How does an incline plane make work easier but does not increase in force?
An inclined plane makes work easier because it allows for a longer distance over which a force can be applied. By exerting a smaller force over a longer distance, the amount of work required is reduced. However, the force exerted remains the same, as the incline does not change the magnitude of the force needed.
What is the formula for work given force distance and time?
Work = (force) x (distance). Time is not involved.But if that amount of work was done in that amount of time, then(force) x (distance)/(time) is the average power during that time.
How do you find power from force distance time and work?
Power = (work) divided by (time) If you don't know the amount of work, you can calculate it. Work = (force) times (distance).
Amount of work done per unit of time is called a what?
A watt is the amount of work per second.
What is the mathematical formula for calculating work?
The mathematical formula for calculating work is: Work = Force × Distance × cos(θ) where: Work is the amount of energy transferred or expended; Force is the amount of applied force; Distance is the displacement of the object in the direction of the force; θ is the angle between the direction of the force and the direction of displacement.
How do you decrease the amount of force needed to do work?
Decrease friction.
Is work the measure of amount of force needed to move an object a certain distance?
No, work is related to energy, not to force.
When using a lever the force needed is called the?
Work.
Which type of machine change the direction or amount of force needed to do work?
Simple
Which type of machine changes the direction or amount of the force needed to do work?
Simple
Which type of machine machine changes the direction or amount of force needed to do work?
Simple
If the machine cannot multiply the amount of work what is the advantage of using a machine?
A machine decreases the amount of force needed to work, as it distributes the force throughout a larger distance.
The amount of force times the distance an object is moved is called what?
work
Does a pulley make work easier by changing the direction of force?
Yes. It can also decrease the amount of work needed in exchange for a long distance.
Can the number of pulleys affect the amount of force to lift a heavy objects to a high place?
Increasing the number of pulleys divides the force required to lift up a heavy object; increasing the number of pulleys decreases the force needed by the person (or motor) pulling the first end of the pulley system. However, it is important to know that it does not affect the total work needed to lift up the object. As the force is decreased, the distance of rope needed increases to compensate for a conserved amount of work required for the load to be lifted.
If a simple machine decreases the amount of force needed to do a task what effect does that have on the distance needed?
because the more force the machine puts on it the farther the object will go, therefore the less work you have to do to move the object.
Which type of machine changes the direction or amount of force needed to do work?
simple machines like pulley, liver and fulcrum.
