A meterstick is supported at each side by a spring scale. A heavy mass is then hung on the meterstick so that the spring scale o

n the left hand side reads four times the value of the spring scale on the right hand side. If the mass of the meterstick is negligible compared to the hanging mass, how far from the right hand side is the large mass hanging. (A)25 cm (B) 50 cm (C)67 cm (D)75 cm (E) 80 cm in

Answer:

80 cm

Explanation:

Suppose the large mass is at point A which is at length 'x' meter  from right, Since it is on meter stick so the length on left will be (1-x) meter .

Since the system is in equilibrium position

clock wise torque around point A= anti clock wise torque around point A

force on left side × distance from point A on left side = force on right side × distance from point A on right side

Since left side is 4 times more reading - it means four times force of tension is acting there as compared to right side !

Let force be F

then,

4F × (1-x)=F × x

==> 4(1-x)=x

==> 4-4x=x

==> 4 =5x

==> x= 4/5=0.8 meter = 0.8 × 100 cm = 80 cm

The images output from your new color laser printer seem to be a little too blue. What can you do to fix this?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The images output from your new color laser printer seem to be a little too blue. to fix this problem we need to calibrate the printer.

Explanation:

This can be done by opening the toolbox, clicking in the device setting folder their you get print quality page click on it. Under the print quality option click on the calibrate next to calibrate now. Then click OK unless when the 'your request has been sent to the device' appears on the screen. When the calibration ends again try printing. calibrating is useful for managing the proper alignment of the inkjet cartridge nozzle to the paper and each other, without proper calibration the print quality deteriorates.

Answer:
They are both wrong!

Liquid oxygen really is a pale blue color.
I’ve seen it.

And they cant say that liquid and solid oxygen is blue which makes the sky blue because they’re not and it doesn’t make up for the color of the sky.

The sky is actually blue because It reflects more light than It can absorb
aka Rayleigh Scattering.
