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.

What is the least amount of time required for a given point on this wave to move from y = 0 to y = 12cm?
ale4655 [162]

Time t = ?

<span>When wave is moving from y = 0  to y =12 cm</span>

By using the formula,

y = 15cos [(π/12) t)] = 0,

cos [(π/12) t)] = 0 = cos (π/2), so, 

(π/12)t = π/2,

t = (π/2) (12/π) 

t = 12/2

<span>t = 6 sec</span>

<span>so 6 sec is the least amount of time required</span>
