Answer:

the mass should be bring closer to the point about which we are finding torque

Explanation:

τ = Σr × F = rmg

where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, and r is the distance

Torque is directly proportional to -

1.mass, m , of object

2. distance, r, of the mass from the point about which we are finding the torque.

So if we increase or decrease them then the torque will also increase or decrease.

So if we increase the mass the torque will increase but since we have to maintain same torque therefore we have to decrease the distance of mass from the point about which we are finding torque.

Therefore the mass should be bring closer to the point about which we are finding torque.

a parallel circuit is sometimes called a because the current splits up among all the resistors in the parallel circuit
Ahat [919]
A parallel circuit is sometimes called a current divider because current splits up among all the resistors in the parallel circuit. In addition, the current through the branches is inversely proportional to the resistance of the branch. If the resistance in each branch is kept constant but the voltage is decreased, the current will decrease.

A ball is dropped from a window and takes two seconds to reach the ground .it starts from rest and reaches a final speed of 20m/
Akimi4 [234]
The ball can't reach the speed of 20 m/s in two seconds, unless you THROW it down from the window with a little bit of initial speed. If you just drop it, then the highest speed it can have after two seconds is 19.6 m/s .

If an object starts from rest and its speed after 2 seconds is 20 m/s, then its acceleration is 20/2 = 10 m/s^2 .

(Gravity on Earth is only 9.8 m/s^2.)

Acceleration = change of velocity divided by time interval = Δv/Δt.
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

a=2.378 m/s^2

Explanation:

a=Δv/Δt------eq(1)

Δv=Vf-Vi=120 km/h-0 km/h=120 km/h

or Δv=33.3 m/sec

or time=t=14s

putting values in eq(1)

a=33.3/14

a=2.378 m/s^2
