The vertical component of the force exerted by the hi.nge on the beam is 114.77 N.

<h3>Tension in the cable</h3>

Apply the principle of moment and calculate the tension in the cable;

Clockwise torque = TL sinθ

Anticlockwise torque = ¹/₂WL

TL sinθ = ¹/₂WL

T sinθ = ¹/₂W

T = (W)/(2 sinθ)

T = (29 x 9.8)/(2 x sin57)

T = 169.43 N

<h3>Vertical component of the force</h3>

T + F = W

F = W - T

F = (9.8 x 29) - 169.43

F = 114.77 N

Thus, the vertical component of the force exerted by the hi.nge on the beam is 114.77 N.

Compared to its weight on Earth, a 5kg object on the moon will weigh

shutvik [7]

Answer:

8.1 N/49 N=0.1653 which means 16.53% of the weight of the object on Earth.

Explanation:

On the Moon, where the gravitational constant is 1.62 $\frac{m}{s^2}$ , the weight of the 5 kg object will be: $weight_M=m*g_M = 5 kg * 1.62 \frac{m}{s^2} =8.1 N$

Where the answer is in Newtons (N) since all quantities are given in the SI system.

On Earth, on the other hand, the weight of the object is:

$weight_E=m*g_E= 5 kg* 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} = 49N$

Therefore the object's weight on the Moon compared to that on Earth will be:

$8.1N/49N=0.1653$

That is, 16.53% of the weight the object has on Earth.

Which of the following is NOT a correct statement?*

lozanna [386]

AnswerAmontons's law. If the temperature is increased, the average speed and kinetic energy of the gas molecules increase. ... If the gas volume is decreased, the container wall area decreases and the molecule-wall collision frequency increases, both of which increase the pressure exerted by the gas (Figure 1).:

A vertical, solid steel post 25 cm in diameter and 2.50m long is required to support a load of 8000kg. You can ignore the weight

Gwar [14]

(a) The stress in the post is 1,568,000 N/m²

(b) The strain in the post is 7.61 x 10⁻⁶

<h3>Area of the steel post</h3>

A = πd²/4

where;

d is the diameter

A = π(0.25²)/4 = 0.05 m²

<h3>Stress on the steel post</h3>

σ = F/A

σ = mg/A

where;

m is mass supported by the steel
g is acceleration due to gravity
A is the area of the steel post

σ = (8000 x 9.8)/(0.05)

σ = 1,568,000 N/m²

<h3>Strain of the post</h3>

E = stress / strain

where;

E is Young's modulus of steel = 206 Gpa

strain = stress/E

strain = (1,568,000) / (206 x 10⁹)

strain = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶

<h3>Change in length of the steel post</h3>

strain = ΔL/L

where;

ΔL is change in length
L is original length

ΔL = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶ x 2.5

ΔL = 1.9 x 10⁻⁵ m

You have a radioactive sample with a half-life of 1 hour. At t = 1 hour, a Geiger counter measures its radiation at 40 counts/mi

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

The half-life of a radioactive element is

t½ = 1 hr.

At the first hour, the radioactive element has 40 counts/minute

After 4 hours it has 5 counts/minute

So,

We want to filled the table.

0 hours, I.e at the start

40 counts/mins × 2 = 80 counts / mis

First half-life (first hour) is

40 counts/mins

Second half-life (second hour)

40 counts/mins × ½ = 20 counts/mins

Third half-life (third hour)

40 counts/mins × ¼ = 10 counts / mins

Fourth half life (fourth hour)

40 counts/mins × ⅛ = 5 counts / mins

So, the table is

Time........................Geiger Counter Rate

0 hours.................... 80 counts / minutes

1 hour........................ 40 counts / minutes

2 hours..................... 20 counts / minutes

3 hours..................... 10counts / minutes

4 hours...................... 5 counts / minute
