Billy Bob and Bob Bob are standing on a plank that is 9.0 m long and has mass 100 kg, that has supports at the 2 m and 5 m marks

. Billy Bob has mass 50 kg and is standing on the far left side, while Bob Bob has mass 90 kg and is walking toward the far right side. Will he make it all the way to the end without tipping the plank?

Answer:

No he will not make it all the way

Explanation:

In the attached figure we can see the plank will turn only of the turning moment will be greater than the restoring moment.

balancing moment is created by weight of the plank which acts at the center of the plank thus we have

taking moments about the support A we have

Balancing moment = M_{balancing}=100\times 2.5\times 9.81=2452.5Nm

The disturbing moment created by bob equals

M_{disturbing 1}=50\times 2\times 9.81=981Nm

The maximum disturbing moment created by bob occurs when he is at the far left side equaling

M_{disturbing 2}=90\times 2\times 9.81=1765.8Nm

Thus the maximum disturbing moment is sum of the above 2 moments

M_{max}=1765.8+981=2746.8Nm which is highly greater than the stabling  moment thus he will not make it.

What is one way that continental rifts are similar to mid-ocean ridges and what is one that they are different?
adell [148]

Explanation:

Continental rifts and mid-ocean ridges are both features of a divergent plate margin.

In both cases plates are moving away from one another. Therefore they are creating new land masses.

  • A continental drift like the east African rift valley is where a continent begins to pull apart or diverges.
  • A mid-ocean ridge is divergent margin in the ocean.

They are different in that, continental rift occurs within the continental plate that are on land.

But:

 Mid-ocean ridges are in the oceanic crust in the ocean . They form the largest physiographic structure on the earth surface called the mid-ocean ridge.

What is the energy level of hydrogen?
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The energies corresponding to each of the allowed orbitals are called energy levels.

Explanation:

A scientist known as Niels Bohr put forward that electrons in an atom covers some permitted orbitals with a specific energy. In other words, the energy of an electron in an atom is not continuous, but 'quantized.' The energies corresponding to each of the allowed orbitals are called energy levels.

E = -\frac{E_0}{n^2} \\where \\E_0 = 13.6 eV (1 eV = 1.602\times 10^{-19}Joules)\\and\ n = 1,2,3...

You create a ramp using two text books and a 0.50m board. Using a timer you determine that a cart can roll down the ramp in 0.55
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The velocity of the cart at the bottom of the ramp is 1.81m/s, and the acceleration would be 3.30m/s^2.

Explanation:

Assuming the initial velocity to be zero, we can obtain the velocity at the bottom of the ramp using the kinematics equations:

v=v_0+at\\\\v^2=v_0^2+2ad

Dividing the second equation by the first one, we obtain:

v=\frac{v_0^2+2ad}{v_0+at}

And, since v_0=0, then:

v=\frac{2ad}{at}\\\\v=\frac{2d}{t}\\\\v=\frac{2(0.50m)}{0.55s}\\\\v=1.81m/s

It means that the velocity at the bottom of the ramp is 1.81m/s.

We could use this data, plus any of the two initial equations, to determine the acceleration:

v=v_0+at\\\\\implies a=\frac{v}{t}\\\\a=\frac{1.81m/s}{0.55s}\\\\a=3.30m/s^2

So the acceleration is 3.30m/s^2.
