Amachine has a mechanical advantage of 0.6. what force should be applied to the machine to make it apply 600 n to an object?

1000N is needed to be applied.

Explanation:

Machines make doing work easier. They allow us use small effort to carry out work on huge amount of load.

The mechanical advantage of a machine;

(M.A) =load/effort

M.A = 0.6

Load =600N

effort =?

0.6 = 600/effort

effort = 600/0.6

effort = 1000N

"you start with 15.67 g mgco3-xh2o, when heated and all the water is removed, you are left with 7.58 g mgco3 only.

therefore, you had 15.67 - 7.58 = 8.09g h2o  

moles of each :

7.58g mgco3 = ? moles = 7.58g / 83.4g/mole = 0.09moles  

8 09g h2o = ? moles = 8.09g / 18g/mole = 0.44moles  

molar ratio between the two by dividing both numbers by the smallest number :

0.09 / 0.09 = 1  

0.44 / 0.09 = 4.8
