When Marcel finds the distance L from the previous part, it turns out to be greater than Lend, the distance from the pivot to th

e end of the seesaw. Hence, even with Jacques at the very end of the seesaw, the twins Gilles and Jean exert more torque than Jacques does. Marcel now elects to balance the seesaw by pushing sideways on an ornament (shown in red) that is at height h above the pivot. (Figure 3)With what force in the rightward direction, Fx, should Marcel push? If your expression would give a negative result (using actual values) that just means the force should be toward the left.Express your answer in terms of W, Lend, w, L2, L3, and h.

Answer:

Fx = - (1/h)( wL2 + wL3 - wLend )

Explanation:

Assuming The twins Gilles and Jean has a weight ( w ) each

The torque that would balance the equation would be = wL2 + wL3 -------- 1

THEREFORE the ccw torques are = wLend + Fh ----------- 2

hence equation 2 equals equation 1

= wLend + Fh = wL2 + wL3 --------- 3

equation 3 can as well be represented as

F = ( 1/h) ( wL2 + wL3 - wLend )---------- 4

From equation 4 it can be seen that F is on the left hand side therefore the value of Fx is negative

therefore equation 4 is represented as

 Fx = - (1/h)( wL2 + wL3 - wLend )

leva [86]

Answer:

Charge

Explanation:

Charge is a fundamental property of all matter. All matter has electrical and magnetic properties because the atoms that make up matter are held together by electromagnetic forces.

These charges are usually positive and negative charges. When these charges which make up an atom (positive and negative) are equal, the atom is said to be electrically neutral. When positive charge is greater than negative charge, the atom is said to positively charged. Also, if the number of negative charges are more in an atom, the atom is said to be negatively charged.

Two cars, both of mass m, collide and stick together. Prior to the collision, one car had been traveling north at a speed 2v, wh
mel-nik [20]

Answer:u=\frac{v}{2}\sqrt{5-4sin\phi }

Explanation:

Given

Both cars mass is m

and solving problem in Vertical and horizontal direction

considering + y and +x to be positive and u be the final velocity of system

Conserving Momentum in Vertical direction

m(2v)+m(-vsin\phi )=2m(ucos\theta )

2ucos\theta =v(2-sin\theta )------1

Conserving momentum in x direction

mvcos\phi =2musin\theta-----2

squaring and adding 1 &2

(2u)^2=(2v-vsin\phi )^2+(vcos\phi )^2

4u^2=4v^2+v^2-4v^2sin\phi

4u^2=5v^2-4v^2sin\phi

u=\frac{v}{2}\sqrt{5-4sin\phi }
