The free body diagram of the bas is shown below:

The torque is given by:

\tau=r_{\perp}F

where F is the force and:

r_{\perp}

is the perpendicular distance between the rotation axis and the line of action of the force, which we called the moment arm. We know that the torque follows the principle of superposition then to find the total torque we need to add the torque each force exert. Before we do this we need to find the correct sign of the torque so we need to remember that if a force makes an object rotate counterclockwise then the torque is positive; otherwise it is negative. In this case Force two will exert a positive torque while the other two forces acting on the bar exert a negative torque.

For force one and the weight the moments arms are 5 m and 2.5 m, respectively. This comes from the fact that the forces are perpendicular to the rod.

For force two the moment arm is given as:

r_{\perp}=2\sin 30=1

Hence the total torque is given by:

\begin{gathered} \tau=F_2r_{\perp2}+Wr_{\perp w}+F_1r_{\perp1} \\ \tau=(150)(1)-(9.8)(2.2)(2.5)-(20)(5) \\ \tau=-3.9 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the total torque on the bar is -3.9 Nm (this means that the bar will rotate clockwise).

An unknown fluid has a specific gravity of 0.750. What is the volume of 22.5 kg of this fluid?
Andru [333]
<h2>Option C is the correct answer.</h2>

Explanation:

Specific gravity of fluid = 0.750

Density of fluid = Specific gravity of fluid x Density of water

Density of fluid = 0.750 x 1000

Density of fluid = 750 kg/m³

Mass of fluid = 22.5 kg

We have

         Mass = Volume x Density

         22.5 = Volume x 750

         Volume = 0.03 m³ = 30 L

Option C is the correct answer.

g When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel 3.2 10-15 m before
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Time, t=1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s

Explanation:

Given that,

When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel 3.2\times 10^{-15}\ m before interacting.

Let t is the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur. It will move with the speed of light. So,

t=\dfrac{d}{c}\\\\t=\dfrac{3.2\times 10^{-15}}{3\times 10^8}\\\\t=1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s

So, the time interval is 1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s

Answer:

Generally, magnets are attracted to objects that are made of the metals iron, nickel, or cobalt. These materials are called ferromagnetic materials. ... When all or most of the domains are aligned in the same direction, the whole object becomes magnetized in that direction and becomes a magnet.

Two titanium spheres approach each other head-on with the same speed and collide elastically. After the collision, one of the sp
Thepotemich [5.8K]
I know i did part a correctly. heres what i did: momentum is conserved: m1 * u - m2 * u = m2 * v or (m1 - m2) * u = m2 * v Also, for an elastic head-on collision, we know that the relative velocity of approach = relative velocity of separation (from conservation of energy), or, for this problem, 2u = v Then (m1 - m2) * u = m2 * 2u m1 - m2 = 2 * m2 m1 = 3 * m2 m1 is the sphere that remained at rest (hence its absence from the RHS), so m2 = 0.3kg / 3 m2 = 0.1 kg b) this part confuses me, heres what i did (m1 - m2) * u = m2 * v (.3kg - .1kg)(2.0m/s) = .1kg * v .4 kg = .1 v v = 4 m/s What my teacher did: (.3g - .1g) * 2.0m/s = (.3g + .1g) * v I understand the left hand side but i dont get the right hand side. Why is m1 added to m2 when m1 is at rest which makes its v = zero?? v = +1.00m/s since the answer is positive, what does that mean? Also, if v was -1.00m/s what would that mean? thanks!
