What principle explains why lifting heavy objects is easier using ramps?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The work involved in lifting the heavy object can be describes as:

Work = Force * Distance = mgh

Work required to lift the object to the same height is independent of the path by which it is taken there.The machines such as ramps do not decrease the work. These help in making our work easier. Due to ramp, we have to push to a longer distance but less effort i.e. less force is required to do the same amount of work.

The force to be exerted in absence of inclined plane is mg ( weight of the object). On the other hand, the force exerted on an inclined plane is reduced by sinθ (F=mg sinθ) value of sinθ lies between 0 and 1.

Hence, it becomes easier to lift a heavy object using ramp.


Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

Inclined Plane

Explanation:

An inclined plane, also known as a ramp, is a flat supporting surface tilted at an angle, with one end higher than the other, used as an aid for raising or lowering a load. The inclined plane is one of the six classical simple machines.

The basic principle of Inclined pane is as follows

W = F x D ( Force times Distance)

where W shows the word done.

Jumpering out the resistors in a resistance-controlled three-speed fan will cause the motor toa. run at highest speed.
c. run at lowest speed.
b. run at medium speed.
d. stop immediately

Answers

The answer to the question stated above is letter a. run at highest speed.

Jumpering out the resistors in a resistance-controlled three-speed fan will cause the motor to run at highest speed. If resistors are jumpered, the three-speed fan will over speed and probably burns out.

Two aircraft leave an airfield at the same time. One travels due south at an average velocity of 85 m s 1and the second travels due east at an average velocity of 71 ms −1
. Calculate the distance between the planes after 6 hours. Give your answer in km, to the nearest km. km

Answers

Answer: 2392 kilometers.

Explanation:

To find the distance between the two aircraft after 6 hours, we can use the Pythagorean theorem because they are moving at right angles to each other (one due south and the other due east). Here's how to calculate it:

First, calculate the distance traveled by each aircraft in 6 hours.

1. Aircraft traveling south:

  Distance = Velocity × Time

  Distance = 85 m/s × (6 hours × 3600 seconds/hour)

  Distance = 85 m/s × 21600 s

  Distance = 1836000 meters

2. Aircraft traveling east:

  Distance = Velocity × Time

  Distance = 71 m/s × (6 hours × 3600 seconds/hour)

  Distance = 71 m/s × 21600 s

  Distance = 1533600 meters

Now, we have the two sides of a right triangle:

- The southbound distance is 1836000 meters.

- The eastbound distance is 1533600 meters.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse (distance between the aircraft):

Distance = √(southbound distance² + eastbound distance²)

Distance = √((1836000 m)² + (1533600 m)²)

Distance ≈ √(3376416000000 m² + 2352089600000 m²)

Distance ≈ √(5728505600000 m²)

Distance ≈ 2391760.78 meters

Now, let's convert the distance to kilometers:

Distance ≈ 2391.76 kilometers

Rounding to the nearest kilometer, the distance between the two aircraft after 6 hours is approximately 2392 kilometers.
