Simply put, MA = Force Out / Force in. That's the way it is usually stated. The force out is normally what you need to move. The force in is what you need to supply to get the force out. Most machines will give you an MA of more than 1. Some (like your arm) will give you less than 1 and others (like this one) will give you exactly one.

This one is frictionless, otherwise it would slip into less than one if it had friction.

Answer:

Mechanical advantage in this situation is equal to 1.

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage of a simple machine gives a relationship between the input force applied to the output force. Mathematically, it is given by :

MA=\dfrac{F_o}{F_i}

Where

F_o\ and\ F_i are output force and input force

In this case, the weight of the crate of vegetables is 100 N

Force exerted by her to lift the crate with a pulley is 100 N

The mechanical advantage in this situation is given by :

MA=\dfrac{100}{100}=1

So, the mechanical advantage in this situation is equal to 1. Hence, the correct option is (b) "equal to 1".

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Which of the following is most likely a heavier stable nucleus? (select all that apply) Select all that apply: A nucleus with a neutron:proton ratio of 1.05 A nucleus with a A nucleus with a neutron:proton ratio of 1.49 The nucleus of Sb-123 A nucleus with a mass of 187 and an atomic number of 75

Answer:

A nucleus with a A nucleus with a neutron:proton ratio of 1.49

A nucleus with a mass of 187 and an atomic number of 75

Explanation:

The stability of a nucleus depends on the number of neutrons and protons present in the nucleus. For many low atomic number elements, the number of protons and number of neutrons are equal. This implies that the neutron/proton ratio = 1

Elements with higher atomic number tend to be more stable if they have a slight excess of neutrons as this reduces the repulsion between protons.

Generally, the belt of stability for chemical elements lie between and N/P ratio of 1 to an N/P ratio of 1.5.

Two options selected have an N/P ratio of 1.49 hence they are heavy stable elements.

Identify one disadvantage to each of the following models of electron configuration:
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The disadvantages of each of the given model of electron configuration have been mentioned below:

1). Dot Structures - They take up excess space as they do not display the electron distribution in orbitals.

2). Arrow and line diagrams make the counting of electrons and take up too much space.

3). Written Configurations do not display the electron distribution in orbitals and help in lose counting of electrons easily.

SpyIntel [72]

Answer: The are bodies of rock or gas that are named for ancient gods.

Explanation:

Earth is the THIRD planet in the solar system. It support life of all living organisms.

VENUS is the second planet in our solar system. It is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty.

MARS is the fourth planet in our solar system. It is named after the Roman goddess of war.

Thus, Venus and Mars, are EARTH NEIGHBORS

II. Pure magnesium metal is often found as ribbons and can easily burn in the presence of oxygen. When 3.86 g of magnesium ribbo
Leto [7]

Answer:

Excess=3.53g

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

2Mg(s)+O_2(g) \rightarrow 2MgO(s)

Next, we identify the limiting reactant by computing the moles of magnesium oxide yielded by 3.86 g of magnesium and 155 mL of oxygen at the given conditions via their 2:1:2 mole ratios and the ideal gas equation:

n_{MnO}^{by \ Mg}=3.86gMg*\frac{1molMg}{24.3gMg}*\frac{2molMgO}{2molMg}  =0.159molMgO\\\\n_{MnO}^{by \ O_2}=\frac{1atm*0.155L}{0.082\frac{atm*L}{molO_2*K}*275K} *\frac{2mol MgO}{1molO_2} =0.0137molMgO

It means that the limiting reactant is the oxygen as it yields the smallest amount of magnesium oxide. Next, we compute the mass of magnesium consumed the oxygen only:

m_{Mg}^{consumed}=0.0137molMgO*\frac{2molMg}{2molMgO} *\frac{24.3gMg}{1molMg} =0.334gMg

Thus, the mass in excess is:

Excess=3.86g-0.334g\\\\Excess=3.53g

Regards!
