Answer:


F₁ = 4,120.2 N


F₂ = 3,924N


Explanation:



1) Balance of angular momentum around the end where F₁ is applied.


F₂ × 0.5m - F₁ × 0 = mass × g × 1m


⇒ F2 × 0.5 m= 20 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 1 m = 1,962 N×m


F₂ = 196.2 Nm / 0.5m = 3,924 N


2) Balance of forces


F₁ - F₂ = mg


F₁ = F₂ + mg = 3,924N + 20kg (9.81 m/s²) = 4,120.2 N

How does a battery work?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Essentials. A battery is a device that stores chemical energy and converts it to electrical energy. The chemical reactions in a battery involve the flow of electrons from one material (electrode) to another, through an external circuit. The flow of electrons provides an electric current that can be used to do work.

The length of the mercury thread is found to be 4cm and 24cm at ice point and steam point respectively on an ungraduated thermom
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

The difference between ice and steam in Celsius (Centigrade) is 100 deg.

So the difference between and 4 cm and 24 cm of the thread corresponds to 100 deg C.

So 8 cm is 4 cm greater than the ice point

4 cm / 20 cm = 1/5     since the steam point and the ice point are 20 cm apart

Then 1/5 * 100  deg C = 20 deg C   the requested temperature

A student standing on a knoll throws a snowball horizontally 4.5 meters above the level ground toward a smokestack 15 meters awa
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

2.4 m

Explanation:

Consider the motion along the vertical direction

y_{o} = initial position of ball above the ground = 4.5 m

t = time taken by the ball to hit the smokestack = 0.65 s

v_{oy} = initial velocity of the ball along vertical direction

a_{y} = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²

y = position of ball at the time of hitting the smokestack

Using the kinematics equation

y = y_{o} + v_{oy} t + (0.5) a_{y} t^{2}

inserting the above values

y = 4.5 + (0) (0.65) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (0.65)^{2} \\y = 2.4 m
