Answer:
Sharpening a knife reduces it's height as a wedge thus giving it more efficiency.
Explanation:
Mechanical advantage refers to the degree or quantity to which a force is increased or amplified by using a tool or a machine.
Mechanical Advantage can be calculated as follows:
Lenght of Incline (LI) / Height of Incline (HI)
Assume I have constructed a hedge with an inclination that run 10 meters from point x to point y (which is the back of a truck. Point y to the floor is 5 meters.
If LI = 10m and
HI= 5m
The mechanical advantage is given as 10/5 = 2
The angle of incline is also called the effort distance. From our calculations above, by sacrificing horizontal movement, I reduced the amount of effort it would have cost to lift up that object from ground up - a distance of 5 meters.
Think of a knife as a form of a similar wedge.
The more a knife is sharpening of a knife further reduces its angle of elevation. Thats why it becomes more efficient to use, hence our mechanical advantage.
Cheers
5. What do you think? At a baseball game, when you are far from the batter, you might see the batter hit the ball before you hear the sound of the hit. Why do you think this
happens?
Answer:
The speed of sound in air is lower compared to in solids and liquids.
Explanation:
Sound is a wave that can be generated by a vibrating body. Its speed through different media differs due to the nature of the media.
Since the molecules of solids are closely packed, sound can be easily transferred from one molecule to another at a faster rate. Thus, the high speed of sound in solids.
In liquids, the molecules are not as closely packed as solids. So that the speed of sound though liquids is lower compared to that of solids. Gases has its molecules farther apart, thus making the speed of sound through it the lowest compared to solids and liquids.
Therefore the sound of the batter hitting the ball is heard latter, due to its lower speed through the air.
What happens to waves near the shore?
Answer As a wave travels across the open ocean, it gains speed. When a wave reaches a shallow coastline, the wave begins to slow down due to the friction caused by the approaching shallow bottom. ... Think of it like driving a car at high speed and then slamming on the breaks. Everything is going to fly to the front.:Waves at the Shoreline: As a wave approaches the shore it slows down from drag on the bottom when water depth is less than half the wavelength (L/2). The waves get closer together and taller. ... Eventually the bottom of the wave slows drastically and the wave topples over as a breaker. hope this helps have a nice night❤️❤️❤️

The outside diameter of your teacher's rear bicycle tire is 16 inches. How far will he travel if the rear wheel makes 1200 revolutions on the road?
Answer:
241,274.32 inches
Explanation:
How far will he travel if the rear wheel makes 1200 revolutions on the road?
Since the rear wheel makes one revolution in the distance of a circumference of a circle, C with diameter, d = 16 inches
C = πd²/4
So, the distance, travelled in 1200 revolutions is D = 1200 × C = 1200πd²/4
Substituting d = 16 into D, we have
D = 1200πd²/4
D = 1200π(16)²/4
D = 76800π
D = 241,274.32 inches

Prompt Write about what you have learned about parts of the atom and the
Periodic Table. Explain why itis imposant to know about them.
Answer:
The table can be used to predict the properties of elements, even those that have not yet been discovered. Columns (groups) and rows (periods) indicate elements that share similar characteristics. The table makes trends in element properties apparent and easy to understand. The table provides important information used to balance chemical equations. Atoms are important because they form the basic building blocks of all visible matter in the universe. There are 92 types of atoms that exist in nature, and other types of atoms can be made in the lab. The different types of atoms are called elements. Hydrogen, gold and iron are examples of elements comprised of unique types of a single kind of atom.

A sample of hydrogen at 1.5 atm had its pressure decreased to 0.50 atm producing a new volume of 750 mL. What was its original volume?
245 ml
345 ml
123 ml
250.mL
Answer:
245 ml
Explanation:
rfdhccchhhgugvhh
The original volume of the sample of hydrogen is 250 mL. The correct option is the fourth option 250mL
From the question,
We are to determine the original volume of the hydrogen.
To do this,
We will use the Boyle's law formula
Boyle's law states that "the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure, provided that the temperature remains constant."
From Boyle's law we have that
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
Where P₁ is the initial pressure
V₁ in the initial volume
P₂ is the final pressure
and V₂ is the final volume
From the question,
P₁ = 1.5 atm
P₂ = 0.50 atm
V₂ = 750 mL
Put the above parameters into the Boyle's law equation
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
Then, we get
1.5 × V₁ = 0.50 × 750
1.5 × V₁ = 375
∴ V₁ = 375 ÷ 1.5
V₁ = 250 mL
Hence, the original volume of the sample of hydrogen is 250 mL. The correct option is the fourth option 250mL

Answer:
x = 0.537 m
Explanation:
In this exercise we are asked to find the distance that the spring is compressed, let's use the concepts of conservation of energy
starting point. Before touching the spring
Em₀ = K = ½ m v²
final point. When the spring has maximum compression
[tex]E_{f}[/tex] = [tex]K_{e}[/tex] = ½ k x²
as there is no friction the mechanical energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
½ m v² = ½ k x²

Abby is writing a biography of Isaac Newton. He was a brilliant English scientist who developed the law of universal gravitation in the 1600s. Newton also developed laws of motion and ideas about inertia. His laws and ideas were used in many subjects such as physics, astronomy, and mathematics. Explain inertia using Newton's first law of motion. Give an example of inertia.
Answer:
Over several years, Newton worked until he had developed the law of universal gravitation, which debuted in his book Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy (1869). This idea stood until the concepts of quantum theory and relativity were posed in the mid 19th century.

Describe how the motion of the particles within the popcorn changes as thermal energy is transferred. How do they start out? How does that change? What other transformations occur?
Answer:
Generally, when thermal energy is transferred to a material, the motion of its particles speeds up and its temperature increases. There are three methods of thermal energy transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. ... Convection transfers thermal energy through the movement of fluids or gases in circulation cells.
Explanation:
Answer:
Why do you think transferring energy into or out of a substance can change the molecules’ freedom of movement?
Explanation:
We know that transferring energy can cause a change in molecules' freedom of movement. Another way to say this is that transferring energy into or out of a substance can cause a phase change.
