Answer:
1. 3.75
2. 1.39 ft
Explanation:
The mechanical advantage is the ratio of the resistance force to the effort force.
MA = 75 lb / 20 lb
MA = 3.75
The sum of the torques about the fulcrum equals zero.
∑τ = Iα
(20 lb) (5.2 ft) − (75 lb) x = 0
x = 1.39 ft
Round as needed.
Answer:
53 sec / cycle
Explanation:
Displayed red time = 35 seconds
Start up lost time = 2 seconds
Yellow time = 4 seconds
Red time = 1 second
Total lost time L = 2n + r
L = lost time
n = number of phase
R = red time
35+2+4+4*1
= 45
L = 2x4+45
= 53 sec/cycle
The total lost time is typically calculated as 53 seconds per cycle
Answer:
ΔK.E. = - 142.72 kJ
Explanation:
mass = 884 kg
initial velocity = 68 km/h = 68 \times \frac {5}{18} = 18.89 m/s
final velocity = 0 m/s
height = 69 m
change in kinetic energy :
ΔK.E. = 
ΔK.E. =
ΔK.E. =-142,716.05 J
ΔK.E. =-142.72 kJ
hence change in kinetic energy of the automobile is -142.72 kJ
