The statement the mechanical advantage of the lever is 16 is False.

<h3>Mechanical Advantage</h3>

Mechanical advantage MA = d/D where

  • d = distance moved by effort and
  • D = distance moved by load

Given that the effort arm is 8 meters long, d = distance moved by effort = 8 m.

Also, given that the resistance arm is 2 meters long, D = distance moved by load = 2 m.

<h3>Calculating the mechanical advantage</h3>

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

MA = d/D

MA = 8 m/2 m

MA = 4

Since MA = 4, so, the stament is False.

So, the statement the mechanical advantage of the lever is 16 is False.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

3.31m/s

Explanation:

Angular momentum for 3s is

L = L_i_n_i + L_3_s

L = 2(11.5kg) + \int\limits^ {3s}_ {0s} {(t^2 + 2)} \, dt

L = 23kg+(\frac{t^3}{3} +2t)^ {3s}_ {0s}\\\\L=38kgm/s

Moment if inertia is

I = 2ml^2

I = 2(11.5)(0.5)^2\\\\I=5.75kgm^2

Angular speed

ω = L/I

= 38 / 5.75\\\\=6.61

The speed of each ball is

V = ωL

= 6.61\times0.5\\\\= 3.31m/s

1. Most waves are caused by vibrations. What motion in a transmitting antenna causes the vibrations that produce radio waves?
morpeh [17]
The answer 1 is
The best-known use of radio waves is for communication; television, cellphones and radios all receive radio waves and convert them to mechanical vibrations in the speaker to create sound waves that can be heard.Electromagnetic radiation is transmitted inwaves or particles at different wavelengths and frequencies.

the answer 2 is

Radio Waves: Instant Communication
Microwaves: Data and Heat

i think the answer number 3 is
It is all about wavelength versus tunnel diameter. The wavelength of GPS is about 20cm it would happily propagate in any normal tunnel if it could get in but the earth and other structures absorb it. AM radio (600kHz - 1500kHz) cannot propagate in any normal tunnel because the wavelength is too long (500m-200m) relative to the diameter, and thus gets reflected at the entrance. FM (100MHz ~ 3m) would propagate and it does for a while but then it suffers reflections

Coulomb measured the deflection of sphere A when spheres A and B had equal charges and were a distance d apart. He then made the
sdas [7]

Answer:

The new distance is     d = 0.447 d₀

Explanation:

The electric out is given by Coulomb's Law

         F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

This electric force is in balance with tension.

We reduce the charge of sphere B to 1/5 of its initial value (q_{B}=q₂ = q₂ / 5) than new distance (d = n d₀)

dat

     q₁ = q_{A}

     q₂ = q_{B}

     r = d₀

In order for the deviation to maintain the electric force it should not change, so we apply the Coulomb equation for the two points

         F = k q₁ q₂ / d₀²

         F = k q₁ (q₂ / 5) / (n d₀)²

         .k q₁ q₂ / d₀² = q₁ q₂ / (5 n² d₀²)

          5 n² = 1

          n = √ 1/5

          n = 0.447

The new distance is

         d = 0.447 d₀

Compare and contrast the terms vaporizing and condensation.
JulsSmile [24]
The terms are both about changing states. Vaporizing is when you heat something up into a vapor; condensation is when you lower a vapors temperature to make it become a liquid state.
