a concrete slab 20 m long and weighing 400,000 N is supported by one pillar. If a 19,600 N car is parked 8 meters from one end.

where should the pillar be so that the slab is balanced?

let the distance of pillar is "r" from one end of the slab

So here net torque must be balance with respect to pillar to be in balanced state

So here we will have

Mg(r - L/2) = mg(L/2 - 8)

here we know that

mg = 19600 N

Mg = 400,000 N

L = 20 m

from above equation we have

400,000(r - 10) = 19,600 (10 - 8)

r - 10 = 0.098

r = 10.098 m

so pillar is at distance 10.098 m from one end of the slab

What can you use to determine whether the SATA port no which you are connecting the drive will also run at 6.0Gbps?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The answer is "use manual motherboard".

Explanation:

The motherboard is also known as the mainboard, it an electronic circuit board, that can connect with the CPU, RAM, and other networking equipment parts. It is also is known as a chipset, that differ widely in style, context, power source, height and performance (Form Factor).

All the data of the computer is stored memory, which checks into the motherboard, that the SATA port which you are connected to is still going to run at 6.0Gbps or not.

Match the scenario to the type of potential energy represented.
Phantasy [73]

Explanation:

A battery sits in an iPod before the iPod is turned on      Chemical

A man at a carnival lifts a hammer high over his head

before swinging it down onto a pad.                                 Gravitational

A positively charged particle is slowly moved away

from a strong, negatively charged plate                               Electric

The string of a bow and arrow is pulled tight.                      Elastic

Energy is defined as the ability to do work. There are two main forms of energy which are:

  • Potential energy
  • Kinetic energy

Chemical energy energy is a form of potential energy produced through chemical reactions. A car battery is an electrochemical that converts chemical energy into electrical energy for use in the iPod. The battery is made up of electrodes through which electron flows in one direction and current is generated by the potential difference set up

Gravitational energy is a form of potential energy that tends to pull all bodies to the center of the earth. It is an attractive force.

Electrical energy is a form of energy produced through the flow of electric current in a body. As the positive charge moves away from the strong negative plate, an electric current is produced.

Elastic energy is a potential energy stored in elastic bodies that can be stretched and are not plastic.

A thin, rectangular sheet of metal has mass M and sides of length a and b. Find the moment of inertia of this sheet about an axi
slega [8]
We divide the thin rectangular sheet in small parts of height b and length dr. All these sheets are parallel to b. The infinitesimal moment of inertia of one of these small parts is
dI =r^2*dm
where dm =M(b*dr)/(ab)
Now we find the moment of inertia by integrating from -a/2 to a/2
The moment of inertia is
I= \int\limits^{-a/2}_{a/2} {r^2*dm} = M \int\limits^{-a/2}_{a/2} r^2(b*dr)/(ab)=(M/a)(r^3/3) (from (-a/2) toI=(M/3a)(a^3/8 +a^3/8)=(Ma^2)/12 (a/2))

Envision holding the end of a ruler with one hand and deforming it with the other. When you let go, you can see the oscillations
lapo4ka [179]

Answer: To increase the rigidity of the system you could hold the ruler at its midpoint so that the part of the ruler that oscillates is half as long as in the original experiment.

Explanation:

When a rule is displaced from its vertical position, it oscillates back and forth because of the restoring force opposing the displacement. That is, when the rule is on the left there is a force to the right.

By holding a ruler with one hand and deforming it with the other a force is generated in the opposite direction which is known as the restoring force. The restoring force causes the ruler to move back toward its stable equilibrium position, where the net force on it is zero. The momentum gained causes the ruler to move to the right leading to opposite deformation. This moves the ruler again to the left. The whole process is repeated until dissipative forces reduce the motion causing the ruler to come to rest.

The relationship between restoring force and displacement was described by Hooke's law. This states that displacement or deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force applied.

F= -kx, where,

F= restoring force

x= displacement or deformation

k= constant related to the rigidity of the system.

Therefore, the larger the force constant, the greater the restoring force, and the stiffer the system.
