Answer:
dJ = 1.7 m
Explanation:
The Equation of the Balancing the moments in the center of the seesaw is like this:
∑Mo = 0
Mo = F*d
Where:
∑Mo : Algebraic sum of moments in the center(o) of the balance
Mo : moment in the o point ( N*m)
F : Force ( N)
d : distancia of the force to the the o point ( N*m)
Data
mA = 60 kg : mass of the Anna
mJ = 70 kg : mass of theJon
dA = 2 m : Distance from Anna to the center of the seesaw
g: acceleration due to gravity
Calculation of the distance from Jon to the center of the seesaw (dJ)
∑Mo = 0 WA : Ana's weight , WJ : Jon's weight
W = m*g
(WA)(dA) - (WJ) (dJ) = 0
(mA*g)(dA) - (mJ*g)(dJ) = 0
We divide by g the equation:
(mA)(dA) - (mJ)(dJ)= 0
(mA)(dA) = (mJ)(dJ)
dJ = 1.7 m
To determine the displacement, since we are given the potential energy, we use the equation for potential energy. For a spring, it is one-half the product of the spring constant and the square of the displacement. We do as follows:
PE = kx^2/2
5 Nm = 50N/m (x^2)
x = 0.32 m
Therefore, the displacement would be 0.32 m.
Answer:
If there was no air resistance
Explanation:
We know that free fall is a unique motion in which gravity only works on one object. Objects that are said to be free-falling do not experience a significant force of air resistance; They come under the sole effect of gravity. Under such conditions, all objects fall under the same acceleration, regardless of their mass.
The correct answer is
Air resistance
In fact, when a ball is in free fall, there are two forces acting on it:
- its weight (force of gravity), acting downward
- the air resistance, acting upward
The effect of the weight is to accelerate the ball, because its direction is the same as the direction of motion of the ball, while the effect of the air resistance is to slow down the ball, because its direction is opposite to that of the motion.
Yes, an increase in temperature is accompanied by an increase in pressure. Temperature is the measurement of heat present and more heat means more energy. Molecules in hotter temperatures move faster and more often, eventually moving into the gaseous phase. The molecules would fill the container, and the hotter it got the more they would bounce off the walls, pushing outward, increasing the pressure.
I suppose you could measure this with some kind of loosely inflated balloon and subject it to different temperatures and then somehow measure the size/pressure of it.
