A 90 kg painter is standing on a horizontal wooden scaffolding of length 10 m, which is supported on each end by a rope. The pai

nter is standing 2 m from the first rope and 8 m from the second rope. What is the tension in the first rope (in Newtons)

8 0

Explanation:

For equilibrium, \sum M = 0.

So,   8 m \times mg - (10 m) T_{1} = 0

             T_{1} = \frac{8 \times mg}{10}

                        = \frac{8 \times 90 \times 9.8}{10}

                        = 705.6 N

Also, for equilibrium \sum F_{y} = 0

              T_{1} + T_{2} - mg = 0

or,         T_{2} = mg - T_{1}

                        = 90 \times 9.8 - 705.6

                        = 176.4 N

Thus, we can conclude that the tension in the first rope is 176.4 N.

Biologists have studied the running ability of the northern quoll, a marsupial indigenous to Australia. In one set of experiment
Drupady [299]

Answer:

u_K=0.862

Explanation:

The force of friction between the quails feet and the ground is:

F=m*a

F_K=m*a

F_K=u_k*m*g

u_K*m*g=m*a_c

u_K*g=a

u_K=\frac{a_c}{g}

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

So the coefficient of static is solve

u_K=\frac{\frac{v^2}{r}}{g}

u_K=\frac{v^2}{r*g}=\frac{(2.6m/s)^2}{0.80m*9.8m/s^2}

u_K=0.862

A current exists whenever electric charges move. If ΔQ is the net charge that passes through a surface during a time period Δt,
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

It represents the change in charge Q from time t = a to t = b

Explanation:

As given in the question the current is defined as the derivative of charge.

                                  I(t) = dQ(t)/dt ..... (i)

But if we take the inegral of the equation (i) for the time interval  from t=a to

t =b we get

                                   Q =∫_a^b▒〖I(t)  〗 dt

which shows the change in charge Q from time t = a to t = b. Form here we can say that, change in charge is defiend as the integral of current for specific interval of time.

Does the depth of a pot affect how water freezes
Iteru [2.4K]
In my opinion it does. The more water the pot holds, the longer you need to wait for it to freeze. Since there is more water, some parts may not be completely frozen. An experiment you can try is to get an ice cube container and a pot. fill both of them and put them in the freezer for the same amount of time. When you take it out, the ice cubes should be frozen leaving the pot with cold water.
