To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to equilibrium, for this specific case, through the sum of torques.

If the distance in which the 600lb are applied is 6in, we will have to add the unknown Force sum, at a distance of 27in - 6in will be equivalent to that required to move the object. So,



So, Force that must be applied at the long end in order to lift a 600lb object to the short end is 171.42lb
Explanation:
Lasers produce a narrow beam of light in which all of the light waves have very similar wavelengths. The laser's light waves travel together with their peaks all lined up, or in phase. This is why laser beams are very narrow, very bright, and can be focused into a very tiny spot.
Answer:
C. 
Explanation:
Let initial charges on both spheres be,

When the sphere C is touched by A, the final charges on both will be,
#Now, when C is touched by B, the final charges on both of them will be:

Now the force between A and B is calculated as:

Hence the electrostatic force becomes 3F/8
The electric field produced by a large flat plate with uniform charge density on its surface can be found by using Gauss law, and it is equal to

where

is the charge density

is the vacuum permittivity
We see that the intensity of the electric field does not depend on the distance from the plate. Therefore, the strenght of the electric field at 4 cm from the plate is equal to the strength of the electric field at 2 cm from the plate:
Answer:
Greater than
Explanation:
The Wavelength will be higher than what will be heard without any motion on the boat due to the Doppler Effect, which is the change in the frequency of a sound wave whenever there's a relative motion between the source of the wave and observer. The amount of shift in frequency depends on the speed of the source towards the observer; the higher the velocity of the source, the higher the shift.
