Two upwards forces act: one of 34N which is 3.5m to the left of the axle, the other is 25N and is 2.6m to the right of the axle.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In this case, you want to know if you put an object between these forces, which direction would go.

To know this, we need to calculate the moment of an object, which is defined as the product of a force and it's distance. In other words:

M = F * d   (1)

And, in order to reach equilibrium the force will exert a direction in clockwise or anticlosewise, and these moments, should be even:

anticlockwise moment = clockwise moment.

The clockwise would be the forces to the right, and anticlock would the only force to the left of the axle.

Clockwise moment = (10 * 0.8) + (25 * 2.6) = 73 Ns

Anticlockwise moment = 34 * 3.5 = 119 Ns.

As we can see, the moment in the anticlockwise is higher than the actual clockwise moment, therefore, we can assume that the object will move anticlockwise, or simply move to the left.

Hope this helps

A 16.0 kg child on roller skates, initially at rest, rolls 2.0 m down an incline at an angle of 20.0° with the horizontal. If th
enyata [817]

The kinetic energy of the child at the bottom of the incline is 106.62 J.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Mass of the child, m = 16 kg</em>
  • <em>Length of the incline, L = 2 m</em>
  • <em>Angle of inclination, θ = 20⁰</em>

The vertical height of fall of the child from the top of the incline is calculated as;

sin(20) = \frac{h}{2} \\\\h = 2 \times sin(20)\\\\h = 0.68 \ m

The gravitational potential energy of the child at the top of the incline is calculated as;

P.E = mgh\\\\P.E = 16 \times 9.8 \times 0.68\\\\P.E = 106.62 \ J

Thus, based on the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, the kinetic energy of the child at the bottom of the incline is 106.62 J since no energy is lost to friction.

A ball is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 27.9 m/s from a height of 2.0 m. How long does it take to reach its highest p
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

2.84403 seconds

2.91483 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-27.9}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=2.84403\ s

It takes 2.84403 seconds to reach the highest point

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-27.9^2}{2\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow s=39.67431 m

The ball will travel 39.67431+2 = 41.67431 m while going down to the ground

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 41.71479=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{41.67431\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=2.91483\ s

The ball takes 2.91483 seconds to hit the ground after it reaches its highest point.

A dog is 60m away while moving at constant velocity of 10m/s towards you. Where is the dog after 4 seconds?
evablogger [386]
20m away

the dog was 60m away from. you subtract 40m since it is 10m/s x 4 seconds

When light passes through an object unchanged, scientists call that process _____.
Nataly [62]

<u>Answer</u>:

When light passes through an object unchanged, scientists call that process Transmission.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Transmission is the process where all the light that is passed through the material moves via the material without being absorbed. The Transmission depends on the affected radiation.The Transmittance of the medium is defined as the ratio between transmitted radiant power and incident radiant power. The light that is passed through the medium and not reflected will be either scattered or reflected. The light can be transmitted only through transparent or translucent material. Opaque object does not allows transmission of light.
