A person is lifting a heavy box using a lever. What is the purpose of the lever in this situation?

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

to reduce the <em>force</em> needed to lift the box and <em>change</em> the direction of the force

Explanation:

1. "A lever consists of a rigid bar that is able to pivot at one point. This point of rotation is known as the fulcrum. A force is applied at some point away from the fulcrum (typically called the effort)."

By this definition, we know that force is needed to lift an object using a lever.

2.<u> "When the input and output forces are on opposite sides of the fulcrum, </u><u>the lever changes the direction of the applied force.</u> This occurs only with first-class levers. When both the input and output forces are on the same side of the fulcrum, the direction of the applied force does not change"

For example, on a sew saw, if a force is applied on one end, you on the other side/end would go up, meaning <u>a change in direction</u>.

3. Lastly, we know <u><em>a lever is typically used to reduce work</em></u>, in other words, the force needed to move something.

Basically, if we were to put a lever into an equation:

reduced force + change in direction = lever

(<em>the expection</em>) <u>unless load and force are on the same side</u>, there will be <u>no change in direction. </u>

For example, if you and your friend sit on the same side of a sew saw, the sew saw would not go up or down, meaning no change in direction.

So if not stated otherwise you can assume the load and force are on opposite sides. The purpose of a lever in that situation would be to reduce the force needed to lift the box and change the direction of the force.

*While reading my explanation, it may be helpful to look up a diagram containing a lever, with a load, fulcrum, and applied force.

1. In Newton’s ring experiment, the diameter of the 5th ring is 0.30 cm and diameter of 15th the ring is 0.62 cm. Find the diame

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Diameter of Newton’s 5th ring = 0.30 cm

Diameter of Newton’s 15th ring = 0.62 cm

Diameter of Newton’s 25th ring = ?

From Newton’s rings experiment we infer that

D2n+m − D2n = 4λmR

For the 5th and 15th rings we have

D215 − D25 = 4λ * 10 * R _______ (1) (m = 10)

For 15th and 25th rings

D225 − D215 = 4λ * 10 * R _______ (2) (m = 10)

We equate the two derivatives

Equation (2) = Equation (1)

D225 − D215 = D215 − D25

D225 = 2D215 – D25

Substituting the values into the equation

D225 = 2 * 0.62 * 0.62 – 0.3 * 0.3 =0.6788 cm2

D25 = 0.8239 cm

Pikes Peak near Denver, Colorado, has an elevation of 14,110 ft. Calculate the pressure at this elevation using three different

kramer

Answer:

a) P = 1240 lb/ft^2

b) P = 1040 lb/ft^2

c) P = 1270 lb/ft^2

Explanation:

Given:

- P_a = 2216.2 lb/ft^2

- β = 0.00357 R/ft

- g = 32.174 ft/s^2

- T_a = 518.7 R

- R = 1716 ft-lb / slug-R

- γ = 0.07647 lb/ft^3

- h = 14,110 ft

Find:

(a) Determine the pressure at this elevation using the standard atmosphere equation.

(b) Determine the pressure assuming the air has a constant specific weight of 0.07647 lb/ft3.

(c) Determine the pressure if the air is assumed to have a constant temperature of 59 oF.

Solution:

- The standard atmospheric equation is expressed as:

P = P_a* ( 1 - βh/T_a)^(g / R*β)

(g / R*β) = 32.174 / 1716*0.0035 = 5.252

P = 2116.2*(1 - 0.0035*14,110/518.7)^5.252

P = 1240 lb/ft^2

- The air density method which is expressed as:

P = P_a - γ*h

P = 2116.2 - 0.07647*14,110

P = 1040 lb/ft^2

- Using constant temperature ideal gas approximation:

P = P_a* e^ ( -g*h / R*T_a )

P = 2116.2* e^ ( -32.174*14110 / 1716*518.7 )

P = 1270 lb/ft^2
