(a) The stick is supported by a sharp point at the middle. On the left side, a weight of 100 g is suspended at 40 cm from the mi

ddle point. On the right hand side, a weight of 200 g is suspended. When the stick is balanced, where should the 200 g weight be suspended (how many cm from the middle point)?

Answer:

20cm

Explanation:

Hello!

remember that the condition for a body to be at rest is that the sum of its moments and its forces be zero,

To solve this problem you must draw the free body diagram of the stick (attached image) and sum up moments at point 0 (where the sharp is located), which results in the following equation

(100g)(40cm)=x(200g)

X=\frac{(100)(40)}{(200)} =20cm

<span>The amount of dissolved oxygen in water may decrease because of the increase in organic matter in the water. <span>Aquatic organisms breathe and use oxygen. Large amounts of oxygen are consumed by the decomposition of bacteria (when there are large amounts of dead matter to decompose, there will be a significant number of bacteria). Examples: dead organic matter (algae), wastewater, garden waste, oils and fats, all this results in a decrease in dissolved oxygen in the water.</span></span>

Water from a vertical pipe emerges as a 10-cm-diameter cylinder and falls straight down 7.5 m into a bucket. The water exits the
cupoosta [38]

The diameter of the column of the water as it hits the bucket is 4.04 cm

The equation of continuity occurs in the fluid system and it asserts that the inflow and the outflow of the volume rate at the inlet and at the outlet of the system are equal.

By using the kinematics equation to determine the speed of the water in the bucket and applying the equation of continuity to estimate the diameter of the column, we have the following;

Using the kinematics equation:

\mathbf{v_f ^2 = v_i^2 + 2gh}

\mathbf{v_f ^2 =(2.0)^2 + 2\times 9.8 \times 7.5}

\mathbf{v_f ^2 =151 m/s}

\mathbf{v_f  =\sqrt{151 m/s}}

\mathbf{v_f  =12.29 \ m/s}  

From the equation of continuity:

\mathbf{A_iV_i = A_fV_f}

\mathbf{\pi r^2_iV_i = \pi r^2_fV_f}

\mathbf{ r^2_iV_i =  r^2_fV_f}

\mathbf{ (\dfrac{10}{2})^2\times 2.0 =  r_f^2 \times 12.29}

\mathbf{ 50 = 12.29 \times r_f^2}

\mathbf{ r_f=  \sqrt{\dfrac{50}{12.29} }}

\mathbf{ V_f= 2.02 \ cm }

Since diameter = 2r;

∴

The diameter of the column of the water is:

= 2(2.02) cm

= 4.04 cm

The burner on a stove is 325° f. given that the burner emits electromagnetic radiation as a blackbody, what is the maximum wavel
lesantik [10]
To solve this, we use the Wien's Displacement Law as shown in the attached picture. First, convert the temperature to Kelvin. 

C to F:
C = (F - 32)*5/9
C = (325 - 32)*5/9 = 162.78 °C

C to K:
K = C + 273
K = 162.78 + 273 = 435.78 K

λmax = 2898/435.78 = <em>6</em><em>.65 μm</em>
