Answer:

1.33 m

Explanation:

Tom weighs 600 N and is 2 meters from the pivot. So his moment is:

τ = Fr

τ = (600 N) (2 m)

τ = 1200 Nm

To balance the see-saw, Jeremy must create an equal and opposite moment.

τ = Fr

1200 Nm = (900 N) r

r = 1.33 m

So Jeremy must sit 1.33 m from the pivot on the other side.

15. If an 800.-kg sports car slows to 13.0 m/s to check out an accident scene and the

goldfiish [28.3K]

The final combined velocity after the collision is 20.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the two car and of the truck must be conserved before and after the collision.

This means that we can write the following equation:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v$

where:

$m_1 = 800 kg$ is the mass of the sport car

$u_1 = 13.0 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the car (taking its direction as positive direction)

$m_2 = 1200 kg$ is the mass of the truck

$u_2 = 25.0 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the truck

$v$ is the final combined velocity of the car and the truck, after the collision

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find the velocity after the collision:

$v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(800)(13)+(1200)(25)}{800+1200}=20.2 m/s$

And the positive sign indicates their final direction is the same as the initial direction of the two vehicles.

A 13.5 μF capacitor is connected to a power supply that keeps a constant potential difference of 24.0 V across the plates. A pie

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Capacitance of the capacitor = 13.5μF

Voltage across plate is 24V

Dielectric constant k=3.55.

a. Energy in capacitor is given by

E=1/2CV^2

We want to calculate energy without the dielectric substance

Given that C=13.5 μF and V=24V

The capacitance give is with dielectric so we need to remove it

C=kCo

Co=C/k

Then the Co=13.5μF/3.55

Co=3.803μF

Then

E=(1/2)×3.803×10^-6×24^2

E=1.1×10^-3J

E=1.1mJ

b. Energy in capacitor is given by

E=1/2CV^2

The capacitance given is with a dielectric, so we are going to apply it direct.

Given that C=13.5 μF and V=24V

Then

E=(1/2)×13.5×10^-6×24^2

E=3.89×10^-3J

E=3.9mJ

c. The energy without dielectric is 1.1mJ and the energy with dielectric is 3.9mJ

The energy increase when the dielectric material is added

d. Dielectrics in capacitors serve three purposes: to keep the conducting plates from coming in contact, allowing for smaller plate separations and therefore higher capacitances;

Therefore, Since dielectric allow higher capacitance, and energy of a capacitor is directly proportional to the capacitance, then the higher the capacitance the higher the energy.
