Let's call m=565~g=0.565~kg the mass of the glider and m_w=7\cdot12~g =84~g=0.084~kg the total mass of the seven washers hanging from the string. 
The net force on the system is given by the weight of the hanging washers:
F_{net} = m_w g
For Newton's second law, this net force is equal to the product between the total mass of the system (which is m+m_w) and the acceleration a:
F_{net}=(m+m_w)a
So, if we equalize the two equations, we get
m_w g = (m+m_w)a
and from this we can find the acceleration:
a= \frac{m_w g}{(m+m_w)} = \frac{0.084~kg \cdot 9.81~m/s^2}{(0.565~kg+0.084~kg)}=1.27~m/s^2

How is matter changed from one state of matter to another? *
Digiron [165]

Explanation:

Matter is changed from one state to another by addition or removal of heat and suitable pressure conditions.

When a solid is heated, it normally melts and changes to liquids which on heating changes to vapor. The randomness of the particles increases from solid to liquid state and to gaseous states.

Also, a gas can be cooled to liquid and on further cooling transformed into a solid matter.

These phase changes are brought about by energy changes in a system. Some form of matter can also sublime by changing form solid to gas and vice versa.

The mass of the uniform cantilever is 1100 kg. Determine the force on the beam at A. Determine the force on the beam at B. Use C
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Force A=-−2,697.75 N

Force B=13, 488.75 N

Explanation:

Taking moments at point A, the sum of clockwise and anticlockwise moments equal to zero.

25 mg-20Fb=0

25*1100g=20Fb

Fb=25*1100g/20=1375g

Taking g as 9.81 then Fb=1375*9.81=13,488.75 N

The sum of upward and downward forces are same hence Fa=1100g-1375g=-275g

-275*9.81=−2,697.75. Therefore, force A pulls downwards

Note that the centre of gravity is taken to be half the whole length hence half of 50 is 25 m because center of gravity is always at the middle
