You place a 3.0-m-long board symmetrically across a 0.5-m-wide chair to seat three physics students at a party at your house. If

60-kg Dan sits on the left end of the board and 50-kg Tahreen on the right end of the board, where should 54-kg Komila sit to keep the board stable? Ignore the mass of the board and treat each student as point-like objects The positive r-direction is to the right, and the origin is at the center of the chair
Part A Determine the coordinate of the leftmost point on the board where Komila can sit to keep the board stable
Part B Determine the coordinate of the rightmost point on the board where Komila can sit to keep the board stable

Answer:

A) for leftmost point the coordinate is -0.28m that means it should be 0.28m towards the right.

B) for rightmost case the coordinate is 0.28m which is where komila should sit.

Heat transfer between two substances is affected by specific heat and the
IgorLugansk [536]

The correct answer is D. Amount of time and area of physical contact between the substances.

Explanation:

Heat transfer refers to the flow of thermal energy or heat between two or more objects. This process involves multiple factors and implies heat from the hottest object goes to the coldest one until there is an equilibrium. To begin, heat transfer depends on the amount of thermal energy in the objects because objects must have a different amount of thermal energy for heat to flow.

Besides this, the amount of energy that flows depends on the time and the contact between the substances of objects. Indeed, objects need to be in contact or close to each other for heat to transfer, and the time needs to be enough for the process to occur. For example, if you place a pot over the fire just for a few seconds it is likely the heat transferred is minimal, which does not occur if you leave the pot more time. At the same time if the pot is in close contact with fire more heat will be transferred.-

When a slice of buttered toast is accidentally pushed over the edge of a counter, it rotates as it falls. If the distance to the
Serjik [45]

Answer:

a) 5.61 rad/s

b) 16.83 rad/s

Explanation:

Distance to the floor = 79cm = 0.79m

Rotation is <1 revolution

The toast will rotate at an angular speed that is constant while it falls. The toast will also be falling with constant acceleration due to gravity. Using equation of motion, which is

S = ut + 1/2gt²

S = 0 + 1/2gt²

S = gt², where, S = d

0.79 = 9.81t²

t² = 0.79/9.81

t² = 0.081

t = 0.28s

As the toast is accidentally pushed, it rotates as it falls. It will be landing on its edges when and if it hits the ground. The smallest angle here would then be 1/4 of the revolution. This is also the smallest angular speed.

ω(min) = ΔΦ revolution /Δt

ω(min) = 1/4 * 2π / 0.28

ω(min) = 0.5π/0.28

ω(min) = 5.61 rad/s

Since 1/4 of revolution is the minimum angle, the remaining(3/4), is the maximum angle. Thus

ω(max) = 3/4 * 2π / 0.28

ω(max) = 0.75 * 2π / 0.28

ω(max) = 16.83 rad/s

A 1.0-in.-diameter hole is drilled on the centerline of a long, flat steel bar that is 1 2 thick and 4 in. wide. The bar is subj
Dominik [7]

Answer:

The answers are

The average stress = 20000 lb/in²

The maximum tensile stress immediately adjacent to the hole

= 31076.92 lb/in²

Explanation:

To solve the question we have

Weight of tensile load = 30,000 lb

Width of steel bar = 4 in

Thickness of steel bar = 1/2 in

Average Stress = Force/Area  

Size of hole drilled = 1.0 in diameter

Available width at cross section where the 1.00 in diameter hole is drilled =

(4 - 1) in = 3 inches

Cross sectional area at the point of reduced cross section due to the drilled hole = Width × Thickness (Since the item is a flat bar)

= 3 in × 1/2 in = 1.5 in²

Therefore Stress = (30000 lb)/(1.5 in²) = 20000 lb/in²

the maximum tensile stress immediately adjacent to the hole.

Bending stress = \sigma_B= \frac{M_y}{I} where I = \frac{(0.5^2 + 4^2)}{12}

0.5*30000/I = 11076.92 lb/in²

Max stress = 31076.92 lb/in²
