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)

The color of light emitted by a hot, solid object depends on ______.
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The correct option is (A).

Explanation:

When the temperature of the hot solid object increases then the radiation which emits from it gets shifted to smaller wavelength or higher frequencies. The hot appears red color.

The total energy emitted of a hot solid object is directly proportional to the fourth power of the temperature of the black body.

For example, when we switch on the light bulb, initially the radiation of the bulb appears dimmer. Then, it will become brighter. Then, it will turn yellow and then it becomes even white.

The color of the light emitted by a hot solid object depends on the temperature of the object.

Therefore, the correct option is (A).

A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–dir
IrinaVladis [17]
The ball has an initial speed of 10m/s. This is because it is moving with the balloon. Now the balloonist throws the ball 4m/s with respect to himself, so it means that he gives the ball a extra push of 4m/s, so the total speed is 14m/s. Since it takes 30 seconds to reach the ground, the distance travelled is 14*30=420m.
