A crowbar 27 in. long is pivoted 8 in. from the end. What force must be applied at the long end in order to lift a 600 lb object

at the short end?

pivot = 8 in

Balance lenght = 27 in - 8 in = 19 in

Load x load arm = Force x force arm

Replacing:

600 lb * 8 in = F * 19

Solve for F

F = 600 * 8 / 19

F= 252.6 lb

A loop of wire is carrying current of 2 A . The radius of the loop is 0.4 m. What is the magnetic field at a distance 0.09 m alo

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

$B=2.91\ \mu T$

Explanation:

Given that,

The current in the loop, I = 2 A

The radius of the loop, r = 0.4 m

We need to find the magnetic field at a distance 0.09 m along the axis and above the center of the loop. The formula for the magnetic field at some distance is given as follows :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o}{4\pi }\dfrac{2\pi r^2 I}{(r^2+d^2)^{3/2}}$

Put all the values,

$B=10^{-7}\times \dfrac{2\pi \times 0.4^2 \times 2}{(0.4^2+0.09^2)^{3/2}}\\\\=2.91\times 10^{-6}\ T\\\\or\\\\B=2.91\ \mu T$

So, the required magnetic field is equal to $2.91\ \mu T$ .

A baseball pitcher throws a ball horizontally at a speed of 34.0 m/s. A catcher is 18.6 m away from the pitcher. Find the magnit

Sidana [21]

To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the description of the movement through the kinematic trajectory equations, which include displacement, velocity and acceleration.

The trajectory equation from the motion kinematic equations is given by

$y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0$

Where,

a = acceleration

t = time

$v_0$ = Initial velocity

$y_0$ = initial position

In addition to this we know that speed, speed is the change of position in relation to time. So

$v = \frac{x}{t}$

x = Displacement

t = time

With the data we have we can find the time as well

$v = \frac{x}{t}$

$t = \frac{x}{v}$

$t = \frac{18.6}{34}$

$t = 0.547s$

With the equation of motion and considering that we have no initial position, that the initial velocity is also zero then and that the acceleration is gravity,

$y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0$

$y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2+0+0$

$y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

$y = \frac{1}{2} 9.8*0.547^2$

$y = 1.46m$

Therefore the vertical distance that the ball drops as it moves from the pitcher to the catcher is 1.46m.

Describe what happens to the system inside of a refrigerator or freezer in terms of heat transfer, work, and conservation of ene

Over [174]

Answer: A. Work is done on the system and heat is transferred from the system for a net decrease in internal energy.

Explanation:

A refrigerator is a device which dispenses heat from the close system to a warmer area or in the surrounding. By dispensing the heat the internal temperature of the refrigerator drops. The system of refrigerator violates the second law of thermodynamics. As it performs the work to cool the region instead of heating the region. The work is done on the system and the internal energy decreases and the heat energy is liberated to the surrounding area. A refrigerator is an open system.
