Explanation:
Given that,
Mass if the rock, m = 1 kg
It is suspended from the tip of a horizontal meter stick at the 0-cm mark so that the meter stick barely balances like a seesaw when its fulcrum is at the 12.5-cm mark.
We need to find the mass of the meter stick. The force acting by the stone is
F = 1 × 9.8 = 9.8 N
Let W be the weight of the meter stick. If the net torque is zero on the stick then the stick does not move and it remains in equilibrium condition. So, taking torque about the pivot.

W = 3.266 N
The mass of the meters stick is :

So, the mass of the meter stick is 0.333 kg.
Answer: Velocity terminal = 0.093m/s
Explanation:
1. We start by evaluating the gap distance between the two cylinders as h = R(sleeve) - R(cylinder)
= (0.0604/2 - 0.06/2)m
= 2×10^-4
Surface are of the cylinder in the drop, which is required in order to evaluate the shearing stress can be expressed as A(cylinder) = π.d.L
= (π×0.06×0.4)m²
= 0.075m²
Since the force of the cylinder's weight is going to balance the shearing force on the walls, we can express the next equation and derive terminal velocity from it.
Shearing stress = u×V.terminal/h = 0.86×V/0.0002
= 4300Vterminal
Therefore, Fw = shearing stress × A
30N = 4300Vterminal × 0.075
V. terminal = 30/4300 m.s
V. terminal = 0.093m/s
Period of months where the weather is the coldest and the days are the shortest.
Explanation:
We have,
Speed of plane a is 900 km/h
Plane b is moving at a rate of 
It is required to find which plane is faster. To find which plane is faster, we need to compare their speeds.
Speed of a plane a is 900 km/h and that of plane b is 50 km/h. So, we can say that plane a is moving faster.
