Answer:
They are able to balance torques due to gravity.

Explanation:
When two friends of different masses will balance themselves on see saw then at equilibrium position the see saw will remain horizontal
This condition will be torque equilibrium position where the see saw will not rotate
Here we can say

here we know that force is due to weight of two friends
and their positions are different with respect to the lever about which see saw is rotating
since both friends are of different weight so they will balance themselves are different positions as per above equation
Answer:
2.82 s
Explanation:
The ball will be subject to the acceleration of gravity which can be considered constant. Therefore we can use the equation for uniformly accelerated movement:
Y(t) = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2
Y0 is the starting position, 2.3 m in this case.
Vy0 is the starting speed, 13 m/s.
a will be the acceleration of gravity, -9.81 m/s^2, negative because it points down.
Y(t) = 2.3 + 13 * t - 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2
It will reach the ground when Y(t) = 0
0 = 2.3 + 13 * t - 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2
-4.9 * t^2 + 13 * t + 2.3 = 0
Solving this equation electronically gives two results:
t1 = 2.82 s
t2 = -0.17 s
We disregard the negative solution. The ball spends 2.82 seconds in the air.
Democritus was the one who did not have experimental evidence to support his theory of the atom.
Answer: Option 4
<u>Explanation:
</u>
The discovery of atoms were first stated by Democritus but due to the absence of any experimental proof, his statement was not noted as significant at that time.
After this, Dalton made the specific assumptions formulating some postulates for the atomic theory with proof. Then the cathode rays tube experiments performed by Thomson lead to the formation of plum pudding models of atom.
This is followed by Rutherford’s gold foil experiment discovering the presence of nucleus inside the atoms. So, Democritus first stated but due to absence of experimental evidences, his theory of atoms were not supported at that time.
