Rzqust [24]
<span>A tri-fold brochure has two parallel folds, splitting the brochure into three sections. Even when printed on low-weight paper, tri-folds can stand up easily, which makes them a great choice for displaying at conventions. You can fold both folds inwards so that the left and right sections of the brochure sit on top of one another, or you can have one fold inwards and the other outwards, to create an accordion effect, which looks very attractive.</span>

A meter stick is balanced at the 50 cm mark. You tie a 20 N weight at the 20 cm mark. Where should a 30 N weight be placed so th
vivado [14]

Answer:

20 cm to the right of the center or 20+50 = 70 cm from the left side.

Explanation:

The length of meter stick is 1 m = 100 cm

Balance point on 50 cm

From the center the 20 N weight is 50-20 = 30 cm

Torque is obtained when force is multiplied with the distance

As the force is conserved we have

\dfrac{20}{30}\times 30=20\ cm

The distance will be 20 cm to the right of the center or 20+50 = 70 cm from the left side.

Compare physical changes and chemical changes
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The difference between a physical reaction and a chemical reaction is composition. In a chemical reaction, there is a change in the composition of the substances in question; in a physical change there is a difference in the appearance, smell, or simple display of a sample of matter without a change in composition. Although we call them physical "reactions," no reaction is actually occurring. In order for a reaction to take place, there must be a change in the elemental composition of the substance in question. Thus, we shall simply refer to physical "reactions" as physical changes from now on.

Explanation:

Physical changes are limited to changes that result in a difference in display without changing the composition. Some common changes (but not limited to) are:

Texture

Color

Temperature

Shape

Change of State (Boiling Point and Melting Point are significant factors in determining this change.)

Physical properties include many other aspects of a substance. The following are (but not limited to) physical properties.

Luster

Malleability

Ability to be drawn into a thin wire

Density

Viscosity

Solubility

Mass

Volume
