Jill applies a force of 250 N to a machine. The machine applies a force of 25 N to an object. What is the mechanical advantage o

Vinvika [58]

Mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of output load to the input load. The mechanical advantage of the machine will be 0.1.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage?</h3>

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system,

It is used to obtain the efficiency of forces in levers and pulleys. It is an effective way of amplifying the force in simple machines like levers.

The theoretical mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of the force responsible for the useful work in the system to the applied force.

Given

applied force = 250 N

Output force = 25

Mechanical advantage = work output / work input

$\rm{Mechanical advantage}=\frac{F_O}{F_I}$

$\rm{Mechanical advantage}=\frac{25}{250}$

$\rm{Mechanical advantage}=0.1$

Hence the mechanical advantage of the machine will be 0.1

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The minimum velocity of the Salmon jumping at the given angle is 12.3 m/s.

The given parameters;

height of the waterfall, h = 0.432 m
distance of the Salmon from the waterfall, s = 3.17 m
angle of projection of the Salmon, = 30.8º

The time of motion to fall from 0.432 m is calculated as;

$h = v_0_y + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\0.432 = 0 + (0.5\times 9.8)t^2\\\\0.432 = 4.9t^2\\\\t^2 = \frac{0.432}{4.9} \\\\t^2 = 0.088\\\\t = \sqrt{0.088} \\\\t = 0.3 \ s$

The minimum velocity of the Salmon jumping at the given angle is calculated as;

$X = v_0_x t\\\\3.17 = (v_0\times cos(30.8)) \times 0.3\\\\10.567 = v_0\times cos(30.8)\\\\v_0 = \frac{10.567}{cos(30.8)} \\\\v_0 = 12.3 \ m/s$

Thus, the minimum velocity of the Salmon jumping at the given angle is 12.3 m/s.

Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 1.99-kg object is at 2.99 m, a 2.96-kg object is at 2.57 m, a 2.43-kg o

Dominik [7]

Answer:

The center of mass for the object is $y_c = 1.063 \ m$ from the origin

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the first object is $m_1 = 1.99 \ kg$

The position of first object with respect to origin $y_1 = 2.99 \ m$

The mass of the second object is $m_2 = 2.96 \ kg$

The position of second object with respect to origin $y_2 = 2.57 \ m$

The mass of the third object is $m_3 = 2.43 \ kg$

The position of third object with respect to origin $y_3 = 0 \ m$

The mass of the fourth object is $m_3 = 3.96 \ kg$

The position of fourth object with respect to origin $y_3 = -0.502 \ m$

Generally the center of mass of the object along the x-axis is zero because all the mass lie on the y axis

Generally the location of the center mass of the object is mathematically represented as

$y_c = \frac{m_1 * y_1 + m_2 * y_2 + m_3 * y_3 + m_4 * y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}$

=> $y_c = \frac{1.99 * 2.99 + 2.96 * 2.57 + 2.43 * 0 + 3.96 * (-0.502)}{1.99+ 2.96 + 2.43 + 3.96}$

=> $y_c = 1.063 \ m$

A bird flies 3.7 meters in 46 seconds, what is its speed?

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Speed is 0.08 m/s.

Explanation:

Given the distance that the bird flies = 3.7 meters

The time is taken by the bird to fly the 3.7 meters = 46 seconds

We have given distance and time. Now we have to find the speed at which the bird flies. So, to calculate the speed of the bird we have to divide the distance by the time.

Below is the formula to find the speed.

Speed = Distance / Time

Now insert the given value in the formula.

Speed = 3.7 / 46 = 0.08 m/s
