Answer:

The mechanical advantage of the system is equal to 19.62

Explanation:

The ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied to it is called mechanical advantage. In other words it is the ratio of output force to the input force.

In this problem mass=200kg

applied force=100N  

input force=100N

output force=mg=200 \times 9.8=196N.

mechanical advantage MA= \frac{1960}{100}=19.6

It gives an idea about the efficiency of a mechanical device. It is indeed a measure of force amplification. In block and tackle system an assembly of ropes and pulleys is used to lift loads. When the moving block is supported by a  greater  number of rope sections the force amplification will be more.

Answer:

19.6

Explanation:

MA=Ouput/Input

To get output value multiply; 200 (which is the mass) * 9.8 (which is gravity)

So, 200*9.8=1960N

Input is 100 because that is the force you are putting into the bag

Back to our formula MA=Output/Input, enter in our values...

MA=1960/100

Now divide 1960/100=19.6

MA=19.6

(no units; they cancel out).

RC time constant circuit if R 50 KOC-21 a TOSS c. 1.05 s . what is the expected RC value b. 10.55 d. 0.105 s
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Time constant of RC circuit is 0.105 seconds.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistance, R=50\ K\Omega=5\times 10^4\ \Omega

Capacitance, C=2.1\ \mu F=2.1\times 10^{-6}\ F

We need to find the expected time constant for this RC circuit. It can be calculated as :

\tau=R\times C

\tau=5\times 10^4\times 2.1\times 10^{-6}

\tau=0.105\ s

So, the time constant for this RC circuit is 0.105 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.
