<span>A gymnast with mass m1 = 43 kg is on a balance beam that sits on (but is not attached to) two supports. The beam has a mass m2 = 115 kg and length L = 5 m. Each support is 1/3 of the way from each end. Initially the gymnast stands at the left end of the beam.
1)What is the force the left support exerts on the beam?
2)What is the force the right support exerts on the beam?
3)How much extra mass could the gymnast hold before the beam begins to tip?
Now the gymnast (not holding any additional mass) walks directly above the right support.
4)What is the force the left support exerts on the beam?
5)What is the force the right support exerts on the beam?</span>
Answer:
The Acceleration will increase
Explanation:
Newton's Second Law of motion: It states that the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes places along the direction of the force.
It can be expressed mathematically as,
F ∝ m(v-u)/t
Where (v-u)/t = a
F = kma.
F = force, m = mass of the body, a = acceleration, k = constant of proportionality which tend to unity for a unit force, a unit mass, and a unit acceleration.
Therefore,
F = ma.
From the equation above,
If the net force acting on a body increase, while the mass of the body remains constant, the acceleration will also increase.
Answer: True
Explanation:
Class characteristics can be define as the features which are common to the group of objects. Like the make, model, label of the manufacturing company, design, shape and form. The individual characteristics can be define as the features which develop on the object or any other article with it's wear and use. Like tear, cuts, malformation and deposition of dust, dirt, and mud. The individual characteristic indicate towards the ownership of article or evidence to a particular person.
The class characteristics can only support the possibility of the evidence exactly alike that of the evidence found at the scene of crime. But the individual characteristics can directly link the evidence with the cause of crime. Hence, will be useful to prove that a crime has taken place in the court of law.
