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

Gate-control theory

<h3>What is Gate-control theory?</h3>

According to the Gate Control Theory of Pain, the spinal cord has a system that allows pain signals to be amplified in the brain before being processed at the spinal cord itself, or attenuated there. 

The mechanism that allows or prevents the passage of pain signals is known as the gate. The gate may be open or it may be closed, one of two possibilities: 

  • When the gate is open, pain signals can enter and are delivered to the brain, where they are perceived as pain.
  • If the gate is closed, pain signals will be prevented from ascending to the brain and won't be felt.

The administration of a non-noxious (soothing or light rubbing) stimulus can help engage the gate control mechanism and alleviate pain in those who are exposed to painful (noxious) stimuli.

C.
Because it’s falling it has acceleration in the y direction. If you have acceleration, you usually also have velocity, and since kinetic energy is KE= Mv^2 you know you have it. It also has potential energy because it has some height to it, and PE= Mgh.
