Answer:

r=0.41m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.

\tau=r\times F

Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:

\tau=rFsin\theta

Where \theta is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when sin\theta is equal to one, solving for r:

r=\frac{\tau}{F}\\r=\frac{55\frac{N}{m}}{135N}\\r=0.41m

Marcia pokes fun at her husband Brian because he loves to sing in the shower every morning, but
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

<em>Since I can see no choices, I answered it in my own understanding.</em>

Brian - amplitude and frequency

Marcia - amplitude and longitudinal wave

Explanation:

"Sound" and "sound waves" are essential part of a person's life. They can be used for<u> communicating</u> and <u>detecting some object</u>s.

Brian loves singing in the shower which means that he is using a greater amplitude. Amplitude refers to the<em> intensity of the sound </em>or the amount of energy that a sound carries. When one sings in the shower, the sound cannot travel very far. It bounces immediately back to the person singing thus, making the sound bigger. Brian is also using a <em>different range of </em><em>frequency</em><em> compared to his normal way of talking.</em> The frequency of a normal male voice is normally 85 to 180 Hz. A person singing may have a frequency as high as 1,500 Hz.

Marcia talks loudly on the phone. This means that she is also using a greater amplitude because the intensity of her voice is big. Since she is using the telephone, this means that her voice travels in a longitudinal wave through the telephone. This allows her voice to reach to the person on the other end of the line.

A 15.0 kg fish swimming at 1.10 m/s suddenly gobbles up a 4.50 kg fish that is initially stationary. Ignore any drag effects of
Nana76 [90]

Answer

given.

Mass of big fish = 15 Kg

speed of big fish = 1.10 m/s

mass of the small fish = 4.50 Kg

speed of the fish after eating small fish =?

a) using conservation of momentum

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂) V

15 x 1.10 + 4.50 x 0 = (15 + 4.5)V

16.5 = 19.5 V

V = 0.846 m/s

b) Kinetic energy before collision

KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2

KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 15 \times 1.1^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}m_2\times 0^2

KE₁ = 9.075 J

Kinetic energy after collision

KE_2= \dfrac{1}{2}(15+4.5)\times 0.846^2

KE₂ = 6.98 J

Change in KE = 6.98 - 9.075 = -2.096 J

hence,

mechanical energy was dissipated during this meal = -2.096 J

A 63.3 kg wood board is resting on very smooth ice in the middle of a frozen lake. A 35.7 kg boy stands at one end of the board.
Vlada [557]

The velocity of the board relative to the ice is zero, since both are at rest.

<h3>What is relative velocity?</h3>

Relative velocity is the velocity of an object in relation to another reference object or point.

When two objects are travelling or moving with the same velocity in the same direction, the relative velocity one relative to the other is zero.

Also, when two objects are at rest, the relative velocity one relative to the other is zero.

Therefore, the velocity of the board relative to the ice is zero, since both are at rest.

A solid ball and a hollow ball, each with a mass of 1.00 kg and radius of 0.100 m start from rest and roll down a ramp of length
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The solid ball and hollow ball both will reach the bottom with the same speed.

Explanation:

The speed of the solid and hollow balls is independent of  the mass and the radius. A solid and hollow ball experience same speed on a given incline.

The speed can be calculated as

v = √(10/7)gh

where g is gravitational acceleration and h is the height

sinθ = h/L

h = L*sinθ

h = 3*sin(35)

h = 1.72 m

v = √(10/7)*9.8*1.72

v = 4.91 m/s

Both balls will reach the bottom at the speed of 4.91 m/s.
