No the substance will remain the same substance as before.
<h2>Answer: electrostatic and gravitational force
</h2><h2 />
Mechanical energy remains constant (conserved) if only <u>conservative forces</u> act on the particles.
In this sense, the following forces are conservative:
-Gravitational
-Elastic
-Electrostatics
While the Friction Force and the Magnetic Force are not conservative.
According to this, mechanical energy is conserved in the presence of electrostatic and gravitational forces.
I don't completely understand your drawing, although I can see that you certainly
did put a lot of effort into making it. But calculating the moment is easy, and we
can get along without the drawing.
Each separate weight has a 'moment'.
The moment of each weight is:
(the weight of it) x (its distance from the pivot/fulcrum) .
That's all there is to a 'moment'.
The lever (or the see-saw) is balanced when (the sum of all the moments
on one side) is equal to (the sum of the moments on the other side).
That's why when you're on the see-saw with a little kid, the little kid has to sit
farther away from the pivot than you do. The kid has less weight than you do,
so he needs more distance in order for his moment to be equal to yours.
Answer:
toward the center
Explanation:
Before answering, let's remind the first two Newton Laws:
1) An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object moving at constant velocity tends to continue its motion at constant velocity, unless acted upon a net force
2) An object acted upon a net force F experiences an acceleration a according to the equation
where m is the mass of the object.
In this problem, we have an object travelling at constant speed in a circular path. The fact that the trajectory of the object is circular means that the direction of motion of the object is constantly changing: this means that its velocity is changing, so it has an acceleration. And therefore, a net force is acting on it. The force that keeps the object travelling in the circular path is called centripetal force, and it is directed towards the center of the circle (because it prevents the object from continuing its motion straight away).
So, the correct answer is
toward the center
