The weight of the meterstick is:

and this weight is applied at the center of mass of the meterstick, so at x=0.50 m, therefore at a distance

from the pivot.
The torque generated by the weight of the meterstick around the pivot is:

To keep the system in equilibrium, the mass of 0.50 kg must generate an equal torque with opposite direction of rotation, so it must be located at a distance d2 somewhere between x=0 and x=0.40 m. The magnitude of the torque should be the same, 0.20 Nm, and so we have:

from which we find the value of d2:

So, the mass should be put at x=-0.04 m from the pivot, therefore at the x=36 cm mark.
Answer:
(a) 4.0334Ω
(b)parallel
Explanation:
for resistors connected in parallel;

Req =3.03Ω , R1 =12.18Ω



R2=1/0.2479
R2=4.0334Ω
(b)parallel connection is suitable for the desired total resistance. series connection can not be used to achieve a lower resistance as the equation for series connection is.
Req = R1+R2
Answer:
Gravity is one major force that creates tides. In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton explained that ocean tides result from the gravitational attraction of the sun and moon on the oceans of the earth (Sumich, J.L., 1996).

I hope this helps.
A) The power delivered to the lines is

And the voltage at which the lines work is

Since the power delivered is the product between the voltage and the current:

We can find the current flowing in the lines:

b) The voltage change along each line can be found by using Ohm's law:

c) The power wasted as heat along each line is given by:

And since we have 2 lines, the total power wasted as heat in both lines is
