Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

I take the ladder to be 16 m not 16 cm

The position of the boys.

Each boy is 1 m from the end

The mass of the ladder is 6m form one of the boys.

The fulcrum is at his shoulders,

The other boy is 14 feet from the fulcrum

Equation

420 *6 = 14 * x The boy nearest the fulcrum contributes nothing because he is 0 distance to the fulcrum.

Solution

420*6 = 14*x                Divide by 14

420*6/14 = 14x/14        Combine

30 *6 = x

x = 180

Answer

So the boy furthest from the fulcrum lifts 180 N of the 420N ladder

The other boy contributes 420 - 180 = 240 N

Both boys are represented by an arrow pointing upward.

The ladder's mass points down

A .025 kg bullet is moving at 350 m/s when it hits and then passes through a 7 kg block of wood. After the bullet passes through
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The final velocity of the wooden block is equal to 1.035 m/s

Explanation:

Given that mass of bullet = m_{b} = 0.025kg

                Mass of wood = m_{w} = 7kg

               Initial velocity of bullet = u_{b} = 350m/s

              Final velocity of bullet = v_{b} = 60m/s

               Initial velocity of wood = o

               Final velocity of wood = v_{w]

   Here momentum is conserved so initial momentum = final momentum

            m_{b}u_{b} = m_{b} v_{b} + m_{w}v_{w} .

    Upon substituting these values in above equation , we get

        v_{w} = 1.035m/s.

What do you mean by velocity ratio of a wheel and axle​
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

In wheel and axle. …with the system is the velocity ratio, or the ratio of the velocity (VF) with which the operator pulls the rope at F to the velocity at which the weight W is raised (VW). This ratio is equal to twice the radius of the large drum divided by the difference…

A toy plane is flying in a horizontal circle by being attached to a 0.75 meter string. The plane has a mass of 101.7 grams and m
nadezda [96]

Answer:

F = 2,894 N

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

      F = m a

The acceleration is centripetal

     a = v² / r

Angular and linear variables are related.

     v = w r

Let's replace

     F = m w² r

The radius r and the length of the rope is related

    cos is = r / L

    r = L cos tea

Let's replace

    F = m w² L cos θ

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

     m = 101.7 g (1 kg / 1000g) = 0.1017 kg

      θ = 5 rev (2π rad / rev) = 31,416 rad

     w =  θ / t

     w = 31.416 / 5.1

     w = 6.16 rad / s

     F = 0.1017 6.16² 0.75 cos  θ

     F = 2,894 cos  θ

The maximum value of F is for  θ equal to zero

     F = 2,894 N

From the following statements about mechanical waves, identify those that are true for transverse mechanical waves only, those t
Dominik [7]

'In transverse waves, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the flow of energy' is true for transverse waves only.

'In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the flow of energy' is true for longitudinal waves only.

'Many wave motions in nature are a combination of longitudinal and transverse motion' is true for both longitudinal and transverse waves.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Longitudinal waves are those where the direction of propagation of particles are parallel to the medium' particles. While transverse waves propagate perpendicular to the medium' particles.

As wave motions are assumed to be of standing waves which comprises of particles moving parallel as well as perpendicular to the medium, most of the wave motions are composed of longitudinal and transverse motion.

So the option stating the medium' particle moves perpendicular to the direction of the energy flow is true for transverse waves. Similarly, the option stating the medium' particle moves parallel to the direction of flow of energy is true for longitudinal waves only.

And the option stating that wave motions comprises of combination of longitudinal and transverse motion is true for both of them.
