According to the Free Body Diagram of pulley system:

MA = W/T = n.

Here, MA is the mechanical advantage, W is the load, T is the tension, and n is the number of sections of rope supporting the load.

Let's calculate the ratio: 1700/340 = 5

Which means the T = 1/5 W, it can be achieved by compound pulley system with 4 or 5 pulleys.

So MA = 5, this is your answer.

AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. 110 m/s2

Explanation:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

Since we have the force and the mass, we can rearrange this equation to solve for acceleration by dividing both sides by mass:

Force/Mass = (Mass x Acceleration)/Mass

Acceleration = Force/Mass

Now we just have to plug in our values and calculate!

Acceleration = 48.4/0.44

Acceleration = 110m/s/s

It is option C. 110 m/s2

Hope this helped!

Why does a rolling sphere slows down?​
VLD [36.1K]

The sphere slow down due to friction force between the surface of the sphere and the surface on that the sphere is rolling . The friction force acting against the motion of the sphere. Thats why it is slowed down. In fact not only a sphere, anything can not slow down untill a force act against it's motion.

2) What must be connected for an electrical current to flow in a simple current?

<em>d.moving magnets,conductors, load to do work </em>

here moving magnets will work as generator and conductors is used as connectors.

5)What is the purpose of a load in a circuit?

<em>c.provide resistance to keep the voltage strong </em>

Load will provide the resistance to the circuit and help to build the voltage across it

6) What cause an electric current from a generator

<em>d.Magnets and conducting wires move near each other </em>

here when magnets move near wires then it will induce the electric current and behaves like generators

7) What do all generators have in common

<em>b.they transform mechanical into electrical energy </em>

They have magnets and rotating coils which will convert magnetic energy to electrical energy

8) How can we measure electrical current

<em>b.the pressure force is voltage;the # of electrons moving is amperes </em>

this voltage and number of electrons will help to calculate current

Extreme-sports enthusiasts have been known to jump off the top of El Capitan, a sheer granite cliff of height 910 m in Yosemite
german

Answer:

The jumper is in freefall for 12.447 seconds.

Explanation:

Let's start by calculating how far the jumper falls.

Initial height (on cliff) = 910 m

Final height after freefall = 150 m

Distance the jumper falls in freefall = 910 - 150 = 760 m

We can now use the equation of motion below to solve for the time:

s=u*t+\frac{1}{2} (a*t^2)

here. acceleration = 9.81 m/s   (due to gravity)

initial speed (u) = 0 m/s    (because vertical speed is 0 at the start)

and distance (s) = 760 meters (as calculated above)

So for speed we get:

760=0*t+0.5(9.81*t^2)

760=4.905t^2

t = 12.447 seconds
