IMA = Ideal Mechanical Advantage
First class lever = > F1 * x2 = F2 * x1
Where F1 is the force applied to beat F2. The distance from F1 and the pivot is x1 and the distance from F2 and the pivot is x2
=> F1/F2 = x1 /x2
IMA = F1/F2 = x1/x2
Now you can see the effects of changing F1, F2, x1 and x2.
If you decrease the lengt X1 between the applied effort (F1) and the pivot, IMA decreases.
If you increase the length X1 between the applied effort (F1) and the pivot, IMA increases.
If you decrease the applied effort (F1) and increase the distance between it and the pivot (X1) the new IMA may incrase or decrase depending on the ratio of the changes.
If you decrease the applied effort (F1) and decrease the distance between it and the pivot (X1) IMA will decrease.
Answer: Increase the length between the applied effort and the pivot.
Answer:
0m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity of the boat = 8m/s
Final velocity = 8m/s
Time taken = 4s
Unknown:
Acceleration of the boat = ?
Solution:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
It is mathematically expressed as;
A =
A is the acceleration
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
Insert the parameters and solve;
A =
= 0m/s²
Answer:
v = 29.4m/s
Explanation:
Since the ball is dropped at rest,
u = 0m/s
a = 9.81m/s²
Using
v = u + at
After 3 seconds,
v = 0 + (9.81)(3)
v = 29.4m/s
Answer:
The velocity is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the bullet is 
The initial speed of the bullet is 
The mass of the target is 
The initial velocity of target is 
The final velocity of the bullet is is 
Generally according to the law of momentum conservation we have that

=> 
=> 
When gases, fluids, or other solids are in contact with a moving object
heat is produced due to friction.
