Answer:

A rock dropped from the ceiling of a truck's cargo bay, with the truck moving at constant velocity, the rock strikes the floor exactly below the midpoint of the ceiling.

Explanation:

An object moving at a constant velocity, is changing its displacement at an equal time.That is, the object is moving on a straight line at a constant speed.

Also an object with a constant velocity is not accelerating, since acceleration is the change in velocity with respect to time.

Therefore, A rock dropped from the ceiling of a truck's cargo bay, with the truck moving at constant velocity, the rock strikes the floor exactly below the midpoint of the ceiling.

A solid disc with a radius of 5.00 m and a mass of 20.0 kg is initially at rests and lies on the plane of the paper. A smaller s
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

This problem is based on conservation of angular momentum.

moment of inertia of larger  disc I₁ = 1/2 m r²  , m is mass and r is radius of disc . I

I₁ = .5 x 20 x 5²

= 250 kgm²

moment of inertia of smaller  disc I₂ = 1/2 m r²  , m is mass and r is radius of disc . I

I₂ = .5 x 10 x 2.5²

= 31.25 kgm²

3500 rmp = 3500 / 60 rps

n = 58.33 rps

angular velocity of smaller disc ω₂ = 2πn

= 2π x 58.33

= 366.3124 rad /s

applying conservation of angular momentum

I₂ω₂  = ( I₁ +I₂) ω  , ω is the common angular velocity

31.25 x 366.3124 = ( 250 +31.25) ω

ω = 40.7 rad / s .

If x=450 mm, determine the mass of the counterweight s required to balance a 90-kg load, l.
dmitriy555 [2]
<span>The platform scale consists of a combination of third and first class levers so that the load on one lever becomes the effort that moves the next lever.Through this arrangement, a small weight can balance a massive object. If x=450 mm,determine the required mass of the counterweight S required to balance a 90-kg load, l.</span>

Th answer is "electric attraction is a force that can act at a distance."
Tasya [4]
Electric forces is not action-by-distance. Charged particle emits a electric field radially outwards. It corresponds by the inverse-square, meaning it is 1/r^2.

A 5kg wheel rolls off a flat roof of a 50 m tall building at 12m/s.
Olegator [25]

Explanation:

a) Given in the y direction (taking down to be positive):

Δy = 50 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

50 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (10 m/s²) t²

t = 3.2 s

b) Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 12 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 3.2 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (12 m/s) (3.2 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (3.2 s)²

Δx = 38 m
