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 pendulum has 711 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
Anika [276]
According to law of conservation of energy, 
<span>Energy can neither be constructed nor be destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.
</span>
<span>At the highest point of the pendulum(point b), pendulum is associated with potential energy only and no kinetic energy.
</span><span>Therefore total energy at point b = potential energy = 711 J.... i
</span>
<span>At the bottom most point(point a), pendulum is associated only with kinetic energy and no potential energy.
</span>Therefore total energy at point a = kinetic energy ---- ii
<span>From i and ii,
</span>Kinetic energy = potential energy = 711 J.(Conserving energy)

Hence kinetic energy at the bottom most point is 711 J.
Hope this helps!!

Ammonia gas occupies a volume of 0.450 L at a pressure of 96 kPa. What
Sauron [17]

Answer:

0.426 L

Explanation:

Boyles law is expressed as p1v1=p2v2 where

P1 is first pressure, v1 is first volume

P2 is second pressure, v2 is second volume.

Given information

P1=96 kPa, v1=0.45 l

P2=101.3 kpa

Unknown is v2

Making v2 the subject from Boyle's law

v2=\frac {p1v1}{p2}

Substituting the given values then

v2=\frac {96*0.45}{101.3}=0.4264560710760l\approx 0.426 l

Therefore, the volume is approximately 0.426 L

What direction does current flow from a battery in a series circuit?
telo118 [61]
What's now called "Conventional current" is thought of as the flow of positive charge, from the battery's positive terminal to its negative one.

But it turns out that positive charges don't flow. The physical flow of charge is the flow of electrons. They come out of the battery's negative terminal, and carry negative charge around the circuit to the battery's positive one.
