Answer:

B. 1. The factors on which the mechanical advantage depends are the load, the effort, the distance moved by the load and the distance moved by the effort

2. The principle of a simple machine is the conversion of the direction and magnitude of a force input into one or more outputs of a either a different magnitude, or direction or both

3. A 75% efficiency of a simple machine means that the power of the frictional force is one quarter of the power of the input force

4. A lever is a simple machine that consists of a fulcrum over (or under) which a rigid beam can be applied

5. There are three classes of lever

6. A pulley

Explanation:

B. 1. For simple machines, we have the Ideal Mechanical Advantage, IMA, given as follows;

$IMA = \dfrac{F_r}{F_e} = \dfrac{d_e}{d_r}$

Where;

$F_r$ = The resistance force (The load)

$F_e$ = The effort force

$d_e$ = The distance moved by the effort

$d_r$ = The distance the load is moved

Therefore, the factors on which the mechanical advantage depends are the load, the effort, the distance moved by the load and the distance moved by the effort

2. The principle of a simple machine is the conversion of the direction and magnitude of a force input into one or more outputs of a either a different magnitude, or direction or both

3. The mechanical efficiency of a simple machine, η, can be expressed as follows;

$\eta =\dfrac{P_{out}}{P_{in}}$

Where;

$P_{out}$ = The power at output

$P_{in}$ = The input power

$P_{in}$ = $P_{out}$ + $P_{friction}$

$P_{friction}$ = The frictional force's power

Therefore, an efficiency of 75% means that we have;

$P_{out}$ = η × $P_{in}$ = 0.75 × $P_{in}$ = 0.75· $P_{in}$

From which we have;

$P_{in}$ = $P_{out}$ + $P_{friction}$ = 0.75· $P_{in}$ + $P_{friction}$

∴ $P_{friction}$ = $P_{in}$ - 0.75· $P_{in}$ = 0.25· $P_{in}$

Therefore, 75% efficiency of a simple machine means that the power of the frictional force is 0.25 × (or one quarter of) the power of the input force

4. A lever is a simple machine that consists of a fulcrum over (or under) which a rigid beam can be applied

5. There are three classes of lever

(a) First class lever (b) Second class lever and (c) Third class lever

6. A pulley

A pulley acts by lifting a load upward from a downward applied force.

Compute the dot product of the vectors u and v, and find the angle between the vectors. Bold v equals 7 Bold i minus Bold j and

OLga [1]

Answer:

$\theta = 106.3 degree$

Explanation:

As we know that

$\vec w = -\hat i + 7\hat j$

$\vec v = 7\hat i - \hat j$

also we know that

$\vec v. \vec w = -14$

it is given as

$\vec v. \vec w = (-\hat i + 7\hat j).(7\hat i - \hat j)$

$\vec v. \vec w = - 7 - 7 = -14$

also we can find the magnitude of two vectors as

$|v| = \sqrt{(-1)^2 + (7)^2}$

$|v| = \sqrt{50}$

similarly we have

$|w| = \sqrt{(7^2) + (-1)^2}$

$|w| = \sqrt{50}$

now we know the formula of dot product as

$\vec v. \vec w = |v||w| cos\theta$

$-14 = (\sqrt{50})^2cos\theta$

$\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{-14}{50})$

$\theta = 106.3 degree$

What determines how the plates interact at their boundaries

swat32

Answer:

Tectonic plate interactions are of three different basic types: Divergent boundaries are areas where plates move away from each other, forming either mid-oceanic ridges or rift valleys. These are also known as constructive boundaries. Convergent boundaries are areas where plates move toward each other and collide.

Explanation:

Meaning the answer to your question is depending on what type of tectonic plate interaction is occurring will depend on how the plates interact.

A person jumps out a fourth-story window 14 m above a firefighter safety net. The survivor stretches the net 1.8 m before coming

Monica [59]

Answer:

The deceleration is $a = - 76.27 m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height above firefighter safety net is $H = 14 \ m$

The length by which the net is stretched is $s = 1.8 \ m$

From the law of energy conservation

$KE_T + PE_T = KE_B + PE_B$

Where $KE_T$ is the kinetic energy of the person before jumping which equal to zero(because to kinetic energy at maximum height )

and $PE_T$ is the potential energy of the before jumping which is mathematically represented at

$PE_T = mg H$

and $KE_B$ is the kinetic energy of the person just before landing on the safety net which is mathematically represented at

$KE_B = \frac{1}{2} m v^2$

and $PE_B$ is the potential energy of the person as he lands on the safety net which has a value of zero (because it is converted to kinetic energy )

So the above equation becomes

$mgH = \frac{1}{2} m v^2$

=> $v = \sqrt{2 gH }$

substituting values

$v = 16.57 m/s$

Applying the equation o motion

$v_f = v + 2 a s$

Now the final velocity is zero because the person comes to rest

$0 = 16.57 + 2 * a * 1.8$

$a = - \frac{16.57^2 }{2 * 1.8}$

$a = - 76.27 m/s^2$
