Answer:

T = 2010 N

Explanation:

m = mass of the uniform beam = 150 kg

Force of gravity acting on the beam at its center is given as

W = mg

W = 150 x 9.8

W = 1470 N

T = Tension force in the wire

θ = angle made by the wire with the horizontal =  47° deg

L = length of the beam

From the figure,

AC = L

BC = L/2

From the figure, using equilibrium of torque about point C

T (AC) Sin47 = W (BC)

T L Sin47 = W (L/2)

T Sin47 = W/2

T Sin47 = 1470

T = 2010 N

A point charge has q=1.0×10-6
dmitriy555 [2]

Since the 2 points form a triangle with hypothenuse of √5 [ √(1²+2²)],

I guess apply the formula :

v = kq \div r

with r as √5 and q as 1x10^-6

not sure about this answer tho

draw a diagram first to understand better

A 4400 W motor is used to do work. If the motor is used for 200 s, how much work could it do? (Power: P = W/t)
guajiro [1.7K]
So if p=w/t
then 4400=(w)(200)
so you would multiply 4440•200 and get 880,000
