<h2>Answer: The Systeme international (International System of Units)</h2>

The International System of Units (SI) is used in almost every country in the world (<em>except Burma, Liberia and the United States</em>).

This system was created in 1960 by the 11th General Conference of Weights and Measures in France and is made up of seven basic units:

-Ampere (electric current)

-Kelvin (temperature)

-Second (time)

-Meter (length)

-Kilogram (mass)

-Candela (luminous intensity)

-Mol (amount of substance) *added to the system in 1971

Plus an unlimited number of derived units from the main ones.

a) 120 s

b) v = 0.052R [m/s]

Explanation:

The period of a revolution in a simple harmonic motion is the time taken for the object in motion to complete one cycle (in this case, the time taken to complete one revolution).

The graph of the problem is missing, find it in attachment.

To find the period of revolution of the book, we have to find the time between two consecutive points of the graph that have exactly the same shape, which correspond to two points in which the book is located at the same position.

The first point we take is t = 0, when the position of the book is x = 0.

Then, the next point with same shape is at t = 120 s, where the book returns at x = 0 m.

Therefore, the period is

T = 120 s - 0 s = 120 s

The tangential speed of the book is given by the ratio between the distance covered during one revolution, which is the perimeter of the wheel, and the time taken, which is the period.

The perimeter of the wheel is:

$L=2\pi R$

where R is the radius of the wheel.

The period of revolution is:

$T=120 s$

Therefore, the tangential speed of the book is:

$v=\frac{L}{T}=\frac{2\pi R}{120}=0.052R$

In what way is a touch screen similar to a CCD? In what way is it different?

kupik [55]

A charge-coupled device (CCD) is a light-sensitive integrated circuit that captures images by converting photons to electrons.

A touch screen is a computer display screen that is also an input device. The screens are sensitive to pressure; a user interacts with the computer by touching pictures or words on the screen.

The similarity is the sensitivity.
The difference is CCD scans or ‘takes images’, whereas touch-screen is where a user interacts with the software.

Hope this helps!

Over an interval of 4.0 s the average rate of change of the concentration of B was measured to be -0.0760 M/s. What is the final

Serhud [2]

Complete question:

Consider the hypothetical reaction 4A + 2B → C + 3D

Over an interval of 4.0 s the average rate of change of the concentration of B was measured to be -0.0760 M/s. What is the final concentration of A at the end of this same interval if its concentration was initially 1.600 M?

Answer:

the final concentration of A is 0.992 M.

Explanation:

Given;

time of reaction, t = 4.0 s

rate of change of the concentration of B = -0.0760 M/s

initial concentration of A = 1.600 M

⇒Determine the rate of change of the concentration of A.

From the given reaction: 4A + 2B → C + 3D

2 moles of B ---------------> 4 moles of A

-0.0760 M/s of B -----------> x

$x = \frac{4(-0.076)}{2} \\\\x = -0.152 \ M/s$

⇒Determine the change in concentration of A after 4s;

ΔA = -0.152 M/s x 4s

ΔA = -0.608 M

⇒ Determine the final concentration of A after 4s

A = A₀ + ΔA

A = 1.6 M + (-0.608 M)

A = 1.6 M - 0.608 M

A = 0.992 M

Therefore, the final concentration of A is 0.992 M.

un columpio de balancin tiene una barra de 6m de longitud y en ella se sientan 2 personas,una de 60kg y otra de 40kg, calcular e

Kitty [74]

Answer:

<em>El punto de apoyo debe colocarse a 3.6 metros de la persona de 40 Kg</em>

<em>La ventaja mecánica es 1.5</em>

Explanation:

<u>Máquinas Simples</u>

Un balancín es un ejemplo de máquina simple, donde se aplica una fuerza física y ésta puede amplificarse o reducirse a voluntad cambiando la configuración física de la máquina.

En nuestro caso, el punto de apoyo o fulcro se coloca entre las dos fuerzas constituyendo una máquina de primer grado.

La situación planteada se muesta en la figura anexa. Debemos averiguar el valor de x para que las dos personas sentadas en el balancín puedan estar en equilibrio.

Para determinar el valor de x, se establece la condición de equilibrio de torques mecánicos. Ya que el balancín se asume en reposo, los torques aplicados de cada lado del mismo deben ser iguales, haciendo que el torque neto sea cero.

El torque es el producto de la fuerza por la distancia:

T = F.d

De cada extremo del balancín, se aplica una fuerza igual al peso de cada persona, es decir, llamando F1 al peso de la persona de 40 Kg y F2 al peso de la persona de 60 Kg:

$F_1 = 40 kg * 9.8 m/s^2=392N\\\\F_2 = 60 kg * 9.8 m/s^2=588 N$
