Explanation:
If you cannot visualize it, just assume that the distance from station A to B is 420km. Each half is 210km.
When the car travels from A to B, it takes 420/30 = 14 hours.
When the car travels from B to the halfway point, it takes 210/30 = 7 hours.
When the car travels from the halfway point to A, it takes 210/70 = 3 hours.
Total time taken = 14 + 7 + 3 = 24 hours.
Total distance = 420km * 2 = 840km.
Hence, the average speed of the car is 840/24 = 35km/h.
Refer to the diagram shown below.
The basket is represented by a weightless rigid beam of length 0.78 m.
The x-coordinate is measured from the left end of the basket.
The mass at x=0 is 2*0.55 = 1.1 kg.
The weight acting at x = 0 is W₁ = 1.1*9.8 = 10.78 N
The mass near the right end is 1.8 kg.
Its weight is W₂ = 1.8*9.8 = 17.64 N
The fulcrum is in the middle of the basket, therefore its location is
x = 0.78/2 = 0.39 m.
For equilibrium, the sum of moments about the fulcrum is zero.
Therefore
(10.78 N)*(0.39 m) - (17.64 N)*(x-0.39 m) = 0
4.2042 - 17.64x + 6.8796 = 0
-17.64x = -11.0838
x = 0.6283 m
Answer: 0.63 m from the left end.
Answer:
mb = 3.75 kg
Explanation:
System of forces in balance
ΣFx =0
ΣFy = 0
Forces acting on the box
T₁ : Tension in string 1 ,at angle of 50° with the horizontal on the left
T₂ = 40 N : Tension in string 2, at angle of 75° with the horizontal on the right.
Wb :Weightt of the box (vertical downward)
x-y T₁ and T₂ components
T₁x= T₁cos50°
T₁y= T₁sin50°
T₂x= 30*cos75° = 7.76 N
T₂y= 30*sin75° = 28.98 N
Calculation of the Wb
ΣFx = 0
T₂x-T₁x = 0
T₂x=T₁x
7.76 = T₁cos50°
T₁ = 7.76 /cos50° = 12.07 N
ΣFy = 0
T₂y+T₁y-Wb = 0
28.98 + 12.07(cos50°) = Wb
Wb = 36.74 N
Calculation of the mb ( mass of the box)
Wb = mb* g
g: acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
mb = Wb/g
mb = 36.74 /9.8
mb = 3.75 kg

Explanation:
The abundance of helium in the universe and the redshift of light from the galaxies.
Answer:
The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the load (the resistance overcome by a machine) to the effort (the force applied). For an ideal (without friction) mechanism, it is also equal to: There is no unit for mechanical advantages since the unit for both input and output forces cancel out.
