Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

Explanation:

From he question we are told that

    The first mass is   m_1 = 0.42kg

      The second mass is  m_2 = 0.47kg

From the question we can see that at equilibrium the moment about the point where the  string  holding the bar (where m_1 \ and \ m_2 are hanged ) is attached is zero  

   Therefore we can say that

               m_1 * 15cm  = m_2 * xcm

Making x the subject of the formula  

                x = \frac{m_1 * 15}{m_2}

                    = \frac{0.42 * 15}{0.47}

                     x = 13.4 cm

Looking at the diagram we can see that the tension T  on the string holding the bar where m_1  \  and   \ m_2 are hanged  is as a result of the masses (m_1 + m_2)

     Also at equilibrium the moment about the point where the string holding the bar (where (m_1 +m_2)  and  m_3 are hanged ) is attached is  zero

   So basically

          (m_1 + m_2 ) * 20  = m_3 * 30

          (0.42 + 0.47)  * 20 = 30 * m_3

 Making m_3 subject

          m_3 = \frac{(0.42 + 0.47) * 20 }{30 }

                m_3 = 0.59 kg

What best describes desert pavements
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A common theory suggests that desert pavements are formed through gradual removal of sand and other fine particles by the wind and intermittent rains leaving behind the large fragments. The larger rock particles are shaken into place by actions of different agents such as rain, wind, gravity, and animals

The particle is an electron. the field slows down the electron without deflecting it. what is the direction of the electric fiel
sammy [17]

The particle is an electron. The field slows down the electron without deflecting it. The direction of the electric field is <u>right.</u>

In physics, the motion of electrically charged particles gives rise to a field called an electric field. It is measured in force per unit charge.

This field applies force on other charged particles.

Particles bearing opposite charges attract each other while particles having similar charges repel each other in the field.

If a positive charge is placed in the field then the field line moves in an outward direction and for a negative charge, the direction of the lines is inward.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Electron cloud

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. Atom is made up of two parts ; that is the nucleus and the electron cloud. The nucleus contain subatomic particles; protons and neutrons, while the electron cloud contains the electrons.</u></em>
  • <em><u>The electron cloud is the largest part of the atom and is mostly an empty space. Most of an atom is a cloud of electrons surrounding a space called the nucleus with tiny protons and neutrons.</u></em>
