Why forces are balanced and unbalanced? need help with this the lesson is tommorow
Naya [18.7K]
"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.

Suppose that two objects attract each other with a gravitational force of 50N. If the mass
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

112.5 N

Explanation:

50 = GMm/r^2

Let F be the new force of attraction

F/50 = ( G(3M)(3m)/(2r)^2 ) / (GMm/r^2)

[Elimiating G,M,m,r]

F = 112.5 N

What is the efficiency (w/qh) of an ideal carnot heat engine operating between a hot region at t= 400 k and a cold one at t= 300
Vinvika [58]
The efficiency of an ideal Carnot heat engine can be written as:
\eta = 1-  \frac{T_{cold}}{T_{hot}}
where
T_{cold} is the temperature of the cold region
T_{hot} is the temperature of the hot region

For the engine in our problem, we have T_{cold}=300 K and T_{hot}=400 K, so the efficiency is
\eta= 1 - \frac{300 K}{400 K}=0.25

On the surface of the earth the weight of an object is 200 lb. Determine the height of the
siniylev [52]

Answer:

The height of the  object is 5007.4 miles.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of object = 200 lb

We need to calculate the value of Gmm_{e}

Using formula of gravitational force

F=\dfrac{Gmm_{e}}{r^2}

Put the value into the formula

200=\dfrac{Gmm_{e}}{(3958.756)^2}

200\times(3958.756)^2=Gmm_{e}

Gmm_{e}=3.134\times10^{9}

We need to calculate the height of the  object

Using formula of gravitational force

F=\dfrac{Gmm_{e}}{r^2}

Put the value into the formula

125=\dfrac{200\times(3958.756)^2}{r^2}

r^2=\dfrac{200\times(3958.756)^2}{125}

r^2=25074798.5

r=\sqrt{25074798.5}

r=5007.4\ miles

Hence. The height of the  object is 5007.4 miles.
