Explanation of how a lever works and how to calculate its mechanical advantage when lifting a load with a given input force.
A lever is a simple machine that consists of a rigid bar pivoted at a fixed point called the fulcrum. It helps in exerting a smaller force over a longer distance to lift a heavier load over a shorter distance.
The mechanical advantage of a lever is calculated by dividing the length of the effort arm by the length of the load arm (MA = Le/Lr). It tells how many times a lever multiplies the input force to lift a load.
In the described scenario, with an input force of 500 N and a load of 2000 N, the mechanical advantage of the lever can be calculated using the formula MA = Load / Effort, which will be 4.

Which statements about Earth’s core help explain Earth’s magnetic field? Check all that apply.
Earth’s core is composed of magnets.
The inner core is solid.
The outer core is solid.
The inner core is liquid and moving.
The outer core is liquid and moving.
Earth’s core is composed of iron and nickel.
Answer:
The inner core is solid.
The outer core is liquid and moving.
Earth’s core is composed of iron and nickel.
Explanation:
Convection currents are produced in the outer liquid core. This motion together with the Earth's rotation creates a system of electrical currents, since it is composed of metals such as iron and nickel. The magnetic fields generated by the electric currents align, creating the Earth's magnetic field. The solid inner core acts as a stabilizer of the magnetic field generated by the liquid outer core.
A mass m = 4.6 kg hangs on the end of a massless rope L = 2.16 m long. The pendulum is held horizontal and released from rest.
1)How fast is the mass moving at the bottom of its path?2)What is the magnitude of the tension in the string at the bottom of the path?
ind the velocity my using the conservation of energy mgh=1/2mv^2. At the bottom, the mass is turning in a circle with tension pointing up towards the center of the circle and weight pointing down. Use the centripetal force requirement mv^2/r=T-W and solve for T. Hope this helps.
The speed of the mass at the bottom of its path is approximately 6.51 m/s, and the tension in the string at that point is approximately 141.4 N, which is calculated using the conservation of energy and understanding the forces in a circular motion.
To solve both parts of the problem involving the mass hanging on the end of a massless rope and released from rest, we apply principles of physics, specifically conservation of energy and dynamics of a simple pendulum. Conservation of energy tells us that the potential gravitational energy at the top is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom of its path. The tension in the string at the bottom can be calculated by understanding the forces acting on the mass at that point, which include the centripetal force necessary to maintain its circular path and the gravitational force pulling it downward.
Using conservation of energy, we have:
Potential Energy at top (U): U = mgh = mgL
Kinetic Energy at bottom (K): K = 1/2 m[tex]v^2[/tex]
Setting U equal to K gives us:
mgL = 1/2 m[tex]v^2[/tex]
From which we can solve for v, the speed at the bottom:
v = [tex]\sqrt{2gL}[/tex]
Substituting in the values (g = 9.8 m/[tex]s^2[/tex], L = 2.16 m),
v = [tex]\sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times 2.16} = \sqrt{42.336} \approx 6.51 m/s[/tex]
The tension in the string (T) at the bottom is the sum of the gravitational force and the centripetal force required to keep the mass moving in a circle:
T = mg + m[tex]v^2[/tex]/L
Substituting in the known values:
T = 4.6 × 9.8 + 4.6 × [tex](6.51)^{2/2.16}[/tex]
T = 45.08 + 4.6 × (42.3961)/2.16
T = 45.08 + 96.3273
T = 141.4073 N
The tension at the bottom of the path is approximately 141.4 N.
The following graph shows the rates of decay for four parent isotopes. Based on the graph, which parent isotope most likely has a half-life of 13 billion years?
A
B
C
D
Answer:
A or B (mostly A)
Explanation:
After 14 billion years, approximately 85% of the original parent isotope will still exist, compared to roughly 45% of parent isotope C, 12.5% of parent isotope B, and nearly none of the parent isotope A!
We know curve D represents the parent isotope with the longest half-life, and curve A represents the parent isotope with the shortest half-life!
We also know it cannot be D or C. So we are stuck with curves B and A! However, since parent isotope B has 12.5% parent isotopes left after 14 billion years(1billion years before the year we are talking about), and nearly none of the parent isotope A is left, this leads me to beleive that the answer is curve, or parent isotope, A!
I am sorry if i am wrong though.

A 70kg divers steps off of a 10m tower and drops from rest straight into the water. If he comes to rest 5m beneath the surface, determine the average resistance force exerted on him by the water.
First, we need to calculate the total distance that the diver travelled. The diver jumped off a 10-meter tower and went 5 meters under the water. Therefore, the total distance travelled by the diver is 10 meters (from the tower) plus 5 meters (underwater), which equals 15 meters.
Next, we will determine the work done on the diver. The work done is equal to the change in potential energy, which can be calculated by multiplying the diver's mass by gravity and then by the total distance the diver travelled. Given that the diver's mass is 70kg and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s², the work done is 70kg * 9.8m/s² * 15m, which equals 10290 Joules.
Finally, we'll find the average resistance force exerted on the diver by the water. The work done on the diver is also equal to the average force times the distance. Therefore, the average force is the work done divided by the distance. When you divide the work done (10290 Joules) by the total distance travelled (15 meters), you get an average force of 686 Newtons.
Hence, the total distance travelled by the diver in water is 5 meters, the work done on the diver is 10290 Joules, and the average resistance force exerted on the diver by the water is 2058 Newtons.

Where,
vf: final speed
vo: initial speed
t: time

An artillery shell is fired at an angle of 62.7
above the horizontal ground with an initial
speed of 1520 m/s.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 .
Find the total time of flight of the shell,
neglecting air resistance.
Answer in units of min ...?
To find the total time of flight of the artillery shell, we can use the kinematic equation for vertical motion. By calculating the vertical component of the initial velocity and plugging in the known values, we can solve for the time of flight. Finally, we can convert the time to minutes by dividing by 60.
Explanation:To find the total time of flight of the shell, we can use the kinematic equation for vertical motion: d = v0yt + 0.5gt2. In this equation, d represents the vertical displacement of the shell (which is 200 m), v0y represents the vertical component of the initial velocity (which can be found using v0y = v0sin(θ)), t represents the time of flight, and g represents the acceleration due to gravity.
Since the shell is fired at an angle of 62.7° above the horizontal, the vertical component of the initial velocity can be calculated as v0y = 1520 m/s * sin(62.7°). Plugging in the known values, we can solve for t.
Once we have the time of flight, we can convert it to minutes by dividing by 60 (since there are 60 seconds in a minute).

The gravitational force between a satellite and Earth’s moon is 324 N. The mass of the moon is 7.3 × 1022 kg. If the distance from the moon to the satellite is 2.6 × 106 m, what is the mass of the satellite?
Answer:
449.824 kg
Explanation:
F = Gm₁m₂/r²
Above equation can be used to find the gravitational force between two objects.
Here F is the Gravitational force. m₁ , m₂ are the masses of the objects and r is the distance between the objects. Let's take m₁ as the mass of the moon. Then m₂ is the mass of the satellite.
We are given that F = 324 N , m₁ = 7.3 * 10²²kg and r = 2.6 * 10 ⁶m.
324 = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ × m₁ × 7.3×10²² / (2.6 × 10⁶)²

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance? If we
A: decrease the resistance, and do not change the voltage, the current will decrease.
B: decrease the voltage, and do not change the resistance, the current will also decrease.
C: increase the resistance, and do not change the current, the voltage will remain the same.
D: increase the current, and increase the resistance, the voltage will decrease.
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
According to ohm's law, the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current is that current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage over resistance.
Mathematically, I = [tex]\frac{V}{R}[/tex]
From this relationship we can see that when we decrease the voltage, and do not change the resistance, the current will also decrease. As current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance.
