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 volleyball is hit upward with an initial velocity of 7.5 m/s. calculate the displacement of the volleyball when its final velo
Luden [163]

Answer:

The displacement of the volleyball is 2.62 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the volleyball, u = 7.5 m/s

final velocity of the volleyball, v = 2.2 m/s

displacement of the volleyball, d = ?

Apply the following kinematic equation;

v² = u² - 2gd

2gd = u² - v²

d = \frac{u^{2}-v^{2}  }{2g}\\\\d = \frac{7.5^{2}-2.2^{2}  }{2*9.8}\\\\d = 2.62 \ m

Therefore, the displacement of the volleyball is 2.62 m

Which of the following is an instantaneous speed?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

A: All of the above

Explanation:

The instantaneous speed of an object is simply the current seed of the object at any given time. The SI unit is m/S and it is a vector quantity.

Therefore, according to the given options, they all have SI units that are consistent with distance and time which makes them all an example of instantaneous speed.

Waldo gets stopped by the police, and the police officer tells Waldo that she caught him on radar doing 50 miles per hour in a 4
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

He calculated his average speed.

Explanation:

Waldo calculated an average of his speed in 2 hours rather than his speed whilst driving which means instead of doing 50/1 hour = 50 mph, he did 50/2hours which is how he got 25 mph. Hope this helps!

Which of the following about Dalton's theory of matter is true?
Lemur [1.5K]
D.Atoms can be divided into smaller parts.


Dalton's atomic theory was the first complete attempt to describe allmatter in terms of atoms and their properties. Dalton based his theory on the law of conservation of mass and the law of constant composition. The first part of his theory states that allmatter is made of atoms, which are indivisible.

A seismographic station receives S and P waves from an earthquake, separated in time by 17.8 s. Assume the waves have traveled o
Georgia [21]

Answer:

D = 230.2 Km

Explanation:

let distance between seismograph and focus of quake is D

From time distance formula we  can calculate the time taken by the S wave

T_1 =\frac{D}{4.5}

From time distance formula we  can calculate the time taken by the P wave

T_2 =\frac{D}{6.90}

It is given in equation both waves are seperated from each other by 17.8 sec

so we have

T_1 - T_2 = 17.8sec

Putting both time value to get distance value

\frac{D}{4.5} - \frac{D}{6.90} = 17.8

D = 230.2 Km
