I don't exactly understand the substance of the question so im going to assume that the answer you are looking for is buoyancy. Buoyancy determines whether something sinks or floats in water. A ship has a larger buoyancy due to the shape of the hull, a nail is does not and will sink.

Three beads are placed on the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side d = 3.4cm. The first bead of mass m1=140gis placed on
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Xcm = 1.95 cm  and Ycm = 1.76 cm

Explanation:

The very useful concept of mass center is

     R cm = 1/M  ∑ m_{i}  r_{i}

Where ri, mi are the mass positions of the bodies from some reference point by selecting and M is the total mass of the body.

Let's look for the total mass

     M = m₁ + m₂ + m₃

     M = 140 + 45 + 85

     M = 270 g

Let's look for the position of each point

Point 1. top vertex, if the triangle has as side d

      R₁ = d / 2 i ^ + d j ^

      R₁ = (1.7 cm i ^ + 3.4 j ^) cm

Point 2. left vertex. What is the origin of the system?

      R₂ = 0

Point 3. Right vertex

      R₃ = d i ^

      R₃ = 3.4 i ^ cm

a) The x component of the massage center

      Xcm = 1 / M (m₁ x₁ + m₂ x₂ + m₃ x₃)

      Xcm = 1 / M (m₁ d / 2 + 0 + m₃ d)

      Xcm = d / M (m₁ / 2 + m₃)

b)   Let's write the mass center component x

      Xcm = 1/270 (1.7 140 + 0 + 3.4 85)

      Xcm = 238/270

      Xcm = 1.95 cm

c) let's find the component and center of mass

     Ycm = 1 / M (m₁ y₁ + m₂ y₂ + m₃ y₃)

    Ycm = 1 / M (m₁ d + 0 + 0)

    Ycm = m₁ / M d

d) let's calculate

    Y cm = 1/270 (140 3.4 + 0 + 0)

    Ycm = 1.76 cm

Answer:

The oven has many different heat sources from the bottom, sides, top, etc...

The microwave only has the sides.

A descending elevator of mass 1,000 kg is uniformly decelerated to rest over a distance of 8 m by a cable in which the tension i
Stolb23 [73]

The speed  V_{i} of the elevator at the beginning of the 8 m descent is nearly 4 m/s. Hence, option A is the correct answer.

We are given that-

the mass of the elevator (m) = 1000 kg ;

the distance the elevator decelerated to be y = 8m ;

the tension is T = 11000 N;

let us determine the acceleration 'a' by using Newton's second law of motion.

∑Fy = ma

W - T = ma

(1000kg x 9.8 m/s² ) - 11000N = 1000 kg x a

9800 - 11000 = 1000

a = - 1.2 m/s²

Using the equation of kinematics to determine the initial velocity.

V_{f} ² = V_{i}² + 2ay

V_{i} = √ ( 2 x 1.2m/s² x 8 m )

V_{i} = √19.2 m²/s²

V_{i} = 4.38 m/s   ≈ 4 m/s

Hence, the initial velocity of the elevator is 4m/s.
