How efficient is a pulley system if an operator has to pull 2.5m of rope to lift a 250 N pail of water a distance of 4.5 m?

Alik [6]3 years ago

Answer:

the pulley system is very efficient

Explanation:

Given;

load, L  = 250 N

distance moved by the load, a = 4.5 m

distance moved by the effort, e = 2.5 m

let the force or effort applied = F

Apply the principle of conservation of energy;

F x e = L x a

F = (L x a) / e

F = (250 x 4.5) / 2.5

F = 450 N

The efficient of the pulley system;

E = Output force / Input force

E = (450 x 2.5) / (250 x 4.5)

E = 1 = 100%

Therefore, the pulley system is very efficient

A 2.00-m long uniform beam has a mass of 4.00 kg. The beam rests on a fulcrum that is 1.20 m from its left end. In order for the
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

x ’= 1,735 m,  measured from the far left

Explanation:

For the system to be in equilibrium, the law of rotational equilibrium must be fulfilled.

Let's fix a reference system located at the point of rotation and that the anticlockwise rotations have been positive

             

They tell us that we have a mass (m1) on the left side and another mass (M2) on the right side,

the mass that is at the left end x = 1.2 m measured from the pivot point, the mass of the right side is at a distance x and the weight of the body that is located at the geometric center of the bar

           x_{cm} = 1.2 -1

          x_ {cm} = 0.2 m

          Σ τ = 0

          w₁ 1.2 + mg 0.2 - W₂ x = 0

          x = \frac{m_1 g\ 1.2 \ + m g \ 0.2}{M_2 g}

          x = \frac{m_1 \ 1.2 \ + m \ 0.2 }{M_2}

let's calculate

          x = \frac{2.9 \ 1.2 \ + 4 \ 0.2 }{8.00}2.9 1.2 + 4 0.2 / 8

           

          x = 0.535 m

measured from the pivot point

measured from the far left is

           x’= 1,2 + x

           x'=  1.2 + 0.535

           x ’= 1,735 m

arlik [135]

Answer:

\ m/s

Explanation:

F = Force =

m = Mass of proton = 1.7\times 10^{-27\ kg

t = Time taken = 2\times 10^{-14}\ s

Acceleration is given by

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{}{1.7\times 10^{-27}}\\\Rightarrow a=\ m/s^2

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=+\times 2\times 10^{-14}\\\Rightarrow v=+\times 2\times 10^{-14}\\\Rightarrow v=+\\\Rightarrow v=\ m/s

The velocity of the proton is \ m/s
