A uniform plank of length 6.1 m and mass 33 kg rests horizontally on a scaffold, with 1.6 m of the plank hanging over one end of

the scaffold. L l x How far can a painter of mass 60 kg walk on the overhanging part of the plank x before it tips? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in units of m.

Answer:

Explanation:

consider the principle of moment

when a system is in equilibrium, the clockwise moment (torque) about the pivot is equal to the counterclockwise moment ( torque). Since the plank is uniform the weight of the plank act at the middle which = 6.1 m / 2 = 3.05 m

the distance that can support the weight of the man = d

mass of the man = 70

70 × d = 33 × ( 3.05 - 1.6)

d = 47.85 / 60 = 0.798 m, if the man work beyond this point he will fall.

Two waves meet and overlap. The first wave has an amplitude of 4.6 centimeters and the second wave has an amplitude of 2 centime
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The amplitude of resultant wave as the result of  overlap of two waves depends upon the phase difference between the two.  If the waves meet crest to trough , the phase difference is 180 degree or they are in opposite phase . Hence they will destroy each other . The amplitude of resultant wave can be obtained by subtracting the amplitudes of two waves. They will interfere destructively.

Amplitude of resultant gives waves = 4.6 - 2 = 2.6 cm.

Why would we expect protogalactic clouds with relatively high density to form an elliptical galaxy rather than a spiral galaxy?
Svetlanka [38]

The higher density allows the protogalactic clouds to cool faster and form an elliptical galaxy rather than a spiral galaxy.

In physical cosmology, a protogalaxy or protogalactic cloud , which could also be called a "primeval galaxy", is a cloud of gas which is forming into a galaxy. It is believed that the rate of star formation during this period of galactic evolution will determine whether a galaxy is a spiral or elliptical galaxy; a slower star formation tends to produce a spiral galaxy. The smaller clumps of gas in a protogalaxy form into stars.

Composition

Since there had been no previous star formation to create other elements, protogalaxies would have been made up almost entirely of hydrogen and helium. The hydrogen would bond to form H2 molecules, with some exceptions. This would change as star formation began and produced more elements through the process of nuclear fusion.

Mechanics

Once a protogalaxy begins to form, all particles bound by its gravity begin to free fall towards it. The time taken for this free-fall to conclude can be approximated using the free-fall equations. Most galaxies have completed this free-fall stage to become stable elliptical or disk galaxies, the disks taking longer to fully form. The formation of galaxy clusters takes much longer and is still in progress now.

This stage is also where galaxies acquire most of their angular momentum. A protogalaxy acquires this due to gravitational influence from neighbouring dense clumps in the early universe, and the further the gas is away from the centre, the more spin it gets.
