Answer:

e. The torque is the same for all cases.

Explanation:

The formula for torque is:

τ = Fr

where,

τ = Torque

F = Force = Weight (in this case) = mg

r = perpendicular distance between force an axis of rotation

Therefore,

τ = mgr

Here,

m = 200 kg

r = 2.5 m

Therefore,

τ = (200 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(2.5 m)

τ = 4900 N.m

Here,

m = 20 kg

r = 25 m

Therefore,

τ = (20 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(25 m)

τ = 4900 N.m

Here,

m = 8 kg

r = 62.5 m

Therefore,

τ = (8 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(62.5 m)

τ = 4900 N.m

Hence, the correct answer will be:

e. The torque is the same for all cases.

Considerando que você comece a caminhar em velocidade constante, inicialmente a 350 m de um ponto referencial escolhido. Você ca

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

a. S(t)=350−1t

Explanation:

To determine the equation of motion you take into account the general form of motion with constant velocity:

$S(t)=S_o+vt$ ( 1 )

So is the initial position from a specific reference frame. In this case is 350 m.

v is the speed of the motion, in this case is 1m/s. However, the motion is forward the zero point of the reference frame, hence, the speed is - 1m/s.

You replace the values of So and v in the equation ( 1 ) and you obtain:

$S(t)=350-(1m/s)t$

Hence, the answer is:

a. S(t)=350−1t

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Para determinar a equação do movimento, você leva em consideração a forma geral do movimento com velocidade constante:

(1)

Assim é a posição inicial de um quadro de referência específico. Neste caso, é de 350 m.

v é a velocidade do movimento, neste caso é de 1m / s. No entanto, o movimento é avançar o ponto zero do quadro de referência, portanto, a velocidade é de - 1m / s.

Você substitui os valores de So ev na equação (1) e obtém:

Portanto, a resposta é:

uma. S (t) = 350-1t, movimento retrógrado

psychology chapter 7, principles of learning; I am the process whereby animals are taught a complicated response by being reward

jeyben [28]

Answer: Burrhus Frederic Skinner's Operant Conditioning.

B.F. Skinner believed that to understand behavior, in the best way, is to look at the root causes or reasons of an action and its outcomes.

Skinner proposes the Law of Effect-Reinforcement. Here,he differentiated the positively reinforced behavior or the strengthened behavior, the negatively reinforced behavior (removal of the unpleasant experience), and weakened behavior because of punishment.

In positive reinforcement, behavior is strengthened through providing an outcome, an effect that an individual finds rewarding. Negative reinforcement also strengthens behavior because the unpleasant experience was removed. Punishment on the other hand is an opposite to reinforcement. Instead of increasing the response, it eliminates it or weakens it.

How to tell if a circuit is connected in.a series.or parallel?

stepladder [879]

Series circuits split the voltage of resistors, so if you see several diodes connected in series or all next to each other, just a complete loop, it will be in series.

Parallel circuits split the current of resistors, so if you see several diodes connected along different branches or pathways, it will be in parallel.

A car is moving at a initial velocity of 20 meters per second accelerates at a rate of 1.5 meters per second squared for 4 secon

Brrunno [24]

Answered using calculus.
Antidifferentiated the acceleration to get velocity. Added variable c as we do not know if there was an extra number there yet.
Knowing that when time is 0, the velocity is 20, we can substitute those numbers into the equation and find that c = 20.
Now we have full velocity equation: v = 1.5t + 20
Now we substitute 4 into t to find out the velocity after 4 seconds. This gives us the final answer of 26m/s
