Answer:
the ball didnt hit my face so
Explanation:
Refer to the diagram shown below.
The basket is represented by a weightless rigid beam of length 0.78 m.
The x-coordinate is measured from the left end of the basket.
The mass at x=0 is 2*0.55 = 1.1 kg.
The weight acting at x = 0 is W₁ = 1.1*9.8 = 10.78 N
The mass near the right end is 1.8 kg.
Its weight is W₂ = 1.8*9.8 = 17.64 N
The fulcrum is in the middle of the basket, therefore its location is
x = 0.78/2 = 0.39 m.
For equilibrium, the sum of moments about the fulcrum is zero.
Therefore
(10.78 N)*(0.39 m) - (17.64 N)*(x-0.39 m) = 0
4.2042 - 17.64x + 6.8796 = 0
-17.64x = -11.0838
x = 0.6283 m
Answer: 0.63 m from the left end.
The correct answer to the question is : B) The weight of the water, and C) The height of the water.
EXPLANATION :
Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand potential energy of a body.
The potential energy of a body due to its position from ground is known as gravitational potential energy.
The gravitational potential energy is calculated as -
Potential energy P.E = mgh
Here, m is the mass of the body, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
h stands for the height of the body from the ground.
We know that weight of a body is equal to the product of mass with acceleration due to gravity.
Hence, weight W = mg
Hence, potential energy is written as P.E = weight × height.
Hence, potential energy depends on the weight and height of the water.
