Answer:

126.99115 g

Explanation:

50 g at 90 cm

Stick balances at 61.3 cm

x = Distance of the third 0.6 kg mass

Meter stick hanging at 50 cm

Torque about the support point is given by (torque is conserved)

mgl_1=Mgl_2\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{ml_1}{l_2}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{50\times (61.3-90)}{50-61.3}\\\Rightarrow M=126.99115\ g

The mass of the meter stick is 126.99115 g

Answer:

127 g

Explanation:

Let m be the mass of the metre stick.

50 g mass is placed on 90 cm mark is balance at 61.3 cm mark. Take moments about the 61.3 cm mark.

Anticlockwise torque = clock wise torque

m x (61.3 - 50) = 50 x (90 - 61.3)

m x 11.3 = 50 x 28.7

m = 127 g

Thus, the mass of the mere stick is 127 g.

Does energy or matter ever disappear? Explain.
maria [59]

Answer:

The first law of thermodynamics doesn't actually specify that matter can neither be created nor destroyed, but instead that the total amount of energy in a closed system cannot be created nor destroyed (though it can be changed from one form to another).

A boy whirls a stone in a horizontal circle of radius 1.4 m and at height 1.5 m above ground level. The string breaks, and the s
balandron [24]

Answer:233.23 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

radius of circle=1.4 m

Height of stone above ground=1.5 m

Horizontal distance(R)=10 m

It is given at the time of break stone flies horizontally thus stone to cover a height of 1.5 m in time t before reaching ground

1.5=0+\frac{gt^2}{2}

t=0.55 s

Initial horizontal velocity at the time of break is given by u

R=u\times t

10=u\times 0.55

u=18.07 m/s

Therefore magnitude of centripetal acceleration is given by

a_c=\frac{u^2}{r}=\frac{18.07^2}{1.4}=233.23 m/s^2

Problems with solar energy include _____.
german
First choice:  the inability of current technology to capture
large amounts of the Sun's energy

Well, it's true that large amounts of it get away ... our 'efficiency' at capturing it is still rather low.  But the amount of free energy we're able to capture is still huge and significant, so this isn't really a major problem.

Second choice:  the inability of current technology to store
captured solar energy

No.  We're pretty good at building batteries to store small amounts, or raising water to store large amounts.  Storage could be better and cheaper than it is, but we can store huge amounts of captured solar energy right now, so this isn't a major problem either.

Third choice:  inconsistencies in the availability of the resource

I think this is it.  If we come to depend on solar energy, then we're
expectedly out of luck at night, and we may unexpectedly be out
of luck during long periods of overcast skies.

Fourth choice:  lack of demand for solar energy

If there is a lack of demand, it's purely a result of willful manipulation
of the market by those whose interests are hurt by solar energy.
