A: 2/ Center of mass:

It is a point that all the weight concerted at it. According to the center of mass the bodies are two kinds: 1.uniform 2. Non uniform.

Moveable pulley:
A moveable pulley rises and falls with the load that is being moved. A single moveable pulley creates a mechanical advantage; however, it does not change the direction of a force.

Incliened Plane:
An inclined plane is an even sloping surface. The inclined plane may slope at any angle between the horizontal ( ---------- ) and the vertical ( | ). The inclined plane makes it easier to move a weight from a lower to higher elevation. An inclined plane is illustrated below:

The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is equal to the length of the slope divided by the height of the inclined plane.

Q3) How to identify the center of gravity for un-uniform bodies A/ Apparatus:
1. non uniform body 2. pendulum 3. Pencil 4. clamp

1. Hang the body from one of its points say(A). 2. Draw a line by the pencil passing through A 3. Change the location of the body to anther point say (B).and draw the second line passing through (B). 4. Repeat the step (3) and draw the third line at a point (c). 5. The point of intersection of the lines represent the center of mass .

Q4/What are the differences between static and kinetic friction?

Static friction 1. occur at rest 2.Velocity-0 3. Acceleration=0

Kinetic friction 1. occur at motion 2.Velocity= constant 3. Acceleration=0

4. resultant force=0 4. resultant force=0 5. Static friction Kinetic friction 5. Kinetic friction Static friction

Q5) What are different between balance and helical balance:

Balance
1. measure mass 2. principle is Torque F1 *d1 = F2 * d2 3. consist of two pans and fulcrum

Helical balance
1. measure force or weight 2. principle Hook law F= -KX 3. consist of spring scale and weight

Q8/what are the difference between mass and weight:

mass
1. the quantity of matter 2.is scalar quantity 3. it is a constant 4. its unit Kg. and gm.

Weight
1. force of gravity for a body 2. it is a vector 3. changed 4. its unit Newton and dyne

Q9) A wedge has length (25cm) and thickness (0.5cm) find the mechanical advantage. Length/thickness Q10) what are the difference between the 2nd class and 3rd lever? Which kind better? 2nd class Which kind better . Q11) A lever ( 4N) load at point 10cm from the center of rotation and of effort (0.4 N) from the center find the mechanical advantage? A/ 10
