Explanation:

First problem:

The first step you always need to do is to analyse the problem to find the proper theory and equation to solve it. In this case, the equation to calculate Mechanical Advantage is: $MA=\frac{of}{if}$ ; where of means output force, and if means input force.

In this case, MA = 0.6; of = 600 N

So, replacing values into the equation: $0.6=\frac{600N}{if} [tex]if=\frac{600N}{0.6} =1000N$

This means that we need to applied a 360N force to have 600N over the object.

Second problem: It's about efficiency, which is defined as the ratio between the input and output work. It can be calculated with: $eff=\frac{W_{o} }{W_{i} } =\frac{500J}{2000J} = 0.25$ ;

$W_{o}=500J\\ W_{i}=2000J$

Which means that this machine has a 25% of efficiency.

Third problem: The difference is about the type of energy that is being transformed. In a power plant, the energy involved is chemical or electrical, nuclear power plants for example. On the other hand, dams involve only cinematic and potential energy to convert it into electric energy.

Fourth problem: This problem is about potential energy that involve gravity. The equation to calculate potential energy, includes height: PE=mgh . In this case, m = 40kg, PE = 1,568 J.

Then, we replace variables and solve fro h: $PE = mgh\\1,568 J =(40kg)(9.8m/s^{2})h$

$\frac{1,568J}{(40kg)(9.8m/s^{2} )} =h\\h=\frac{1,568}{392} m\\h=4m$

Hence, the dog is at 4m.

Fifth problem: Energies involves in a coal-fired power is thermal, potential and kinetic to produce electrical energy.

Sixth problem: A daily life potential energy example is water tanks placed at specific heights. Due to its position from the ground, the gravity and water mass, an potential energy is present there.

Mass is the amount of matter in an object. weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object. say for example, you travel to the moon which has a different gravitational field compared to the gravitational field of earth. (gravitational fields: earth = 1, moon = 0.165) now when you are on the moon, the pull of gravity on you is different than on the earth. and as weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object, that means yes, your weight can and will change on the moon. however, on the moon, on earth or even on jupiter, the amount of mass inside of you remains the same. meaning your physical mass remains constant. in conclusion it is possible for your weight to change as your mass remains constant.
