ryzh [129]

Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

In general, these 3rd class levers are very inefficient. Because the force distance is smaller than the load distance, you need to pull upward with more force that the weight of the load. So whatever the load is, the force is going to be much greater.

The distances are always measured to the pivot unless you are asked something specific otherwise.

Givens

F = ?

weight = 6N

Force Distance = F*d = 0.5 m

Weight Distance =W*d1 = 2 m

Formula

F*Fd = W*Wd

Solution

F*0.5 = 6 * 2            Divide by 0.5

F = 12/0.5

F = 24 N upwards

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 3.37 times a second. A tack is stuck in the tire a
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The tangential speed of the tack is 8.19 m/s.

Explanation:

The wheel rotates 3.37 times a second that means wheel complete 3.37 revolutions in a second. Therefore, the angular speed ω of the wheel is given as follows:

\omega =3.37rev/s \times(\frac{2\pi rad}{1s} )\\\\=21.174rad/s

Use the relation of angular speed with tangential speed to find the tangential speed of the tack.

The tangential speed v of the tack is given by following expression

v = ω r

Here, r is the distance to the tack from axis of rotation.

Substitute 21.174 rad/s for ω, and 0.387 m for r in the above equation to solve for v.

v = 21.174 × 0.387

v = 8.19m/s

Thus, The tangential speed of the tack is 8.19 m/s.

Scrat [10]

Buhrs atomic model differed from ruthofords because it explained that electrons exist in specified energy levels surrounding the nucleus. This means that, Ruthoford believed that electrons can't do very much. However, Buhrs' model showed that electrons are much more powerful than anyone else believes they can be.
