32
What is Wout/Win represent?
Efficiency of a machine. Wout/Win = (load)(load distance)/(effort)(effort distance)
33
Describe mechanial advantage
Mechanical advantage is the ratio of magnitudes of the force exerted on an object by a simple machine (Fout) to the force of actually applied on the simple machine (Fin).
34
How does work relate to force?
W = F\*d\*cos(Ø)
35

U = ½kx2
36
What are the two components of force on inclinded planes?
Fg(parallel) = mg sinø Fg(perpendicular) = mgcosø
37

43
What is absolute pressure?
Absolute pressure in a fluid due to gravity somewhere below the surface is given by the equation P=P0+pgz
44
Describe Pascal's Principle
P= F1/A1 = F2/A2 so A1d1=A2d2 W=F1d1=F2d2 A change in the pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished to every portion of the fulid and to the walls of the containing vessel.
45
What is capacitance?
Capacitance is the ability to store charge per unit voltage. C = Q/V
46
Rate the speed at which sound travels through from fastest to slowest air, liquid, solid, vaccum
1. solid 2. liquid 3. air doesn't travel in a vaccum
47
Rate the speed at which light travels through these mediums (fastest to slowest) air vaccum water glass
1. vaccum 2. air 3. water 4. glass decreasing speed, increasing index of refraction
48
What is a galvanic cell?
redox reaction has a negative ΔG (spontaneous) there's a salt bridge oxidation occurs at the anode (negative), electrons travel from the anonde to the cathode (positive), where reduction occurs
49
What is an electrolytic cell?
The cell has a positive ΔG, nonspontaneous. Therefore electrial energy is required to start a reaction. electrons travel from the cathode (is negative) to the anode (is positive) emf is negative
