Your friend is constructing a balancing display for an art project. She has one rock on the left ( ms=2.25 kgms=2.25 kg ) and th

ree on the right (total mass mp=10.1 kgmp=10.1 kg ). The distance from the fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks is rp=0.360 m.rp=0.360 m. Answer the two questions below, using three significant digits. Part A: What is the value of the torque ( ????pτp ) produced by the pile of rocks? (Enter a positive value.)

Answer:

Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures.

Explanation:

Given details:

The mass of the rock on the left, ms = 2.25 kg

The total mass of the rocks, mp = 10.1 kg

The distance from the fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks, rp = 0.360 m

(a) The torque produced by the pile of rock, T = F*rp = m*g*rp

Torque = 9.8*0.360*10.1 = 35.6328

Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures).

A basketball has a mass of 567 g. Heading straight downward, in the direction, it hits the floor with a speed of 2 m/s and rebou
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

\Delta p=2.27\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}

Explanation:

The momentum change is defined as:

\Delta p=p_f-p_i\\\Delta p=mv_f-mv_i\\\Delta p=m(v_f-v_i)(1)

Taking the downward motion as negative and the upward motion as positive, we have:

v_f=2\frac{m}{s}(2)\\v_i=-2\frac{m}{s}(3)

Replacing (2) and (3) in (1):

\Delta p=567*10^{-3}kg(2\frac{m}{s}-(-2\frac{m}{s}))\\\Delta p=2.27\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}

Arianna is experimenting with different materials to see which one will
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Concrete

Explanation:

The speed at which sound propagates is medium dependent. As one of the forms of mechanical waves, sound requires a material medium for propagation from place to place.

  • Sound travels with the least speed in air because air particles are far apart and they are randomized.
  • Sound travels with the greatest speed in solids. Concrete is the only solid material given in the choice.

The speed of sound increases from air to liquid and to solid.
