Answer:

IMA = 2.5 metres

EFFICIENCY = 80%

Explanation:

The AMA of a machine is referred to as the Actual Mechanical Advantage of a machine, calculated as the ratio of the output to the input force.

The Ideal Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the input distance to the output distance.

From the diagram, the input distance which is also the distance moved by effort = 5metres

The load distance (output distance) = 2 metres

IMA = INPUT DISTANCE / OUTPUT DISTANCE

IMA = 5metres / 2 metres = 2.5 meters

Efficiency is the ratio of AMA TO IMA

AMA = 2, IMA = 2.5

EFFICIENCY = AMA / IMA

EFFICIENCY = (2 / 2.5) × 100%= 0.8 × 100%

EFFICIENCY = 80%

kvasek [131]

Answer:

a) $a= \frac{4 \pi^2 (0.02 m)^2}{0.00162 s}=9.74 \frac{m}{s^2}$

b) $k = \frac{9.8}{9.74}=1.006$

Explanation:

Part a

For this case we can begin finding the period like this:

$T= \frac{1}{w} =\frac{1}{617 rad/s}=0.00162 s$

Then we know that the centripetal acceleration is given by:

$a= \frac{v^2}{r}$

And the velocity is given by:

$v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}$

If we replace this into the acceleration we got:

$a = \frac{(\frac{2\pi r}{T})^2}{r}= \frac{4 \pi^2 r}{T^2}$

And we can replace the values and we got:

$a= \frac{4 \pi^2 (0.02 m)^2}{0.00162 s}=9.74 \frac{m}{s^2}$

Part b

For this case we want to find a value of k such that:

$a= k 9.8$

Where a = 9.74, so then we can solve for k like this:

$k = \frac{9.8}{9.74}=1.006$

15. Some people have observed that animal behavior changes just before an earthquake. What might explain this?

Ber [7]

Answer:

15: Animals are able to detect the first of an earthquake's seismic waves—the P-wave, or pressure wave, that arrives in advance of the S-wave, or secondary, shaking wave. This likely explains why animals have been seen snapping to attention, acting confused or running right before the ground starts to shake.

16: No, it is not even remotely true. Microwaves cook food from the outside in, just like a regular oven. In fact, most of the cooking on the inside of the food, depending on its thickness, is done by heat conduction from the outside surfaces inwards, as the microwaves do not actually penetrate that far into the food.
