A gymnast with mass 46.0 kg stands on the end of a uniform balance beam as shown. The beam is 5.00 m long and has a mass of 250

kg (excluding the mass of the two supports). Each support is 0.540 m from its end of the beam. What are the forces on the beam due to support 1 (F1) and support 2 (F2)?

Sum up the moments of the right and the left support:
∑ M2 = 0
F1 · 3.92 m = 46 kg · 9,81 m/s² · 4.46 m + 250 kg · 9.81 m/s² · 1.96 m
F 1 · 3.92 = 2012.6 + 4806.9
F 1 = 6819.5 : 3.92
F 1 = 1739.67 N
∑ M 1 = 0
F 2 · 3.92 m + 46 kg · 9.81 m/s² · 0.54 m = 250 kg · 9.81 m/s² · 1.96 m
F 2 · 3.92 + 243.68 = 4806.9
F 2 · 3.92 = 4563.22
F 2 = 4563.22 : 3.92
F 2 = 1164 N
Answer: The forces on the beam are: F 1 = 1739.67 N and F 2 = 1164 N.

What is the ACCELERATION of a 50 kg object pushed with a force of 500 newtons *
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>10 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

To find the acceleration of an object given the force and mass we use the formula

<h3>acceleration =  \frac{force}{mass}</h3>

From the question

mass of object = 50 kg

force = 500 N

So the acceleration is

<h3>acceleration =  \frac{500}{50}  \\  =  \frac{50}{5}</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>10 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

Two subway stops are separated by 1210 m. If a subway train accelerates at 1.30 m/s2 from rest through the first half of the dis
solong [7]

Answer:

Part 1) Time of travel equals 61 seconds

Part 2) Maximum speed equals 39.66 m/s.

Explanation:

The final speed of the train when it completes half of it's journey is given by third equation of kinematics as

v^{2}=u^2+2as

where

'v' is the final speed

'u' is initial speed

'a' is acceleration of the body

's' is the distance covered

Applying the given values we get

v^2=0+2\times 1.30\times \frac{1210}{2}\\\\v^{2}=1573\\\\\therefore v=39.66m/s

Now the time taken to attain the above velocity can be calculated by the first equation of kinematics as

v=u+at\\\\v=0+1.30\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{39.66}{1.30}=30.51seconds

Since the deceleration is same as acceleration hence the time to stop in the same distance shall be equal to the time taken to accelerate the first half of distance

Thus total time of journey equalsT=2\times 30.51\approx61seconds

Part b)

the maximum speed is reached at the point when the train ends it's acceleration thus the maximum speed reached by the train equals 39.66m/s

Which best describes the surface of a concave mirror? It is flat. It is textured. It curves outward. It curves inward.
Sonja [21]

The concave mirror is a spherical-shaped mirror that has an inner curved surface. Hence, option (4) is correct.

What is a concave mirror?

The concave mirrors are spherical-shaped mirrors that are painted on the outward surface. It is also known as the converging mirror, having the recessed inner reflecting surface.

  • The concave mirrors are generally used for the purpose to focus the light. For that, they might have a reflecting surface, curved inwards, and the reflection of light is limited to the single focal point.
  • The reflecting surface of the concave mirror has its vertex or midpoint lying farther away from the objects than the edges.

Thus, we can conclude that the surface of the concave mirror is curved inward. Hence, option (4) is correct.
