A truck is carrying a refrigerator as shown in the figure. The height of the refrigerator is 158.0 cm, the width is 60.0 cm. The

center of gravity of the refrigerator is 67.0 cm above the midpoint of the base.
What is the maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator doesn't tip over? (The static friction between the truck and the refrigerator is very large.)

In order for the refrigerator not to tip over, the maximum acceleration of  1.86 m/s² must not be exceeded.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The term acceleration has to do with the rate at which velocity changes with time.

We have to take the moments at the tipping point of rotation as follows;

Clockwise moment = Anticlockwise moment

Hence;

F₂ * 1.58 m = F₁ * 0.67 m

The weight at half the width= 30 cm or 0.3 m

Height of refrigerator = 158 cm 0r 1.58 cm

Then;

m * a * 1.58 = m * 9.81 * 0.30

a = 1.86 m/s²

In order for the refrigerator not to tip over, the maximum acceleration of  1.86 m/s² must not be exceeded.

What are not some emotional reactions to stress?
ahrayia [7]
Any type of physical act isn’t a emotional reaction. Things like crying or yelling or getting mad at yourself is emotional. Changes in your activity level, change in eating, sleeping, sense of humor. Increased uses in tobacco or drugs, when you’re becoming accident prone, when you’re not able to relax, when your heart rate increases, headaches, startled easily, when you’re tired all the time and sleep doesn’t help (fatigue). For women your period might change. When you get lower back pain, upset stomach, flare ups that are associated with allergies asthma or arthritis and if you get sick easier. If you lose more hair than normal for your body. If you’re blood pressure is up. Things like this is physical. You might find people will isolate themselves or blame themselves. They may have a difficulty concentrating. You can look up so many ways that stress can affect a person physically
