you have a 200 kg bag being lifted with a block and tackle. If you pull with 100 newtons what is the MA of the system?

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).

In an electric vehicle, each wheel is powered by its own motor. The vehicle weight is 4,000 lbs. By regenerative braking, its sp
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

the theoretical maximum energy in kWh that can be recovered during this interval is 0.136 kWh

Explanation:

Given that;

weight of vehicle = 4000 lbs

we know that 1 kg = 2.20462

so

m = 4000 / 2.20462 =  1814.37 kg

Initial velocity V_{i} = 60 mph = 26.8224 m/s

Final velocity V_{f} = 30 mph = 13.4112 m/s

now we determine change in kinetic energy

Δk = \frac{1}{2}m(  V_{i}² - V_{f}² )

we substitute

Δk = \frac{1}{2}×1814.37( (26.8224)² - (13.4112)² )

Δk = \frac{1}{2} × 1814.37 × 539.5808

Δk = 489500 Joules

we know that; 1 kilowatt hour = 3.6 × 10⁶ Joule

so

Δk = 489500 / 3.6 × 10⁶

Δk = 0.13597 ≈ 0.136 kWh

Therefore, the theoretical maximum energy in kWh that can be recovered during this interval is 0.136 kWh

Which of these statements is correct about photosynthesis and decomposition?
Ede4ka [16]
<span>The last option. Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, water from the soil and other nutrients also from the soil - salts containing nitrogene, potassium, sulphur, etc. They use water and carbon dioxide to produce sugar through photosyntesis. Decomposition is the reaction that converts any organic compound back into inorganic compounds - water, carbon dioxide and salts containing nitrogene, potassium, sulphur, etc. So it's basically the opposite. So photosyntesis uses carbon dioxide as a reactive and take it from the atmosphere, whereas decomposition generates carbon dioxide as a product and releases it to the atmosphere.</span>

The law of reflection says that the angle of incidence is
nekit [7.7K]
The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Furthermore, the law of reflection states that the incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal all lie in the same plane.

hope this helps :)

Infer the direction of the net force acting on a car as it slows down and turns right.
Kobotan [32]
Net force would be towards the right and back (opposite direction of motion) since it's slowing down (decelerating) and turning right.

A jumbo jet weighing 65,000 kg Is accelerating at 3 m/s^2 while its jet engines are putting out 200000 N of thrust.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Fa = 5000 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

Let's assume that the movement of the plane is to the right, any movement or force to the right will be marked with a positive sign, while any force or movement to the left, will be taken as negative.

The force of the turbine drives the plane to the right, therefore it is positive, the acceleration is constant and keeps the movement to the right, therefore it is positive, the wind drag force tries to prevent the movement of the plane to the left therefore it is negative, with this analysis we deduce the following equation.

ΣF = m*a

where:

ΣF = sum of forces [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 65000 [kg]

a = acceleration = 3 [m/s²]

Fa = force exerted by the air [N]

200000 - Fa = 65000*3

Fa = 200000 - (3*65000)

Fa = 5000 [N]
