Answer:
m1/m2 = 0.51
Explanation:
First to all, let's gather the data. We know that both rods, have the same length. Now, the expression to use here is the following:
V = √F/u
This is the equation that describes the relation between speed of a pulse and a force exerted on it.
the value of "u" is:
u = m/L
Where m is the mass of the rod, and L the length.
Now, for the rod 1:
V1 = √F/u1 (1)
rod 2:
V2 = √F/u2 (2)
Now, let's express V1 in function of V2, because we know that V1 is 1.4 times the speed of rod 2, so, V1 = 1.4V2. Replacing in the equation (1) we have:
1.4V2 = √F/u1 (3)
Replacing (2) in (3):
1.4(√F/u2) = √F/u1 (4)
Now, let's solve the equation 4:
[1.4(√F/u2)]² = F/u1
1.96(F/u2) =F/u1
1.96F = F*u2/u1
1.96 = u2/u1 (5)
Now, replacing the expression of u into (5) we have the following:
1.96 = m2/L / m1/L
1.96 = m2/m1 (6)
But we need m1/m2 so:
1.96m1 = m2
m1/m2 = 1/1.96
m1/m2 = 0.51
1 nanowatt = 1 nanojoule/sec
1 watt = 1 joule/sec
10 watts = 10 joules/sec
100 watts = 100 joules/sec
742.914 watts = 742.914 joules/sec
1,000 watts = 1,000 joules/sec
10,000 watts = 10,000 joules/sec
100,000 watts = 100,000 joules/sec
1 megawatt = 1 megajoule/sec
1 gigawatt = 1 gigajoule/sec
1 petawatt = 1 petajoule/sec
We don't care what frequency the transmission is using,
or who their morning DJ is.
In order to balance the stick on the pivot, the total "moments" must be equal on both sides. A "moment" is (a weight) x (its distance from the center).
for the 5N weight: Moment = (5N) x (3 cm) = 15 N-cm
for the 12N weight: Moment = (12N) x (5 cm) = 60 N-cm
Sum of the moments trying to pull the stick down on that side = 75 N-cm
Whatever we hang on the other side has to provide a moment of 75 N-cm in the other direction. We have a 25N weight. Where should we hang it ?
(25N) x (distance from the pivot) = 75 N-cm
Distance from the pivot = (75 N-cm) / (25 N)
<em>Distance from the pivot = 3 cm </em>
Resistance reduces the current. If there is more resistance, there is less current.
