When the pivot point of a balance is not at the center of mass of the balance, how is the net torque on the balance calculated

Physics
1 answer:
Mashcka [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It is calculated as Force × perpendicular distance.

Explanation:

Torque is a rotational force and twisting force that can cause an object to rotate in it's axis. This cause angular rotation.

The torque due to gravity on a body about its centre of mass is zero because the centre of mass is the that point of the body at which the force acts by the gravity that is mg.

But if the pivot point of a balance is not at the centre of mass of the balance, it will be FORCE × PERPENDICULAR DISTANCE because at that point, there is no centre in which the force act on a body by gravity. The distance and force will be use to calculate.

A six pack of your favorite beverage (12 fl. oz. cans, assumed to have the same characteristics as water) is placed in a cooler
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Q = 169 BTU

Explanation:

As we know that volume is given as

V = 12 Fl oz

so it is given in liter as

V = 12 fl oz = 0.355 Ltr

now we have six pack of such volume

so total volume is given as

V = 6\times 0.355 Ltr

V = 2.13 ltr

so its mass is given as

m = 2.13 kg

now the change in temperature is given as

\Delta T = 70 - 34 = 36 ^oF

\Delta T = 20^oC

now the heat given to the liquid is given as

Q = ms\Delta T

Q = 2.13(4186)(20)

Q = 1.78 \times 10^5 J

Q = 169 BTU

topjm [15]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is easier to see clothes with pointed needle than a blunt one because pressure exerted is more in a pointed needle as it occupies less space compared to blunt needle, A blunt has more surface area so the pressure exerted will less as compared to a pointed needle.

g typical coffee mug holds up to 12 oz (340 grams) of water. How much heat energy is required to warm enough water from 23⁰C to
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat required to raise the temperature

= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

= .34 x 4200 x ( 95 - 23 )

= 102816 J .

1 kWh = 1000 x 60 x 60 J

= 3600000 J

102816 J  = 102816 / 3600000

= .02856 kWh .

Tema [17]
That ratio is the efficiency of whatever the power went into and came out of. There's no reason the efficiency has to be expressed as a percentage.
