Two equal forces are applied to a door. The first force is applied at the midpoint of the door; the second force is applied at t

he doorknob. Both forces are applied perpendicular to the door. Which force exerts the greater torque?

Answer: The second force applied to the doorknob

Explanation:

The formulae for torque is simple the product of the applied force and the perpendicular distance.

The greater the perpendicular force, the greater the torque assuming a constant value of force.

Applying the force at the doorknob gives for a greater distance between the force and the turning point compared to applying the force at the midpoint of the door ( which is at a shorter distance)

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

30 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity is v_{final}=v_{initial}+at since we know that the initial velocity is 0, and the acceleration is 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} \approx 10 \frac{m}{s^2} then we also know that time is 3 seconds it follows that: v_{final}=v_{initial}+at=0+10\frac{m}{s^2}*3s=30\frac{m}{s}

We run a distance of 1000 m at a speed of 4.3 m/s. Calculate the time elapsed to cover this distance
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

So if we need to cover 1000 meters. And we go at a speed of 4.3 m/s. That means that every 4.3 meters we cover is 1 second. So we divide both amd get

1000/4.3 = 232.56 is approx the answer. Also the meters cancel out because

m/(m/s) = m*s/m, cancels out giving s as a unit.

<h2><u>Therefore the answer is 232.56 seconds</u></h2>

What type of ethic is life-centered and views humans as just one component life on Earth
katrin [286]
The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:

A anthropocentric 

B frontier 

C land

D biocentric


I think the correct answer is option A. It is anthropocentric the type of ethic that is life-centered and views humans as just one component life on Earth. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
