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

work

mechanical advantage

A positive charge is placed in an electric field that points west. What direction is the force on the positive particle? I think
Kisachek [45]
Right.  You are true.  The direction of the electric field is defined to be
the direction of the force on a small positive charge placed in the field.

What is necessary for a substance to be a conductor of electricity?
Stella [2.4K]
The main requirement for a good conductor of electricity is to have a lot of valence electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons of the outer shells of atoms not bound with other atoms (for example through covalent bounds). These electrons are "free to escape" as soon as an electric field with enough intensity is applied to the material, and therefore these electrons will be free to move in the material producing an electric current.

Rami uses a disposable camera that has a flash. When he wants to take a picture, he holds a button and hears a rising whining so
ivann1987 [24]
<span>It stores energy and delivers it in a short burst.

The whirring sound is produced by the charging of the capacitor. A capacitor is an electrical component which is capable of storing charge. When the capacitor stores charge, it is storing energy. After doing so, the capacitor releases the electrical energy that it had stored as light energy, which is seen as the flash of the camera. It must do so in a burst, because the intensity of the flash is very high and would require a high amount of energy to maintain.
