Answer:
x = 0.6034 m
Explanation:
Given
L = 5 m
Wplank = 225 N
Wman = 522 N
d = 1.1 m
x = ?
We have to take sum of torques about the right support point. If the board is just about to tip, the normal force from the left support will be going to zero. So the only torques come from the weight of the plank and the weight of the man.
∑τ = 0 ⇒ τ₁ + τ₂ = 0
Torque come from the weight of the plank = τ₁
Torque come from the weight of the man = τ₂
⇒ τ₁ = + (5 - 1.1)*(225/5)*((5 - 1.1)/2) - (1.1)*(225/5)*((1.1)/2) = 315 N-m (counterclockwise)
⇒ τ₂ = Wman*x = 522 N*x (clockwise)
then
τ₁ + τ₂ = (315 N-m) + (- 522 N*x) = 0
⇒ x = 0.6034 m
A) work = force * distance
mass is not a force, weight is, so we have to find the weight of the block.
Weight = mg
Weight = (220kg)(9.8)
Weight = 2156N
Work = 2156N * 3.10m
work = 6683.6J
b) Since he is holding the weights, it's not moving, therefore, he doesn't do any work
c) The answer is still the same amount of work when he lifted them.
d) The answer is no since when he let go the weight, he doesn't apply any force to the weight.
e) P = work/time
P = 6683.6J / 2.1s
P = 3182.67 watts
Answer:
The distance between the two slits is 1.2mm.
Explanation:
The physicist Thomas Young establishes, through its double slit experiment, a relationship between the interference (constructive or destructive) of a wave, the separation between the slits, the distance between the two slits to the screen and the wavelength.
(1)
Where 
is the distance between two adjacent maxima, L is the distance of the screen from the slits, 
is the wavelength and d is the separation between the slits.
If light pass through two slits a diffraction pattern in a screen will be gotten, at which each bright region corresponds to a crest, a dark region to a trough, as consequence of constructive interference and destructive interference in different points of its propagation to the screen.
Therefore, d can be isolated from equation 1.
(2)
Notice that it is necessary to express L and in units of millimeters.
⇒ 
⇒ 
Hence, the distance between the two slits is 1.2mm.
