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.

A book falls of the table and hits the floor. Is work done? Why?​
morpeh [17]

<u>Yes, work is done when a book falls of the table.</u>

This is because:

When the book falls, it's potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.   As it reaches the floor down, this kinetic energy is converted to heat energy and sound energy due to the impact.

When a force is imposed on an object to cause displacement of that object, work is done on that object. For a force to do work on an object, there should be a displacement and this force should cause the displacement. So here, since the book falls from the table and causes the displacement of the book from the table to the floor. It is said that work is done.

Work can be given by the formula:

W = F • d

where F is the force and d is the displacement.

B

Explanation:

F = ma , a = F/m

a1 = F/10 and a2 = F/4

Since Force is constant, a2 will we greater than a1

Answer:

Electric current in amperes = 1.1808 A

Explanation:

Given:

Intercept protons rate = 1800 protons per second

Area = 41 × 10⁷ km²

Find:

Electric current in amperes

Computation:

Current density = Intercept protons rate × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹

Current density = 1800 × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹

Current density = 2.88 × 10⁻¹⁶

1 km² = 10⁶m²

So,

Electric current in amperes =  2.88 × 10⁻¹⁶ × 41 × 10⁷ × 10⁶

Electric current in amperes = 1.1808 A
