The ideal mechanical advantage of a pulley system is equal to the?

marishachu [46]

Answer: The correct answer is "Number of rope segments supporting the load".

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage: It is defined as the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied on the machine. The ideal mechanical advantage of a machines is mechanical advantage in the absence of friction.

The ideal mechanical advantage of a pulley system is equal to the number of rope segments which is supporting the load. More the rope segments, It is more helpful to do the lifting the work.

It means that less force is needed for this task to complete.

Therefore, the correct option is (C).

In a simple machine, the energy input is 120 J. If the efficiency of the machine is 80%, calculate the energy output

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

<h2>96 Joules</h2>

Explanation:

We know that efficiency is the ratio of output power by input power. i.e. Efficiency describes the quality of machine or system how good it is.

Solution,

Energy input of system = 120 J

Efficiency = 80% = $\frac{80}{100} = 0.8$

Now,

According to definition,

Efficiency = $\frac{output}{input}$

Cross multiplication:

$output \: = \: 0.8 \times 120$

Calculate the product

$output \: = 96 \: joules$

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...

A sample has a density of 30 g/ml. there is 60 ml of this substance.how much does it weigh?

aleksandrvk [35]

If each mL has 30 grams of the substance in it, then 60 mL have 1800 grams of mass in them. the weight of 1,800 grams of mass on Earth is (1.8 kg) x (9.8 m/s^2) = 17.6 newtons.

Suppose an object is launched from a point 320 feet above the earth with an initial velocity of 128 ft/sec upward, and the only

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

(a)Therefore the highest altitude attained by the object is =576 ft .

(b)Therefore the object takes 6 sec to fall to the ground.

Explanation:

Initial velocity: Initial velocity is a velocity from which an object starts to move.

u is usually used for notation of initial notation.

Final velocity: Final velocity is a velocity of an object after certain second from starting.

The final velocity is denoted by v.

Acceleration: The difference of final velocity and initial velocity per unit time

The S.I unit of acceleration is m/s².

(a)

Given that u= 128 ft\sec and g = 32 ft/sec².

At highest point the velocity of the object is 0 i.e v=0

Since the displacement is opposite to the gravity.

Therefore acceleration( a)= -g = -32 ft/sec².

To find the time this to happen we use the following formula

$v=u+at$

Here v=0

⇒0=128+(-32) t

⇒32t=128

⇒t = 4 sec

To determine the height we use the following formula

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2$

$\Rightarrow s= (128\times4)+\frac{1}{2}\times (-32) \times4^2$

⇒s= 256 ft

Therefore the highest altitude attained by the object is =(320+256)ft=576 ft .

(b)

At the highest point the velocity of the object is 0.

so u=0. a=g= 32 ft/sec² [ since the direction of gravity and the displacement are same] s= 576 ft

To determine the time to fall we use the following formula

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2$

$\Rightarrow 576 = (0\times t)+\frac{1}{2} \times 32 \times t^2$

$\Rightarrow 16\times t^2=576$

$\Rightarrow t^2=\frac{576}{16}$

$\Rightarrow t^2=36$

⇒t=6 sec

Therefore the object takes 6 sec to fall to the ground.
