Answer:

1700 kg

Explanation:

Let’s use conservation of momentum

32.5 * 388 = 7.42 * mc

mc = 1699.46

mc = 1700 kg

The efficiency of a squeaky pulley system is 73 percent. The pulleys are usedto raise a mass to a certain height. What force is
larisa86 [58]

The efficiency of the machine is defined as

\eta = \frac{W_{out}}{W_{in}}

Here

Work out is the work output and Work in is the work input

To find the Work in we have then

W_{in} = \frac{W_{out}}{\eta}

W_{in} = \frac{mgh}{\eta}

Replacing with our values

W_{in} = \frac{(58)(9.8)(3)}{73\%}

W_{in} = 2335.89J

The work done by the applied force is

W = Fd

Here,

F = Force

d = Distnace

Rearranging to find F,

F = \frac{W}{d}

F = \frac{2335.89J }{18}

F = 129.77N

Therefore the force exerted on the machine after rounding off to two significant figures is 130N

if a modern home is built too tightly, the air change rate per hour is reduced. Ventilation may be increased to safe levels by _
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:Mechanical ventilation system

Explanation:

Ventilation can be increased to safe levels by using mechanical ventilation system to bring in more fresh air.

There are many ways to provide ventilation for example

  • providing ventilation fans in kitchens and bathrooms to remove allergens,moisture.
  • A duct should be provided such that it provides fresh air to different rooms and provision should also be made to remove the poor air inside home.
