Answer:
There is no mechanical advantage
Explanation:
The mechanical advantage is possible only when the force needed to lift a load is lesser than the weight of the load.
For example, is we have a mechanical advantage of 2, the force needed to lift will be 1/2 of the weight of the load, and if we have a mechanical advantage of 4, the force needed will be 1/4 of the weight of the load.
In the attached image there are clear examples of mechanical advantage with pulleys.
(a) 25.2 m/s
Let's take the initial vertical position of the rock as "zero" (reference height).
According to the law of conservation of energy, the speed of the rock as it reaches again the position "zero" after being thrown upwards is equal to the initial speed of the rock, 21 m/s (in fact, if there is no air resistance, no energy can be lost during the motion; and since the kinetic energy depends only on the speed of the rock:
and the gravitational potential energy of the rock has not changed, since the rock has returned into its initial position, it means that the speed of the rock should be the same)
This means that we can only analyze the final part of the motion, the one in which the rock falls into the 10 m hole. Since it is a free fall motion, we can find the final speed by using
where
u = 21 m/s is the initial speed of the rock as it enters the hole
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity
d = 10 m is the depth of the hole
Substituting,
(b) 4.72 s
The vertical position of the rock at time t is given by
where
is the initial vertical velocity
Substituting y(t)=-10 m, we can then solve the equation for t to find the time at which the rock reaches the bottom of the hole:
which has two solutions:
t = -0.43 s --> negative, so we discard it
t = 4.72 s --> this is our solution
