distance of each pan from the center or fulcrum is given as

r = 23.15 cm

now if dishonest shopkeeper shifted it by 0.633 cm from center

so distance on each side is given as

d_1 = 23.15 - 0.633 = 22.52 cm

d_2 = 23.15 + 0.633 = 23.78 cm

now the weight is balance as

W_1d_1 = W_2d_2

W(22.52) = W_2(23.78)

now we will have

W_2 = 0.95W

now we can find the percentage change as

percentage = \frac{W - W_2}{W} \times 100

percentage = 5%

Two gliders collide on a frictionless air track that is aligned along the x axis. Glider A has an initial velocity of +4.0 m/s a
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

As collision is elastic,thus we can use conservation of momentum equation

mA=0.2 kg

(vB)1=0 m/s.......................as it is on rest before collision

(vA)1=4 m/s

(vA)2=-1 m/s

(vB)2=2 m/s

using equation

(mA*vA+mB*vB)1= (mA*vA+mB*vB)2

Where 1 and 2 represents before and after collision

(0.2*4)+(mB*0)=(0.2*-1)+(mB*2)

0.8=-0.2+(2mB)

mass of object B=mB=0.3 Kg
