g A rod is 2.0 m long and lies along the x-axis, with one end at the origin. A force of 25 N is applied at the point x = 1.2 m,

and is directed 30° above the x-axis. What is the torque on the rod?

Answer:

τ = 15N.m

Explanation:

Torque on the rod is given by:

\tau=F*sin(30\°)*d

\tau=25*0.5*1.2

\tau=15N.m

If you were told that gravity contributes as well, and you were given the mass of the rod, you would have to subtract the torque of the weight to this value.

Consider a parachutist that has reached terminal velocity. which of the following is true? A.) The acceleration of the parachuti
trasher [3.6K]
The correct answer is:
<span>B.) At terminal velocity there is no net force 

In fact, when the parachutist reaches the terminal velocity, his velocity does not change any more. It means that the acceleration acting on the parachutist is zero, and for Newton's second law, this means the net force acting on him is zero:
</span>\sum F = ma = 0
<span>because the acceleration is zero: a=0. 
This also means that the two relevant forces acting on the parachutist (gravity, downward, and air resistance, upward) are balanced to produce a net force equal to zero.</span>

Does the depth of a pot affect how water freezes
Iteru [2.4K]
In my opinion it does. The more water the pot holds, the longer you need to wait for it to freeze. Since there is more water, some parts may not be completely frozen. An experiment you can try is to get an ice cube container and a pot. fill both of them and put them in the freezer for the same amount of time. When you take it out, the ice cubes should be frozen leaving the pot with cold water.

The current in a hair dryer measures 15 amps. The resistance of the hair dryer is 14 ohms. What is the voltage?
ZanzabumX [31]
We have that there is a formula connecting these three. V=I*R where V is voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. Substituting, we get that V=210 Volta, which is the unit of measurement for voltage. You can think of the relationship in the following way : The energy of the field is equal to the flow of the field times the resistance that it meets.

What's the minimum Out PUT WORK<br> required to raise 14,0m3 of water 26.0m?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

3.57 MJ

Explanation:

ASSUMING it's fresh water with density of 1000 kg/m³

W = ΔPE = mgΔh = 14.0(1000)(9.81)(26.0) = 3,570,840 J

Salt water would require more.
