In a fixed pulley, the resistance force is equal to the effort force when neglecting friction. This means that the input force required to lift a load is the same as the output force exerted by the load. The fixed pulley changes the direction of the force but does not provide any mechanical advantage.

What happens when there is no air resistance while an object fall?

When there is no air resistance, an object will fall at its terminal velocity, which is the maximum speed it can reach due to gravity alone. In the absence of air resistance, the object will continue to accelerate until it reaches this terminal velocity, experiencing no upward force to oppose its downward motion.


How do you get the mechanical advantage of a pulley?

For a pulley, when is it that the mechanical advantage is greater than 1 and when is it that it is equal to 1? If a rope was hung over a pulley with unequal weights applied to both ends, the larger weight (77kg) would pull the lesser weight (30kg) upward, and so what would the mechanical advantage there be? The thing about this question is that if a rope were hung over a pulley and the tension at each point was the same (neglecting the mass of the rope and pulley), then how is it that if both ends of the rope point downward that the mechanical advantage becomes 2 (if there was just that one pulley)? Is the mechanical advantage any different if someone was applying a force to one end of the rope compared to gravity acting alone?


Running a boy and running a boy with piece of card in front what you feel the most air resistance?

The boy running with a piece of card in front will experience more air resistance compared to just the boy running alone. This is because the piece of card will create additional drag as it catches more air.


What does the amount of current flowing in each branch of a parallel circuit depend on?

The amount of current flowing in each branch of a parallel circuit depends on the resistance of each branch. The branch with less resistance will have more current flowing through it, while the branch with more resistance will have less current flowing. Each branch acts independently because they provide multiple paths for current to flow.

You can't bypass with a belt alone. You have to by a bypass pulley kit. The new pulley takes the place of the ac compressor and you use the same size belt.

Disconnect the battery and remove the fan assembly and crankshaft belts. Remove the center bolt from the pulley and use a crankshaft pulley remover to pull off the pulley. You can usually borrow one from an auto parts store.


What is social loafing?

Social loafing is the tendency for individuals to exert less effort when working in a group compared to when working alone. This phenomenon occurs because individuals may feel less accountable for their contributions when working as part of a group, leading to decreased motivation and effort.
