How does a wheel and axle make work easier?

Answers

Answer 1

The wheel and axle is a simple machine that reduces the friction involved in moving an object, making the object easier to transport. ... Once the object is moving, the force of friction opposes the force exerted on the object. The wheel and axle makes this easier by reducing the friction involved in moving an object.

In addition to reducing friction, a wheel and axle can also serve as a force multiplier, according to Science Quest from Wiley. If a wheel is attached to an axle, and a force is used to turn the wheel, the rotational force, or torque, on the axle is much greater than the force applied to the rim of the wheel.

Find the work done by a man who is pulling a box of 45kg of mass by means of rope which makes angle of 45 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

0

Explanation:

Since no distance is given, the force is not doing any work

No work is done by the man since we do not know the distance or displacement.

Work is only said to be done when the force applied on an object moves it through a particular distance.

 Work done  = Force x distance.

Since no distance is given in this problem, we can as well assume that the force applied is doing no work on the object.

1. A person riding a bicycle on level ground reaches a velocity of 13.4 m/s before
stopping. While braking, the internal energy of the brakes, wheels, and road
increase by 5836 J. What is the mass of the cyclist?

Answers

To answer this question, you need to recognize that energy is conserved. The initial energy was kinectic and then transferred to internal; therefore, in this problem, (aka final energy) internal energy = kinectic energy (aka initial energy).

Kinectic energy = 0.5 * m * v^2

5836 = 0.5 * m * (13.4)^2
89.78m = 5836
Mass = 65 kgs

If the base runner leaves the base before the ball is caught in the outfield, what should the defence do?

Answers

Answer:

Well it depends

Explanation:

If the runner leaves the base before

the ball is caught the defence cannot do anything exept  

catch the  ball if they catch the ball while he is still running he has to get back to the base before they could tag him or the base if they tag him or the base before he can get back to his base he is out if they did not  catch the ball the runner can run as long as he wants just cant get taged the defence has to get the ball in as fast as possible to get the runner out.

A 2-kg ball traveling eastward at 5 m/s hits a 5-kg ball moving at 1 m/s eastward. The 2-kg ball bounces west at 3.0 m/s. What is the speed of the 5kg ball?

Answers

Answer:

1.8 m/s

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

m1= 2kg

u1= 5m/s

m2= 5kg

u2= 1m/s

v1= 3m/s

From

m1u1+m2u2= m1v1+m2v2

substitute

2*5+5*1 = 2*3+5*v2

10+5= 6+5v2

15-6= 5v2

9= 5v2

divide both side by 5

v2= 9/5

v2= 1.8 m/s

Answer:

Superficial anatomy.

Explanation:

Superficial anatomy can be defined as the physical examination of the external parts of a living organism such as ankle, nose, skin, knee, toes, fingers, cornea etc.

Hence, superficial anatomy is also popularly referred to as surface anatomy.

In this scenario, a patient arrives at an emergency room complaining of pain in her ankle. The nurse examines the patient’s ankle, looking for skin discoloration or swelling. The nurse is relying mostly on his knowledge of superficial anatomy by studying or examining the patient's ankle for any sign of decoration or swelling on the skin.

A box weighs 1300 N. When a horizontal force of 390 N has applied the box accelerates at 1.3 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the frictional force?

Answers

Answer:

Ffriction = 217.7[N]

Explanation:

First, we must find the mass of the box, we must remember that the weight is defined as the product of the mass by acceleration.

[tex]w=m*g[/tex]

where:

w = weight [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

[tex]1300=m*9.81\\m=132.51[kg][/tex]

Now we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

∑F sum of forces

m = mass = 132.51[kg]

a = acceleration = 1.3[m/s²]

We must know that the forces that act are the horizontal force that moves the box and the friction force in the negative direction that acts against the movement.

Now replacing:

[tex]390-f_{friction}=132.51*1.3\\390-172.26=f_{friction}\\f_{friction}=217.7[N][/tex]

What can always be said about a negatively-charged ion?
A negatively-charged ion always has more neutrons than protons
A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons
A negatively-charged ion always has more protons than electrons
A negatively-charged ion always has more protons than neutrons

Answers

Answer: A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

Explanation:

First, we know that the elementary negative charge is the electron, while the positive one is the proton. Such that both have the same charge in magnitude, but a different sign. Such that if we have the same number of electrons and protons in an atom, the charge of this atom will be neutral.

And an ion is an atom with a different number of electrons and protons, so the charge of the atom is not neutral.

Then if we have a negatively-charged ion, the charge of this atom is negative. Then we must have a larger number of electrons (the negative ones) than protons (the positive ones)

Then the correct option is:

A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

How does attachment affect exploration? Be sure to include findings from both Harlow and Ainsworth in your response.

Answers

“The monkey became attached to the cloth mother so it developed a sense of security. ... In both Ainsworth and Harlow's studies it goes to show that a child social development is dependent on the attachment of a caregiver or mother.”

Answer:

Attachment can affect many things. When you go back to the experiment, you see that they are testing 4 monkeys. They want to see if they would go to the cloth mother or the wire mother. But that is just the base of the experiment. Once the monkeys pick the mother, they have attached themselves to the mother, because animals will pick what is mother, because once you are born, the "hunger games" begin in the wild. They will stay by their mother's side until they are grown and ready to go on their own. When you think about this whole experiment, you know that this experiment was designed as a test of the relative importance of contact comfort. They could have picked any animal for this, and the outcome would have been very similar because as a baby you need to find things that you trust and that is your mother.

A body with mass 2 kg absorbs heat 418.4J when its temperature raises from 293K to 343K . What is the specific heat of the body?

Answers

Answer:

C M (change in T) = heat absorbed      thermal equation for heat gained

C = 418.4 J / (2 kg * 50 deg K) = 4.184 J / kg * deg K     specific heat

Note: 1 gm =.001 kg

So C = .004184J / gm * deg K

Also, 1 J = .239 cal   so in conventional terms

C = .001 cal / gm deg K     (very low, water would be 1 cal / gm deg C

Global warming may cause all of the given choices.

Global warming is the rise in surface temperature. This is due to the trapping of heat within the earth surface.

It is as a result of huge amount of greenhouse gases within our atmosphere. They typically permit short wave radiations to escape and they do not allow short wave radiation to pass through. This in turn produces heat.

The heat can melt polar ices and glaciers. This in turn will cause sea levels to rise. Also, the ocean temperature will generally increase due to this.
