A uniform rod of mass m has very tiny lead balls, each of mass m, welded to each end. If the rod hangs in empty space, and a for

ce F is applied to the rod, consider three cases: A) The force is applied to the upper lead ball; B) The force is applied halfway between the upper lead ball and the center of mass of the system; C) The force is applied at the center of mass of the system.

Options:

1.Case

C2.It will be the same in all three cases.

3.Case A

4.Case B

Answer:C2. It will be the same in all three cases.

Explanation:In the above scenerio,

F, is the only net force that is acting on the System. Hence, the acceleration of the center of mass (a point in an object where a force can be applied to cause a linear acceleration without leading to an angular acceleration)is the same in each of the cases highlighted.The torque(the rotational equivalent of a linear force) depends on where the force acts.

What is one standard kilogramun si system<br><br><br><br><br>​
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The kilogram (kg) is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.62607015 ×10−34 when expressed in the unit J s, which is equal to kg m2 s−1, where the meter and the second are defined in terms of c and ∆νCs.

Jack and Jill have made up since the previous HW assignment, and are now playing on a 10 meter seesaw. Jill is sitting on one en
Airida [17]

Answer: 3 m.

Explanation:

Neglecting the mass of the seesaw, in order the seesaw to be balanced, the sum of the torques created by  gravity acting on both children  must be 0.

As we are asked to locate Jack at some distance from the fulcrum, we can take torques regarding the fulcrum, which is located at just in the middle of the length of the seesaw.

If we choose the counterclockwise direction as positive, we can write the torque equation as follows (assuming that Jill sits at the left end of the seesaw):

mJill* 5m -mJack* d = 0

60 kg*5 m -100 kg* d =0

Solving for d:

d = 3 m.

If a nearsighted person has a far point df that is 3.50m from the eye, what is the focal length f1 of the contact lenses that th
olga55 [171]

Answer:

f1= -350cm or -3.5m

f2= 22.1cm or 0.221m

Explanation:

A person is nearsighted when the person's far point is less than infinity. A diverging lens is normally used to correct this eye defect. A diverging lens has a negative focal length as seen in the solution attached.

Farsightedness is when a person's near point is farther than 25cm. This eye defect is corrected using a converging lens. The focal length of a converging lens is positive. This is evident in the solution attached. The near point is also referred to as the least distance of distinct vision.
