Anna and Jon sit on a seesaw. Anna has a mass of 60 kg and sits 2 m from the center. Jon has a mass of 70 kg. How far from the c
Ronch [10]

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)

d_{J} = \frac{m_{A} *d_{A}}{m_{J}}

d_{J} = \frac{60 kg *2 m}{70 kg}

dJ = 1.7 m

How much work is done when you push a crate horizontally with 150 N across a 13-m floor
Mila [183]
Work = (force) x (distance)

When a force of 150 N pushes through a distance of 13 meters,
it does

             Work = (150 N) x (13 m) = 1,950 joules .

Two bodies of mass m₁ & m₂ are moving with the same velocity 'v' K.E. will be greater for??
boyakko [2]

Answer:

the one with a higher mass

Explanation:

The body with more mass will have the greater kinetic energy of the two.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of body. It is mathematically expressed as:

           K.E  = \frac{1}{2}  m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

 Since the velocity of the two bodies are the same, and mass is directly proportional to kinetic energy, the body with more mass will have a higher kinetic energy.

 So between mass m1 and mass m2, the one with a greater mass will have a higher kinetic energy

Calculate the distance traveled by a projectile as a function of launch angle. Compare the distances for two projectiles launche
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

R = x_{max} = \frac{v^2\sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{\sin(2\theta_1}{\sin(2\theta_2}

Explanation:

Using kinematics equations:

\Delta x = v_{0x}t\\\Delta y = -\frac{1}{2}gt^2+v_{0y}t

Use \Delta y = 0 due to condition of distance traveled.

Solving second equation for time, there are two solutions. t=0 and

t=\frac{2v_{0y}}{g}

Use the expression in the first equation to have

R = \frac{2v^2 \cos\theta\sin\theta}{g}

Using trigonometric identities, you have the answer of the distance.

By doing the ratio for two different angles, you have the second answer. Due to sine function properties, the distances can be the same to complementary angles. Example, for 20° and 70°, the distance is the same.
