Answer: 5

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage of a wedge is given by the formula:

MA=\frac{L}{h}

where L is the length of the slope and h is the height.

In this problem, we have a length of L=10 inches and a height of h=2 inches, so the mechanical advantage is

MA=\frac{10}{2}=5

You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth. Does the Earth accelerate toward you?
Triss [41]

When we jump from the truck and accelerate towards the earth surface, the earth also accelerates towards us but it's acceleration is very negligible.

To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration of earth due to the gravitational attraction.

<h3>What's the gravitational force between the earth and a person?</h3>
  • Gravitational attraction force is GMm/r² between the earth and a person.
  • M= mass of the earth

m= mass of the person

r= separation between them.

<h3>What's the acceleration of the earth towards the person when he jumps from a truck?</h3>
  • According to Newton's second law, Force = M×acceleration
  • Acceleration= Force / M
  • Here, Force = GMm/r²,

so acceleration of earth= Gm/r²

  • As this acceleration is very small, so we can't notice it.

Thus, we can conclude that the earth also accelerates towards us.

Why is their displacement the same when the distance each traveled was different?
motikmotik
Displacement is how far something is from its starting position

for example if X moved 10 feet, turned around and moved 30 feet, its distance would be 40, but the displacement would be 20,
and if Y Moved 2 feet, and turned around and moved 22 feet, its distance would be 24, but its displacement would also be 20
