"Balanced" means that if there's something pulling one way, then there's also
something else pulling the other way. 

-- If there's a kid sitting on one end of a see-saw, and another one with the
same weight sitting on the other end, then the see-saw is balanced, and
neither end goes up or down.  It's just as if there's nobody sitting on it.

-- If there's a tug-of-war going on, and there are 300 freshmen pulling on one
end of a rope, and another 300 freshmen pulling in the opposite direction on
the other end of the rope, then the hanky hanging from the middle of the rope
doesn't move.  The pulls on the rope are balanced, and it's just as if nobody
is pulling on it at all.

-- If a lady in the supermarket is pushing her shopping cart up the aisle, and her
two little kids are in front of the cart pushing it in the other direction, backwards,
toward her.  If the kids are strong enough, then the forces on the cart can be
balanced. Then the cart doesn't move at all, and it's just as if nobody is pushing
on it at all.

From these examples, you can see a few things:

-- There's no such thing as "a balanced force" or "an unbalanced force".
It's a <em><u>group</u> of forces</em> that is either balanced or unbalanced.

-- The group of forces is balanced if their strengths and directions are
just right so that each force is canceled out by one or more of the others.

-- When the group of forces on an object is balanced, then the effect on the
object is just as if there were no force on it at all.

Because the way it's being set down on . It's like newtons law, what stays at rest stays unless an outside force does something.

Identify and sketch all the external forces acting on the chair. because the chair can be represented as a point particle of mas
SOVA2 [1]

There are two external force acts on the chair.

1. The force due to earth gravity, acts in the downward direction.

2. Reaction force of the gravity, which acts in the Upward direction (Normal Force).

On every object, there is a force acts due to gravity of earth, which pulls the object towards the centre of earth, known as gravity force, always acts in the downward direction. Mathematically it's given as

F=mg

here, m is the mass of the object, and g is the acceleration of gravity.

To balance this gravity force, a counter force acts in the opposite direction, whose magnitude is equal to the force of gravity

Answer:

The correct option is;

The assertion is correct, but reason wrong

Explanation:

The question is with regards to the relationship between work, energy, power, and velocity

The mass of each of the persons running up the staircase = Different

The time it takes each person to run up the stairs = Equal time

Let, 'm₁' and 'm₂' represent the mass of each of the persons that ran up the stairs and m₁ > m₂

Let 't' represent the equal time it takes then to run up the stairs

Let 'h' represent the height of the stairs

The energy, 'E', it takes to run up the stairs is equal to the potential energy, P.E., obtained at the top of the stairs

P.E. = m·g·h

Where;

m = The mass of the person at an elevated height

g = The acceleration due to gravity = Constant

h = The height reached above ground level

Given that the height reached is the same for both of the persons, we have

For m₁, P.E.₁ = m₁·g·h and for m₂, P.E.₂ = m₂·g·h

Therefore, where, m₁ > m₂, we have;

P.E.₁ > P.E.₂

∴ E₁ > E₂

Power, 'P', is the rate at which energy is expended

∴ Power, P = E/t

∴ P₁ = E₁/t  > P₂ = E₂/t

Therefore, the person with the greater mass, 'm₁', uses more power than the person of mass 'm₂', in running up the stairs

Therefore, the assertion is correct

The average velocity, vₐ = (Total distance traveled, d)/(Total time taken, t)

Given that the distance, 'd', covered in running up the stairs by both persons is the same, and the time it takes them to complete the distance, 't', is also the same, we have;

The average velocity of the person with the greater mass m₁ is the same as the average velocity of the person with mass, m₂

Therefore, the reason is wrong

The answer is that the assertion is correct, but reason wrong

The baker needs 9 eggs, 6 cups of flour, 3 cups of sugar, and 3 sticks of butter to make a total of 3 cakes.. The baker only has
almond37 [142]

Answer: Limiting reactant

Explanation:

The limiting reactant is a reactant will get completely consumed up in the reaction. This reactant being in low concentration will lead to the formation of limited amount of product.

In the given situation, since the butter cakes are required to be 3 sticks for making 3 cakes but only 2 cakes are available thus the butter stick is the limiting reactant.

As a transverse wave travels through a rope from left to right, the parts of the rope _______.
kupik [55]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Are moving up and down.

As a transverse wave travels through a rope from left to right, the parts of the rope <u>are moving up and down</u>.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Transverse waves occur when a disturbance causes oscillations perpendicular to the propagation, that is the direction of energy transfer.
  • <em><u>Particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction the transverse wave itself is moving.  For example, if the wave is moving to the right, the particles of the medium are moving up and down.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Therefore, as a transverse wave travels through a rope from left to right, the parts of the rope are moving up and down.</u></em>
