You're carrying a 3.2-m-long, 24kg pole to a construction site when you decide to stop for a rest. You place one end of the pole

on a fence post and hold the other end of the pole 35cm from its tip.How much force must you exert to keep the pole motionless in a horizontal position?NExpress your answer using two significant figures.

Answer:

Tension of 132N

Explanation:

We need to apply Summatory of Force to find the tension in the hand.

We define te tensión in the hand as F_2 and the Tension in fence post as F_1, then

\sum F = 24(9.8)

F_1 + F_2= 24(9.8)

We apply summatory of moments then

F_2*1.25 = F_1*1.6

Where the Force 2 is 1.25m from the center of summatory,

We can note that,

1.6 m - 0.35m=1.25m

We have two equation and two incognites, then replacing (1) in (2)

1.6(235.2 -F_2) = 1.25F_2

376.32 = F2(1.6+1.25)

F_2= \frac{376.32}{2.85}

F_2 =132 N

If the resistance in a circuit remains constant, what happens to the electric power when the current increases?
bearhunter [10]

If the resistance in a circuit remains constant and the current increases, then the power will increase. <em>(A)</em>

In fact, it'll increase as fast as the <em><u>square</u></em> of the current !  Like, if the current somehow increases to 3 times as much, the circuit will start using <u><em>9 times</em></u> as much power as it did before.

An object has a mass of 2000kg what is its weight on earth
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

19600 N

Explanation:

weight = mass x gravity

We know that gravity = 9.8 m/s^2 and mass = 2000 kg.

w = m x g

w = 2000 kg x 9.8 m/s^2

w = 19600 N

The weight of the object is 19600 N (newtons).
