Answer:

<h2>The magnitude of force F is 18N</h2>

Explanation:

The magnitude of the force in the set up can be solved for using the principle of moment. According to the principle, the sum of clockwise moment  is equal to the sum of anticlockwise moments.

Moment = Force * perpendicular distance

Clockwise moments;

The force that acts clockwise is the unknown Force F and 4N force. If the  beam rests on a pivot 60 cm from end X and a Force F acts on the beam 80 cm from end X, the perpendicular distance of the force F from the pivot is 80-60 = 20cm and the perpendicular distance of the 4N force from the pivot is 60-50 = 10cm

Moment of force F about the pivot = F * 20

Moment of 4N force about the pivot = 4*10 = 40Nm

Sum of clockwise moment = 40+20F...(1)

Anticlockwise moment;

The  8N will act anticlockwisely about the pivot.

The distance between the 8N force and the pivot is 60-10 = 50cm

Moment of the 8N force = 8*50

=400Nm...(1)

Equating 1 and 2 we have;

40+20F = 400

20F = 400-40

20F = 360

F = 18N

The magnitude of force F is 18N

Suppose you are an engineer building a road across a mountain. From a prudential point of view, it would be easier and cheaper t
Alchen [17]

Compensation may be provided, and a temporary residence provided, to the family so that they may make necessary adjustments to their living arrangements and other work-related matters. Even if it's not the nicest way to go about things, it's the most effective.

<h3>What is compensation due to damages?</h3>

Generally, Money given to a successful plaintiff in civil litigation is known as "compensatory damages." Damage awards are handed out by the civil justice system.

In conclusion, Engineers have a responsibility to find optimal solutions that satisfy the demands of the public in a manner that is both practical and beneficial to the progress of the country as a whole. In this case, forcing the farm family to relocate would be very difficult and upsetting for them, but it would be quite useful for the community as a whole if a road were to be constructed.

Predict using Boyle's law, what will happen to a balloon that an ocean diver takes to a pressure of 202 kPa.
kobusy [5.1K]

The volume of the balloon will halve

Explanation:

Boyle's law states that for an ideal gas kept at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is proportional to its volume. Mathematically,

pV=const.

where

p is the gas pressure

V is the volume

The equation can also be rewritten as

p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2

And if we apply it to the gas inside the balloon in this problem (assuming its temperature is constant), we have:

p_1 = 101 kPa is the initial pressure at sea level (the atmospheric pressure)

V_1 is the initial volume

p_2 = 202 kPa is the final pressure

V_2 is the final volume

Substituting into the equation, we find:

V_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{p_2}=\frac{(101)V_1}{202}=\frac{V_1}{2}

Which means that the volume of the balloon will halve.
