A 1 kg rock is suspended by a massless string from one end of a meter stick at the 0 cm mark. What is the mass m suspended from

the meter stick at the 75 cm mark if the system is balanced?

Answer:

2 kg

Explanation:

Note: For the meter stick to be balanced,

Sum of clock wise moment must be equal to sum of anti clock wise moment

Wd = W'd' ................ Equation 1

Where W = weight of the rock, d = distance of the meter stick from the point of support, W' = weight of the that must be suspended for the meter stick to be balanced, d' = distance of the mass to the point of support.

make W' the subject of the equation

W' = Wd/d'............... Equation 2

Taking our moment about the support,

Given: W = mg =  1 ×9.8 = 9.8 N, d = 50 cm, d' = (75-50) = 25 cm

Substitute into equation 2

W' = 9.8(50)/25

W' = 19.6 N.

But,

m = W'/g

m = 19.6/9.8

m = 2 kg.

3. A bicycle has a momentum of 25.00 kg* m/s and a velocity of 2.5 m/s . What is the bicycle's
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

10 kg

Explanation:

The question is most likely asking for the mass of the bicycle.

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity. Mathematically:

p = m * v

Where p = momentum

m = mass

v = velocity

Hence, mass is:

m = p / v

From the question:

p = 25 kgm/s

v = 2.5 m/s

Mass is:

m = 25 / 2.5 = 10 kg

The mass of the bicycle is 10 kg.

In case the question requires the Kinetic energy of the bicycle, it can be gotten by using the formula

K. E = ½ * p * v

K. E. = ½ * 25 * 2.5 = 31.25 J

If the sum of the external forces on an object is zero, then the sum of the external torques on it
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

If the sum of the external forces on an object is zero, then the sum of the external torques on it  must also be zero.

The net external force and the net external torque acting on the object have to be zero for an object to be in mechanical equilibrium.

Hence, the given statement is true.

A motor running at 2600 rev/min is suddenly switched off and decelerates uniformly to rest after 10 s. Find the angular decelera
Mama L [17]
Angular acceleration = (change in angular speed) / (time for the change)

change in angular speed = (zero - 2,600 RPM)  =  -2,600 RPM

time for the change = 10 sec

Angular acceleration = -2600 RPM / 10 sec = -260 rev / min-sec

(-260 rev/min-sec) x (1 min / 60 sec) = <em>-(4 1/3)  rev / sec²</em>

Since the acceleration is negative, the motor is slowing down.
You might call that a 'deceleration' of (4 1/3) rev/sec² .

The average speed is  1/2(2,600 + 0) = 1,300 rev/min = (21 2/3) rev/sec.

Number of revs = (average speed) x (time) = (21 2/3) x (10sec) = <em>(216 2/3) revs</em>

If a student flicks a stationary 0.1 kg ball with 5N of force for 0.1 seconds. What is its final
Alisiya [41]

5m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball = 0.1kg

Force on the ball = 5N

time taken = 0.1s

Unknown:

final speed of the ball = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law "the net force on a body is the product of its mass and acceleration".

  Force = mass x acceleration      equation 1

Acceleration =

  V is the final velocity

  U is the initial velocity

  T is the time taken

 U = O since it is a stationary body;

      a = \frac{V}{T}

Input "a" into equation 1

  F = m x \frac{V}{T}

 5 = 0.1 x \frac{V}{0.1}

 V = 5m/s
