Torque = Force * Distance

Force = Weight = m1*g = 93*9.81 = 912.33 N
Distance from the  pivot to person 1, d1 = 0.8 m

Therefore,

Torque = 912.33*0.8 = 729.864 N.m

To form a hydrogen atom, a proton is fixed at a point and an electron is brought from far away to a distance of 0.529 ✕ 10−10 m,
Elodia [21]
1) First of all, let's calculate the potential difference between the initial point (infinite) and the final point (d=0.529x10-10 m) of the electron.
This is given by:
\Delta V =- \int\limits^{d}_{\infty} {E} \, dr
Where E is the electric field generated by the proton, which is
E=k_e  \frac{q}{r^2} 
where k_e=8.99\cdot10^9~Nm^2C^{-2} is the Coulomb constant and q=1.6\cdot10^{-19}~C is the proton charge.
Replacing the electric field formula inside the integral, we obtain
\Delta V =- \int\limits^{d}_{\infty} {k_e  \frac{q}{r^2} } \, dr = k_e  \frac{q}{d}= 27~V

2) Then, we can calculate the work done by the electric field to move the electron (charge q_e=-1.6\cdot10^{-19}C) through this \Delta V. The work is given by
W=-q_e \Delta V = - (-1.6\cdot10^{-19}C) (27V)=4.35\cdot10^{-18}~J

The impulse given to a ball with mass of 2 kg is 16 N*s. If the ball starts from rest, what is its final velocity?
Alik [6]
The impulse is equal to the variation of momentum of the object:
I=\Delta p = m \Delta v
where m is the mass object and \Delta v = v_f - v_i is the variation of velocity of the object.

The ball starts from rest so its initial velocity is zero: v_i=0. So we can rewrite the formula as
I=m v_f
or 
v_f =  \frac{I}{m}

and since we know the impulse given to the ball (I=16 Ns) and its mass (m=2 kg), we can find the final velocity of the ball:
v_f =  \frac{16 Ns}{2 kg}=  8 m/s

jok3333 [9.3K]

a.) K 2=K 1 +GmM( r 21− r 11)=2.2×10 7J

b.) ​K 2 +GmM( r 11− r 21)=6.9×10 7 J

Applying Law of  Energy conservation :

K 1+U 1

=K 2+U 2

⇒K 1− r 1GmM

=K 2− r 2 GmM

where M=5.0×10 23kg,r1

=> R=3.0×10 6m and m=10kg

(a) If K 1​

=5.0×10 7J and r 2

=4.0×10 6 m, then the above equation leads to

K 2=K 1 +GmM (r 21− r 11)=2.2×10 7J

(b) In this case, we require K 2

=0 and r2

=8.0×10 6m, and solve for K 1:K 1

​=K 2 +GmM (r 11− r 21)=6.9×10 7 J
