Answer:

(b) 1/sinƟ

Explanation:

A simple machine can be defined as a type of machine with no moving parts but can be used to perform work.

Basically, a simple machine allows for the transformation of energy into work. The six simple machines are; lever, wedge, pulley, screw, wheel and axle, and inclined plane.

Inclined plane is a simple machine set at an angle and then used to lift an object.

In Physics, the velocity ratio of a simple machine is calculated as a ratio of the distance moved by the effort to the vertical distance through which a load is raised.

Mathematically, the velocity ratio of an inclined plane of angle Ɵ, acting as a simple machine is given by the formula;

Velocity ratio (V.R) = 1/sinƟ

Basically, an increase in the angle of inclination (measured in degrees) of an inclined plane increases its velocity ratio.

Andrews [41]

Answer:

A) If you halve the wavelength, the electromagnetic radiation energy will double.

B) The energy of the electromagnetic radiation will halve if you halve the wavenumber.

C) When the frequency of the light is doubled, its energy will double.

Explanation:

The function for the light frequency is given as

The energy supplied to each electron is doubled by halving the wavelength, nearly doubling its kinetic energy by two after it is free from the metal. It is important to remember that for a given period of time, the number of electrons ejected will remain constant.

What are the disadvantages of wind power?
jek_recluse [69]
<span>Wind power is produced from the wind turbines or sails that uses air flow to convert it into mechanical power. It is an alternative to fossil fuel burning, it is all around, renewable, clean, produces no greenhouse gases and uses little land. The advantages of wind power have been greatly praised by many. However, it has disadvantages. Wind power especially at farm is noisy and may spoil the view for their neighboring people. Also the amount of electricity depends on the strength of the wind. If no wind is around, no electricity is produced. </span>

If one of the masses of the Atwood's machine below is 2.9 kg, what should be the other mass so that the displacement of either m
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

2.59 Kg, 3.25 Kg

Explanation:

Acceleration can be found using equation

s=0.5at^{2} where s is the release distance, a is acceleration and t is time

Making a the subject of the formula

a=\frac {2S}{t^{2}}

Substituting 0.28 for s and time for 1 second

a=\frac {2*0.28m}{(1s)^{2}=0.56 m/s^{2}

Acceleration formula for the Atwood machine is given by

a=\frac {g(m1-m2)}{m1+m2}  where m1 and m2 are first and second masses respectively

Two situations are possible

When m1>m2

Assuming m1 is 3.7kg which is heavier than m2

Substituting a for 0.56 m/s^{2}  and m1 as 2.9Kg and taking acceleration due to gravity as 9.81 m/s^{2}  

0.56 m/s^{2}=\frac {9.81 m/s^{2}*(2.9Kg-m2)}{2.9Kg+m2}  

(0.56 m/s^{2})*(2.9Kg+m2)=9.81(2.9Kg-m2)  

(0.56 m/s^{2}+9.81)*m2=(9.81*2.9)-(2.9*0.56)  

10.37m2=28.449-1.624

10.37m2=26.825

m2=\frac {26.825}{10.37}=2.5867888138  

m2=2.59 Kg

<u>When m1<m2</u>

a=\frac {g(m2-m1)}{m1+m2}  

Then m1=2.9Kg hence

0.56 m/s^{2}=\frac {9.81(m2-2.9Kg)}{2.9Kg+m2}

(0.56 m/s^{2})*(2.9Kg+m2)=9.81 m/s^{2}*(m2-2.9Kg)

(0.56 m/s^{2}-9.81 m/s^{2})*m2=(-2.9 Kg*9.81 m/s^{2})-(2.9 Kg*0.56 m/s^{2})  

-9.25m2=-28.449-1.624=-30.073

9.25m2=30.073

m2=\frac {30.073}{9.25}=3.2511351351

m2=3.25 Kg
