Answer:

20 cm to the right of the center or 20+50 = 70 cm from the left side.

Explanation:

The length of meter stick is 1 m = 100 cm

Balance point on 50 cm

From the center the 20 N weight is 50-20 = 30 cm

Torque is obtained when force is multiplied with the distance

As the force is conserved we have

\dfrac{20}{30}\times 30=20\ cm

The distance will be 20 cm to the right of the center or 20+50 = 70 cm from the left side.

An object is 70 um long and 47.66um wide. how long and wide is the object in km?​
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

length =  7*10^(-8)km

width = 4.666*10^(-8) km

Explanation:

We know that:

1 μm = 1*10^(-6) m

and

1km = 1*10^3 m

or

1m = 1*10^(-3) km

if we replace the meter in the first equation, we get:

1 μm = 1*10^(-6)*1*10^(-3) km

1 μm = 1*10^(-6 - 3)km

1 μm = 1*10^(-9)km

Now with this relationship we can transform our measures:

Length: 70 μm is 70 times 1*10^(-9)km, or:

L = 70*1*10^(-9)km = 7*10^(-8)km

And for width, we have 47.66um, this is 46.66 times 1*10^(-9)km, or:

W = 46.66*1*10^(-9)km = 4.666*10^(-8) km

A ball initially at rest rolls down a hill with an acceleration of 3.3 m/s2. If it accelerates for 7.5 s, how far will it move?
goldfiish [28.3K]

<u>Answer:</u>

  Ball will move 92.8125 meter along the cliff in 7.5 seconds.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

In this case initial velocity = 0 m/s, acceleration = 3.3 m/s^2, we need to calculate displacement when time = 7.5 seconds.

Substituting

  s=0*7.5+\frac{1}{2} *3.3*7.5^2\\ \\ =92.8125 meter

  So ball will move 92.8125 meter along the cliff in 7.5 seconds.
