"Balanced" means that if there's something pulling one way, then there's also
something else pulling the other way.
-- If there's a kid sitting on one end of a see-saw, and another one with the
same weight sitting on the other end, then the see-saw is balanced, and
neither end goes up or down. It's just as if there's nobody sitting on it.
-- If there's a tug-of-war going on, and there are 300 freshmen pulling on one
end of a rope, and another 300 freshmen pulling in the opposite direction on
the other end of the rope, then the hanky hanging from the middle of the rope
doesn't move. The pulls on the rope are balanced, and it's just as if nobody
is pulling on it at all.
-- If a lady in the supermarket is pushing her shopping cart up the aisle, and her
two little kids are in front of the cart pushing it in the other direction, backwards,
toward her. If the kids are strong enough, then the forces on the cart can be
balanced. Then the cart doesn't move at all, and it's just as if nobody is pushing
on it at all.
From these examples, you can see a few things:
-- There's no such thing as "a balanced force" or "an unbalanced force".
It's a <em><u>group</u> of forces</em> that is either balanced or unbalanced.
-- The group of forces is balanced if their strengths and directions are
just right so that each force is canceled out by one or more of the others.
-- When the group of forces on an object is balanced, then the effect on the
object is just as if there were no force on it at all.
<h2>
The child swing through the swing's equilibrium position 6 times during the course of 3 periods.</h2>
Explanation:
One period means time taken to complete one revolution.
In case of swings in one period time it travels the same position through two times.
Here we need to find how many times does the child swing through the swing's equilibrium position during the course of 3 period(s) of motion.
For 1 period = 2 times
For 3 periods = 3 x For 1 period
For 3 periods = 3 x 2 times
For 3 periods = 6 times
The child swing through the swing's equilibrium position 6 times during the course of 3 periods.
Yes, the above-given statement is true
<u>Explanation:</u>
- The product of the mass x the velocity will be the same for both. Momentum is the action of a body with a particular mass through space and there is the conservation of momentum.
- Momentum is described as the mass of the object multiplied by its velocity.
- <u>Momentum (p) = Mass (M) * Velocity (v)</u>
- Therefore for two objects with many masses to have a similar momentum, then the lighter one has to be moving quicker than the heavier object.
Answer:
111,000 Pa
Explanation:
P = Patm + ρgh
122,000 Pa = Patm + (921 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²) (1.22 m)
Patm = 111,000 Pa
