Answer:
The factor that determines the mechanical advantage (or ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) - in the absence of frictional forces) in a simple machine is the ratio perpendicular distance of the applied force to the fulcrum to the perpendicular distance of the load to the fulcrum
The mechanical advantage can therefore by larger than 1 (requiring less force per load), or equal to 1 (effort equal to load) or less than 1( effort more than load)

An American traveler in Kenya carries a transformer to convert Kenya's standard 240 V to 120 V so that she can use some small appliances on her trip. (a) What is the ratio of turns in the primary and secondary coils of her transformer? Np Ns = (b) What is the ratio of input to output current? Iin Iout = (c) How could a Kenyan traveling in the United States use this same transformer to power her 240 V appliances from 120 V?
Answer:
a) [tex]N_{p}[/tex]/[tex]N_{s}[/tex] = 2
b) [tex]I_{in}[/tex]/[tex]I_{out}[/tex] = 0.5
c) A Kenyan travelling in the united states will now use the output terminal of the transformer in Kenya as the input terminal in the United States, to step up the voltage from 120 V to 240 V for his devices
Explanation:
Kenya's standard voltage [tex]V_{p}[/tex] = 240 V
America's standard voltage [tex]V_{s}[/tex] = 120
using the transformer relationship
[tex]V_{p}[/tex]/[tex]V_{s}[/tex] = [tex]N_{p}[/tex]/[tex]N_{s}[/tex]
substituting values, we have
240/120 = [tex]N_{p}[/tex]/[tex]N_{s}[/tex]
[tex]N_{p}[/tex]/[tex]N_{s}[/tex] = 2
b) The power input must be equal to the power output
[tex]I_{in}[/tex][tex]V_{in}[/tex] = [tex]I_{out}[/tex][tex]V_{out}[/tex]
where [tex]I_{in}[/tex] = input current
[tex]V_{in}[/tex] = input voltage = 240 V
[tex]I_{out}[/tex] = output current
[tex]V_{out}[/tex] = output voltage = 120 V
Transposing the above equation, we get
[tex]I_{in}[/tex]/[tex]I_{out}[/tex] = [tex]V_{out}[/tex]/[tex]V_{in}[/tex]
[tex]I_{in}[/tex]/[tex]I_{out}[/tex] = 120/240 = 0.5
c) A Kenyan travelling in the united states will now use the output terminal of the transformer in Kenya as the input terminal in the United States, to step up the voltage from 120 V to 240 V for his devices.

The period of a pendulum is the time it takes the pendulum to swing back and forth once. If the only dimensional quantities that the period depends on are the acceleration of gravity, g, and the length of the pendulum, ℓ, what combination of g and ℓ must the period be proportional to? (Acceleration has SI units of m • s-2.)
Answer: √(L/g)
Explanation:
Here we only work with the units:
The unit of the period is units of time, so we have:
[T] = [s]
Now, the units of the length of the pendulum are units of distance:
[L] = [m]
And the units of the acceleration are:
[g] = [m/s^2]
Now, we want to work with those two in such way that the end result is only in seconds.
First, we can see that in g we have seconds square, so we know that we should use a square root.
Then we can divide L by g in order to remove the distance unit, and to have the time unit in the numerator
[L/g] = [m*s^2/m] = [s^2]
Now we apply the square root:
[√(L/g)] = [√s^2] = [s]
Then the combination is: √(L/g)
T = k*√(L/g)
where k is the constant of proportionality.
A glacier advances at 7.4 x 10^-6 cm/s
How far will it move in 4.2 y?
Answer in units of cm.
cm/s.
Answer:
236.8 cm
Explanation:
1 yr = 365 days = (365×24×60×60) secs
= 32 × 10^6
distace = velocity × time
= 7.4 × 10^-6 × 32 × 10^6
= 236.8 cm
The glacier will move 976.8 cm when it advances at 7.4 7.4×10⁻⁶ cm/s in 4.2 y
From the question above when we talk about how far, is still the same as distance.
Applying the equation of velocity,
V = d/t................... Equation 1
Where V = velocity, d = distance, t = time
make d the subject of equation 1
d = Vt................ Equation 2
From the question,
Given: V = 7.4×10⁻⁶ cm/s, t = 4.2 year = (4.2×3.154×10⁷) seconds = 1.32×10⁸ seconds
Substitute these values into equation 2
d = (7.4×10⁻⁶)(1.32×10⁸)
d = 9.768×10² cm
d = 976.8 cm
Hence the glacier will advances 976.8 cm

A 0.35 m2 coil with 50 turns rotates at 5 radians per sec2 in a magnetic field of 0.6 Tesla. What is the value of the rms current in the coil if the coil has the resistance of 3.3 Ω?
Answer:
11.25 amps
Explanation:
For transformers, the magnetic flux
[tex]\Phi _{max} = \beta \times A[/tex]
Therefore;
[tex]\Phi _{max} = 0.6 \times 0.35 = 0.21 \ Weber[/tex]
Ф = Фmax (cosωt) = 0.21·(cos(5·t))
From Faraday's law of induction, we have;
ε = -N × dΦ/dt
Which gives;
dΦ/dt = -1.05(sin (5t) )
ε = -N × dΦ/dt = -50× -1.05(sin (5t) )
ε = 52.5(sin (5t) )
I = ε/R = 52.5(sin (5t) )/3.3 = 15.9091(sin (5t) ) amps
The peak current is therefore = 15.9091 amps
The rms current = Peak current /√2 = 15.9091/(√2) = 11.25 amps.

A Carnot air conditioner takes energy from the thermal energy of a room at 61°F and transfers it as heat to the outdoors, which is at 98°F. For each joule of electric energy required to operate the air conditioner, how many joules are removed from the room?
Answer:
14.07 units of joules is removed for each joules of electricity used
Explanation:
The heated room temperature [tex]T_{c}[/tex] = 61 °F
The outside temperature [tex]T_{h}[/tex] = 98 °F
For conversion from fahrenheit to kelvin we use the equation
(32°F − 32) × 5/9 + 273.15
[tex]T_{c}[/tex] = 289.26
[tex]T_{h}[/tex] = 309.82
For air conditioning,
COP = [tex]\frac{T_{c} }{T_{h} -T_{c} }[/tex]
COP = [tex]\frac{289.26 }{309.82 -289.26 }[/tex] = 14.07
This means that 14.07 units of joules is removed for each joules of electricity used

hooke's law is described mathematically using the formula fsp=-kx. which statement is correct about spring force, fsp? A. It is always a positive force B. It is larger than the applied force C. It is the force doing the push or pull D. It is a vector quantity
Answer:
A. It is always a positive force
Explanation:
Hooke's law describes the relation between an applied force and extension ability of an elastic material. The law states that provided the elastic limit, e, of a material is not exceeded, the force, F, applied is proportional to the extension, x, provided temperature is constant.
i.e F = - kx
where k is the constant of proportionality, and the minus sign implies that the force is a restoring force.
The applied force can either be compressing or stretching force.
Monochromatic light shines on the cathode in a photoelectric effect experiment, causing the emission of electrons. If the frequency of the light stays the same but the intensity of the light shining on the cathode is increased:_________
a. The emitted electrons will be moving at a higher speed.
b. There will be more electrons emitted.
c. Neither A nor B are true.
d. Both A and B are true
Answer:
b. There will be more electrons emitted.
Explanation:
In photoelectric emission, the energy of the emitted electron is dependent on the frequency of the wave incident on the plate; but not the intensity. The rate of electron emission per unit time however depends on the intensity of the incident light. So increasing the intensity of the light at constant frequency will only affect the number of electrons emitted per unit time.
A foot is 12 inches and a mile is 5280 ft, exactly. A centimeter is exactly 0.01m or mm. Sammy is 5 feet and 5.3 inches tall. What is Sammy's Height in inches?
The answer is 65.3 inches tall
Explanation:
To know the heigh of Sammy in inches it is necessary to convert the 5 feet to inches and add this number to 5.3 inches as the statement mentions "Sammy is 5 feet and 5.3 inches tall". Additionally, it is known each foot is equal to 12 inches ( 1 foot = 12 inches). According to this, the simplest method to convert feet to inches is to multiply the feet given by 12. The process is shown below:
1 foot = 12 inches
feet to inches = number of feet x 12
5 feet x 12 = 60 inches
This means 5 feet is equal to 60 inches. Now, 60 inches + 5.3 inches = 65.3 inches (total height of Sammy in inches)

The Displacement x of particle moving in one dimension under the action of constant force is related to the time by equation 4x³+3x²-5x+2 , where x is in meters and t is in sec.
a)Find velocity of particle at i) t=2 sec ii) t=4 sec.
b) Find the acceleration of the particle at t=3 sec.
Explanation:
It is given that,
The Displacement x of particle moving in one dimension under the action of constant force is related to the time by equation as:
[tex]x=4t^3+3t^2-5t+2[/tex]
Where,
x is in meters and t is in sec
We know that,
Velocity,
[tex]v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\v=\dfrac{d(4t^3+3t^2-5t+2)}{dt}\\\\v=12t^2+6t-5[/tex]
(a) i. t = 2 s
[tex]v=12(2)^2+6(2)-5=55\ m/s[/tex]
At t = 4 s
[tex]v=12(4)^2+6(4)-5=211\ m/s[/tex]
(b) Acceleration,
[tex]a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}\\\\a=\dfrac{d(12t^2+6t-5)}{dt}\\\\a=24t+6[/tex]
Pu t = 3 s in above equation
So,
[tex]a=24(3)+6\\\\a=78\ m/s^2[/tex]
Hence, (a) (i) v = 55 m/s (ii) v = 211 m/s and (b) 78 m/s²
Can someone please illustrate how the refracted ray will look like?
Answer
As the angle of incidence increases in Figure 2.8, a point is finally reached where the refracted ray does not emerge at the second layer but lie along the interface. This particular angle of incidence at which the angle of refraction is 90° and the refracted ray lies along the interface is known as the critical angle. At and beyond the critical angle, there is no transmitted ray and therefore a very high reflected ray will be recorded .
Therefore,
sinθisin90=Vp1Vp2
But, sin 90 = 1.
At critical angle,
sinθcritical=Vp1Vp2
A critical refracted wave travels along the interface between layers and is refracted back into the upper layer at the critical angle. The waves refracted back into the upper layer are called head waves or first-break refractions because at certain distances from a source, they are the first arriving energy. Recorded first-break refraction is shown in Figure 2.10.
Note that these first-break refractions can give us important information about the shallow velocities on land seismic data.
Note also that seismic data are acquired in such a way that reflections from horizons of interest are in the pre-critical region, even at the farthest offset in the data.
In reality, part of the seismic energy arriving at an interface is transmitted and refracted, and another part of the energy is reflected at that same interface. Given that there are many reflectors in the subsurface, there will be many paths from source to receiver, each of them with a different travel time. The proportion of energy reflected depends on the material properties of the two bounding layers and on the angle of incidence
In no more than five simple statements, use the kinetic theory to explain why an iron bar expands when it is heated.
Answer:
Iron expands because heating increases the space between the molecules
Explanation:
According to the kinetic molecular theory, all matter is composed of atoms and molecules which are in constant motion.
When a substance is heated, molecules of the substance begin to vibrate faster. This faster vibration leads to increased space between the molecules (expansion) . The kind of motion motion and degree of spacing of the molecules determine the state of matter in which the substance is found.
Hence, when an iron bar is heated, it expands due to increased motion of its molecules leading to spaces between them.
