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

Mashcka [7]3 years ago

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 wire of a certain material has resistance r and diameter d a second wire of the same material and length is found to have resi
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

<h2>d₂ = 3d</h2><h2>The diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire.</h2>

Explanation:

Using the formula for calculating the resistivity of an object to find the diameter.

Resistivity P = RA/L

R is the resistance of the material

A is the cross sectional area

L is the length of the material

Since A = πd²/4

P = R( πd²/4)/L

P = Rπd²/4L ... 1

If the second wire of the same material and length is found to have resistance R/9, the resistivity of the second material will be;

P₂ = (R/9)A₂/L₂

P₂ = (R/9)(πd₂²/4)/L₂

P₂ = (Rπd₂²/36)/L₂

P₂ = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂

Since the length and resistivity are the same;

P = P₂  and L =L₂

Equating 1 and 2;

Rπd²/4L =  (Rπd₂²)/36L₂

Rπd²/4L =  (Rπd₂²)/36L

d² = d₂²/9

d₂² = 9d²

Taking the square root of both sides;

√d₂² = √9d²

d₂ = 3d

Therefore the diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire

Total potential and kinetic energy of an object.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The Total Mechanical Energy

As already mentioned, the mechanical energy of an object can be the result of its motion (i.e., kinetic energy) and/or the result of its stored energy of position (i.e., potential energy). The total amount of mechanical energy is merely the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy.
