Answer:
Explanation:
Balance point will be achieved as soon as the weight of the baby elephant creates torque equal to torque created by weight of woman about the pivot. torque by weight of woman
weight x distance from pivot
= 500x 5
= 2500 Nm
torque by weight of baby woman , d be distance of baby elephant from pivot at the time of balance
= 2500x d
for equilibrium
2500 d = 2500
d = 1 m
So elephant will have to walk up to 1 m close to pivot or middle point.
Answer:
1
Explanation:
How many digits are in front of the decimal in scientific notation?
The weight of the box is (mass) x (gravity) = (50 kg) x (9.8m/s²) = 490 newtons.
If the box is sliding at constant speed, and not speeding up or slowing down,
that means that the horizontal forces on it add up to zero.
Since you're pushing on it with 53N in <em><u>that</u></em> direction, friction must be pulling
on it with 53N in the <u><em>other</em></u> direction.
The 53N of friction is (the weight) x (the coefficient of kinetic friction).
53N = (490N) x (coefficient).
Divide each side by 490N : Coefficient = (53N) / (490N) = 0.1082 .
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, that's <em>0.11 </em>. (choice 'd')
Answer:
Height above a surface
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy is the energy which an object possesses due to its position above a surface.
It is also the amount of work a force has to do in order to bring an object from a particular position to a point of reference.
It is given mathematically as:
P. E. = m*g*h
where m = mass of the body
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height above a surface
m*g represents the weight of the object.
Hence, Gravitational potential energy is the product of an object's weight and its height above a surface/reference point.
