency is



The equation for the motion of the cart is

Replacing,
