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.

At higher speeds, how would you compensate for the decrease in field of vision
inysia [295]
When you ride a vehicle in a fast speed, then your peripheral vision will reduce that is why there is a need for you to follow the direction of the objects when you are travelling in order for you to compensate to the decrease in the field of vision.

A quantity that has direction as well as size is a scalar.<br><br><br> True or False
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

A quantity that does not depend on the direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude, and a direction. Scalar quantities have only a magnitude. When comparing two vector quantities of the same type, you have to compare both the magnitude and the direction.

Scalar quantities only have magnitude (size). Scalar quantities include distance...

A quantity that is specified by both size and direction is a vector. Displacement includes both size and direction and is an example of a vector. However, distance is a physical quantity that does not include a direction and isn't a vector.

Explanation:

hope this helps...
