The weight of the other object placed 1 m from the fulcrum that balances the other object is 2.5 N.

<h3>Principle of moment</h3>

The weight of the second object is determined by applying principle of moment as shown below;

take moment about the pivot,

sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment

F₁r₁ = F₂r₂

5 x 0.5 = F₂ x 1

2.5 N = F₂

Thus, the weight of the other object placed 1 m from the fulcrum that balances the other object is 2.5 N.

During a tennis volley, a ball that arrives at a player at 40 m/s is struck by the racquet and returned at 40 m/s. The other pla
Butoxors [25]

Answer:Racquet force is twice of Player force

Explanation:

Given

ball arrives at a speed of u=-40\ m/s

ball returned with speed of v=40\ m/s

average Force imparted by racquet on the ball is given by

F_{racquet}=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}

where m=mass\ of\ ball

\Delta t=time of contact of ball with racquet

F_{racquet}=\frac{m(40-(-40))}{\Delta t}

F_{racquet}=\frac{80m}{\Delta t}-----1

When it land on the player hand its final velocity becomes zero and time of contact is same as of racquet

F_{player}=\frac{m(0-40)}{\Delta t}

F_{player}=\frac{-40m}{\Delta t}-----2

From 1 and 2 we get

F_{racquet}=-2F_{player}

Hence the magnitude of Force by racquet is twice the Force by player

3. Hahn determined that barium (atomic number 56) was one of the elements created when a uranium atom (atomic number 92) split .
creativ13 [48]

According to a periodic table, Krypton was created during the fission of Uranium.

<h3>What is the atomic number?</h3>

<em>Atomic</em> number is a characteristic associated with an element and indicates its number of protons, when a fision occurs, the total number protons is conserved.

Thus, the fission of uranium is led by two elements with <em>atomic</em> numbers 56 and 36. According to a periodic table, those <em>atomic</em> numbers are associated to elements Barium (Ba) and Krypton (Kr), respectively.

According to a periodic table, Krypton was created during the fission of Uranium. \blacksquare

A 9.0-V battery moves 20 mC of charge through a circuit running from its positive terminal to its negative terminal. How much en
dem82 [27]

Answer:

E = 0.18 J

Explanation:

given,

Potential of the battery,V = 9 V

Charge on the circuit, Q = 20 m C

                                        = 20 x 10⁻³ C

energy delivered in the circuit

E = Q V

E = 20 x 10⁻³ x 9

E =  180 x 10⁻³

E = 0.18 J

Energy delivered in the circuit is equal to E = 0.18 J
