Answer: The smallest effort = 300N
Explanation:
Using one of the condition for the attainment of equilibrium:
Clockwise moment = anticlockwise moments
900 × 1 = 3 × M
Where M = the weight of the strong man
3M = 900
M = 900/3 = 300N
Therefore, 300N is the smallest effort that the strongman can use to lift the goat
Answer:
d. We can calculate it by applying Newton's version of Kepler's third law
Explanation:
The measurements of a Star like the Sun have several problems, the first one is distance, but the most important is the temperature since as we get closer all the instruments will melt. This is why all measurements must be indirect because of the effects that these variables create on nearby bodies.
Kepler's laws are deduced from Newton's law of universal gravitation, in these laws the mass of the Sun affects the orbit of the planets since it creates a force of attraction, if measured the orbit and the time it takes to travel it we can know the centripetal acceleration and with it knows the force, from where we clear the mass of the son.
Let's review the statements of the exercise
.a) False. We don't have good enough models for this calculation
.b) False. The size of the sun is very difficult to measure because it is a mass of gas, in addition the density changes strongly with depth
.c) False. The amount of light that comes out of the sun is not all the light produced and is due to quantum effects where the mass of the sun is not taken into account
.d) True. This method has been used to calculate the mass of the sun and the other planets since the variable distance and time are easily measured from Earth
Correct answer is D
The weight of the box is (mass) x (gravity) = (50 kg) x (9.8m/s²) = 490 newtons.
If the box is sliding at constant speed, and not speeding up or slowing down,
that means that the horizontal forces on it add up to zero.
Since you're pushing on it with 53N in <em><u>that</u></em> direction, friction must be pulling
on it with 53N in the <u><em>other</em></u> direction.
The 53N of friction is (the weight) x (the coefficient of kinetic friction).
53N = (490N) x (coefficient).
Divide each side by 490N : Coefficient = (53N) / (490N) = 0.1082 .
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, that's <em>0.11 </em>. (choice 'd')
Because the Moon has a very small surface area compared to other spacial geo-bodies, it has cooled down much faster than Earth. Any water on the moon would freeze.
