<h2>
Answer:</h2>
D. (1m, 0.5m)
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
The center of mass (or center of gravity) of a system of particles is the point where the weight acts when the individual particles are replaced by a single particle of equivalent mass. For the three masses, the coordinates of the center of mass C(x, y) is given by;
x = (m₁x₁ + m₂x₂ + m₃x₃) / M ----------------(i)
y = (m₁y₁ + m₂y₂ + m₃y₃) / M ----------------(ii)
Where;
M = sum of the masses
m₁ and x₁ = mass and position of first mass in the x direction.
m₂ and x₂ = mass and position of second mass in the x direction.
m₃ and x₃ = mass and position of third mass in the x direction.
y₁ , y₂ and y₃ = positions of the first, second and third masses respectively in the y direction.
From the question;
m₁ = 6kg
m₂ = 4kg
m₃ = 2kg
x₁ = 0m
x₂ = 3m
x₃ = 0m
y₁ = 0m
y₂ = 0m
y₃ = 3m
M = m₁ + m₂ + m₃ = 6 + 4 + 2 = 12kg
Substitute these values into equations (i) and (ii) as follows;
x = ((6x0) + (4x3) + (2x0)) / 12
x = 12 / 12
x = 1 m
y = (6x0) + (4x0) + (2x3)) / 12
y = 6 / 12
y = 0.5m
Therefore, the center of mass of the system is at (1m, 0.5m)
Answer:
50%
Explanation:
Commercial aviation is responsible for 2% of global carbon emission. In the year 2009, the members of IATA (International Air Transport Association) had drawn a pledge to:
1. Halve the carbon emission due to aircraft by 2050, relative to emission of 2005
2. To make growth of industry carbon neutral by 2020
3. To cut CO₂ emission by 1.5% per year till 2020
To achieve these targets, a four pillar action plan was created.
Answer:
The work flow required by the compressor = 100.67Kj/kg
Explanation:
The solution to this question is obtained from the energy balance where the initial and final specific internal energies and enthalpies are taken from A-17 table from the given temperatures using interpolation .
The work flow can be determined using the equation:
M1h1 + W = Mh2
U1 + P1alph1 + ◇U + Workflow = U2 + P2alpha2
Workflow = P2alpha2 - P1alpha1
Workflow = (h2 -U2) - (h1 - U1)
Workflow = ( 684.344 - 491.153) - ( 322.483 - 229.964)
Workflow = ( 193.191 - 92.519)Kj/kg
Workflow = 100.672Kj/kg
Answer:Bruce is knocked backwards at

Explanation:
This is a problem of momentum (

p
) conservation, where
→
p
=
m
→
v
and because momentum is always conserved, in a collision:
→
p
f

p

We are given that

v

m

The momentum of Bruce (

Similarly, the momentum of Biff (
m

Because momentum is conserved, we know that given a momentum of
