See how a block and tackle system can increase your mechanical advantage. You will need two broomsticks, a rope, and two helpers

.
A. Give each helper a broom stick and have them stand facing each other holding the broomstick firmly in both hands in a horizontal position. The broomsticks should be at the same level, about two feet apart.


B. Tie one end of the rope to one of the broomsticks. (You may need to have one of your helpers hold the knot firmly in one hand as he or she holds the broomstick to help anchor it.)


C. Wrap the rope around the other broomstick, as in a simple pulley system, and pull on the free end of the rope. Your helpers should resist your pulling. What happens? Can you pull the broomsticks together?


D. Now weave the rope back over the first broomstick, so you have a double pulley. Pull on the free end. What happens now? Can you pull the broomsticks together? What is your mechanical advantage?


E. Try weaving the rope over the broomsticks one or two more times. Describe what happens, and state the mechanical advantage of each situation.


F. Write a summary of what happened and an explanation using the terms:


force

distance

Igoryamba

Momentum = Mass × Velocity

According to this formula,

Momentum of deer = 176 × 19 = 3344 kg•m/s.

Since you are heading north and the deer is running towards you, the direction of the deer' s momentum is north as well.

A car generates 2,552 N and weighs 2,250 pounds. what is the rate of acceleration
Lilit [14]
Ans: a = 2.50 m/s^2

Explanation:
First convert the mass in its standard unit i.e. kilogram(kg):
2250 lbs = 1020.583kg

Next use Newton's Second law:
F = ma

Where F = 2552N
m = 1020.583kg

=> a = (2552/1020.583)
a = 2.50 m/s^2

A cat is chasing a mouse across a 1.3 m tall dining table. The mouse darts to the side and the cat accidentally slides off, land
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

1) 0.51 seconds.

2) 1.45 m/s.

Explanation:

given, height from which cat falls = 1.3 m

we know that, s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at².

here if we consider cat moment only in downward direction,

intial velocity of cat in downward direction , u = 0.

so, time, t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }.

⇒ t = \sqrt{\frac{2(1.3)}{9.81} } = 0.51 seconds.

t = 0.51 seconds.

now, consider cat moment only in forward direction

s = ut , since acceleration is zero in forward direction

⇒ u = \frac{s}{t}.

so, u = \frac{0.75}{0.51} = 1.45 m/s .
