If a 10 meter ramp helps you move a 500 kg object up 1 meter. What was the mechanical advantage of the ramp?

1 answer:

6 0

The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is

(Length of the incline) / (its height)

= (10m) / (1m)

= 10 .

It's the same for any load, and doesn't depend on the mass that you're trying to move up or down the ramp.

The magnitude J(r) of the current density in a certain cylindrical wire is given as a function of radial distance from the cente

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

$I=68.31\times 10^{-6}\ A$

Explanation:

Given that

J(r) = Br

We know that area of small element

dA = 2 π dr

I = J A

dI = J dA

Now by putting the values

dI = B r . 2 π dr

dI= 2π Br² dr

Now by integrating above equation

$\int_{0}^{I}dI= \int_{r_1}^{r_2}2\pi Br^2 dr$

$I={2\pi B}\times \dfrac{r_2^3-r_1^3}{3}$

Given that

B= 2.35 x 10⁵ A/m³

r₁ = 2 mm

r₂ = 2+ 0.0115 mm

r₂ = 2.0115 mm

$I={2\pi B}\times \dfrac{r_2^3-r_1^3}{3}$

By putting the values

$I={2\pi \times 2.35 \times 10^5 }\times \dfrac{(2.0115\times 10^{-3})^3-(2\times 10^{-3})^3}{3}\ A$

$I=68.31\times 10^{-6}\ A$

Inna Hurry is traveling at 6.8 m/s, when she realizes she is late for an appointment. She accelerates at 4.5 m/s^2 for 3.2 s. Wh

Alborosie

Answer:

1) v = 21.2 m/s

2) S = 63.33 m

3) s = 61.257 m

4) Deceleration, a = -4.32 m/s²

Explanation:

1) Given,

The initial velocity of Inna, u = 6.8 m/s

The acceleration of Inna, a = 4.5 m/s²

The time of travel, t = 3.2 s

Using the first equation of motion, the final velocity is

v = u + at

= 6.8 + 4.5 x 3.2

= 21.2 m/s

The final velocity of Inna is, v = 21.2 m/s

2) Given,

The initial velocity of Lisa, u = 12 m/s

The final velocity of Lisa, v = 26 m/s

The acceleration of Lisa, a = 4.2 m/s²

Using the III equations of motion, the displacement is

v² = u² +2aS

S = (v² - u²) / 2a

= (26² -12²) / 2 x 4.2

= 63.33 m

The distance Lisa traveled, S = 63.33 m

3) Given,

The initial velocity of Ed, u = 38.2 m/s

The deceleration of Ed, d = - 8.6 m/s²

The time of travel, t = 2.1 s

Using the II equations of motion, the displacement is

s = ut + 1/2 at²

=38.2 x 2.1 + 0.5 x(-8.6) x 2.1²

= 61.257 m

Therefore, the distance traveled by Ed, s = 61.257 m

4) Given,

The initial velocity of the car, u = 24.2 m/s

The final velocity of the car, v = 11.9 m/s

The time taken by the car is, t = 2.85 s

Using the first equations of motion,

v = u + at

∴ a = (v - u) / t

= (11.9 - 24.2) / 2.85

= -4.32 m/s²

Hence, the deceleration of the car, a = = -4.32 m/s²

11–8 Consider a heavy car submerged in water in a lake with a flat bottom. The driver’s side door of the car is 1.1 m high and 0

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Explanation:

position of centre of mass of door from surface of water

= 10 + 1.1 / 2

= 10.55 m

Pressure on centre of mass

atmospheric pressure + pressure due to water column

10 ⁵ + hdg

= 10⁵ + 10.55 x 1000 x 9.8

= 2.0339 x 10⁵ Pa

the net force acting on the door (normal to its surface)

= pressure at the centre x area of the door

= .9 x 1.1 x 2.0339 x 10⁵

= 2.01356 x 10⁵ N

pressure centre will be at 10.55 m below the surface.

When the car is filled with air or it is filled with water , in both the cases pressure centre will lie at the centre of the car .

If a metallic wire of cross sectional area 3.0 ´ 10-6 m2 carries a current of 6.0 A and has a mobile charge density of 4.24 ´ 10

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The drift velocity is $v_d=2.9\times 10^{-4}\ m/s.$

Explanation:

Given :

Area of metallic wire, $A = 3\times 10^{-6}\ m^2$ .

Current through wire , $I=6 \ A.$

Mobile charge density , $n=4.24\times 10^{28} \ carriers/m^3.$

Charge value , $e=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C.$

We need to find drift velocity , $v_d.$

Now, we know :

$I=neAv_d$

Therefore, $v_d=\dfrac{I}{neA}$

Putting all given values in above equation we get,

$v_d=\dfrac{6}{4.24\times 10^{28}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19} \times 3 \times 10^{-6}}$

$v_d=2.9\times 10^{-4}\ m/s.$

Hence, this is the required solution.
