In an uniform circular motion, the direction of the net force on the object is radially inward, passing through the center of the circle.
Answer:
As much wood as a woodchuck could chuck, If a woodchuck could chuck wood.
Explanation:
Answer:
When air resistance equals the weight of an object, the object has reached free fall.
Explanation:
- When an object has only force acting on it as gravity then, it experiences free fall.
- During free fall all the forces except gravity is balanced by one another.
- In the question, object's weight is balanced by air resistance so it is in the state of free fall.
- At the null point of free fall, object experiences weightlessness i.e. it feels like object is not attracted by any force.
If the rod is in rotational equilibrium, then the net torques acting on it is zero:
∑ τ = 0
Let's give the system a counterclockwise orientation, so that forces that would cause the rod to rotate counterclockwise act in the positive direction. Compute the magnitudes of each torque:
• at the left end,
τ = + (50 N) (2.0 m) = 100 N•m
• at the right end,
τ = - (200 N) (5.0 m) = - 1000 N•m
• at a point a distance d to the right of the pivot point,
τ = + (300 N) d
Then
∑ τ = 100 N•m - 1000 N•m + (300 N) d = 0
⇒ (300 N) d = 1100 N•m
⇒ d ≈ 3.7 m
Answer: True.
Explanation:
The US constitution has involved details related to the Supreme Court; in fact, the US constitution created this institution. However, the structure does not specify how many judges will sit in the supreme court. Those details were left to the US Congress. In 1807, Congress increased the number of judges to seven; In 1837 the number increased to nine, and in 1863 it rose to 10.
