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

An object is moving north with an initial velocity of 14 m/s accelerates 5m/s for 20 seconds. What is the final velocity of the
olga2289 [7]

Use the kinematic equation: Vf=Vi+at

Then plug;

Vi=14 m/s

a=5 m/s²

t=20 s. Therefore;

Vf=14+(5*20)

Vf=114 m/s.
