6

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage is a factor that measures how input force increases using a machine.

A lever is a simple machine with the fulcrum at the center.

To calculate the mechanical advantage M.A of levers we use the expression below;

M. A = \frac{F_{b} }{F_{a} } = \frac{a}{b}

F_{a} = input force

F_{b} = output force

a is the distance of the input force from the fulcrum

b is the distance of the output force from the fulcrum

Given

a = 36cm

b = 6cm

M.A = \frac{36cm}{6cm} = 6

Answer:

W = 506.75 N

Explanation:

tension = 2300 N

Rider is towed at a constant speed means there no net force acting on the rider.

hence taking all the horizontal force and vertical force in consideration.

net horizontal  force:

F cos 30° - T cos 19° = 0

F cos 30° = 2300 × cos 19°

F = 2511.12 N

net vertical force:

F sin 30° - T sin 19°- W = 0

W = F sin 30° - T sin 19°

W =  2511.12 sin 30° - 2300 sin 19°

W = 506.75 N

klasskru [66]

Answer:

a.a. \ \frac{7}{25}

b.\ \ \ P(D_1D_2)=\frac{6}{25}

Explanation:

a. Find the probability that exactly one photo detector of a pair is acceptable:

Let A_i=i^{th} photo is accepted and the probability D_i=i^{th} is defected.

Therefore:

P(A_i)=3/5,\ P(A_2|A_1)=4/5,\ \ P(A_2|D_1)=2/5\\\\\\=P(A_1D_2)+P(D_1A_2)\\\\=\frac{3}{5}\times\frac{1}{5}+\frac{2}{5}\times\frac{2}{5}\\\\=\frac{7}{25}

#The probability of exactly one photo detector of a pair is accepted is 7/25

b.Find the probability that both photo detectors in a pair are defective,P(D1D2):

P(D_1D_2)=\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{3}{5}\\\\=\frac{6}{25}

Hence, from out tree diagram,the probability that both photo detectors in a pair are defective is 6/25

What is scientific concensus?
8_murik_8 [283]
Scientific Consensus is primarily a position, judgment, or a opinion of scientist in a particular area of there studies. So more or less like a opinion of the matter, its like saying, I don't agree with your study, and I think it should have been done another way.
