A system of pulleys is used to raise a load of bricks that weighs 1,700 newtons. The force applied to the pulley is 340 newtons.

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.

If a car change the velocity from 36M/S to 28M/S with an acceleration of -2.0 M/S then how much time does it take for the vehicl
leonid [27]

The time it will take if a car change the velocity from 36m/s to 28m/s with an acceleration of -2.0m/s² is 4s.

<h3>How to calculate deceleration?</h3>

Deceleration is the amount by which a speed or velocity decreases (and so a scalar quantity or a vector quantity).

The deceleration of a body can be calculated using the following formula:

-a = (v - u)/t

Where;

  • -a = deceleration
  • v = final velocity
  • u = initial velocity
  • t = time in seconds

-2 = (28 - 36)/t

-2t = -8

t = 4s

Therefore, the time it will take if a car change the velocity from 36m/s to 28m/s with an acceleration of -2.0m/s² is 4s.

viva [34]
Set up the problem with the conversion rates as fractions where when you multiply the units cancel out leaving the desired units behind.

( \frac{ 5 cm}{1 sec} ) *( \frac{1m }{100cm})*( \frac{1km}{1000m} )*( \frac{1mi}{1.6km} ) = 0.00003125 mi/sec \\  \\ ( \frac{0.00003125 mi}{1sec} )*( \frac{60sec}{1min} )*( \frac{60min}{1hr} )=0.1125 mi/hr

Bruno the bat flies at a speed of 0.5 m/s in circle of radius 1 m. What is his acceleration?
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Acceleration is 0.25m/s^2

Explanation:

Given the following :

Speed = 0.5m/s

Radius(r) of circle = 1m

Acceleration round a circular path is given as :

a = v^2 / r

Where

a = acceleration of the body

v = speed / velocity

r = radius

Therefore,

a = v^2 / r

a = (0.5)^2 / 1

a = 0.25m/s^2
