The above diagram an illustration shows how things can balance each other using torque mechanism..
thus in order to balance the elephant and the Rabit.. accordingly .. you must balance the torque
2. you have to find the length of the other part of the lever's arm
• the torque on the left side of lever's arm is equal to
mg*perpendicular distance which is equal to
500*10*10 = 50000 NM
on the right side you have to obtain the same value of torque which will be
mg*perpendicular distance from the right side of lever's arm
1*10*x = 50000 NM
which comes to 5000 m
thus the total length will be
5000+10 = 5010 m

Answer:

Potential energy only

Explanation:

Answer:

$3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J$

Explanation:

In order to convert the work function of cesium from electronvolts to Joules, we must use the following conversion factor:

$1 eV = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J$

In our problem, the work function of cesium is

$E=2.1 eV$

so, we can convert it into Joules by using the following proportion:

$1 eV : 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J = 2.1 eV : x\\x=\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J)(2.1 eV)}{1 eV}=3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J$

A lawn roller in the form of a thin-walled, hollow cylinder with mass M is pulled horizontally with a constant horizontal force

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

$a_{cm}=\frac{F}{2M}\\\\F_{fr}=\frac{F}{2}$

Explanation:

Given the mass as M, the rotational inertia of the mower is;

$I_{cm}=MR^2$

-The roller doesn't slip while rolling;

$v_{cm}=wR, a_{cm}=\alpha R$

$\sum F_x=Ma_x, -F+F_{fr}=-Ma_{cm}\\\\a_{cm}=\frac{F-Fr}{M} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ eqtn1\\\\\sum \tau_{cm}=I_{cm}\alpha, F_{fr}(R)}=(MR^2)(\frac{a_{cm}}{R}), ->F_{fr}=Ma_c_m\ \ \ \ \ \ \ eqtn2\\\\a_{cm}=\frac{F-Ma_{cm}}{M}, ->F=2Ma_{cm}\\\\a_{cm}=\frac{F}{2M}\\\\\\\therefore F_{fr}=M(\frac{F}{2M})\\\\F_{fr}=\frac{F}{2}$
