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.

uysha [10]

Hi there!

Recall the equation for centripetal force;

\boxed{F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}}

m = mass (kg)

v = velocity (m/s)

r = radius (m)

We are not given the mass directly, we are given the object's weight.

W = mg

108 = 10m \\\\m = 10.8 kg

Now, we can plug this value along with the given velocity and radius to solve:

F_c = \frac{10.8(5^2)}{5} = \boxed{54N}

Doss [256]

Given Information:

Diameter of solenoid = 5.0 cm

Magnetic field = B = 2.0 T

Rate of change of magnetic field = 3.0 T/s

Required Information:

Electric field strength inside the solenoid at a point on the axis = ?

Answer:

The electric field strength inside the solenoid at a point on the axis is zero.

Explanation:

From the Faraday's Law

E = -r/2 dB/dt

Where dB/dt is the rate of change of magnetic field and r is zero because the distance from the axis is zero.

Therefore, electric field strength inside the solenoid at a point on the axis is 0.

torisob [31]

Answer:

One way to look at this is to consider the forces acting on any point in a string.

For a very small portion of string F = M a must still hold. As M approaches zero the small portion of string would have to approach infinite acceleration if the net force on that portion of string were not zero.

One generally considers the net force acting on the center of mass of an object not  the individual forces acting on each infinitesimal mass composing

the object.
