Assuming Earth's gravity, the formula for the flight of the particle is:
<span>s(t) = -16t^2 + vt + s = -16t^2 + 144t + 160. </span>
<span>This has a maximum when t = -b/(2a) = -144/[2(-16)] = -144/(-32) = 9/2. </span>
<span>Therefore, the maximum height is s(9/2) = -16(9/2)^2 + 144(9/2) + 160 = 484 feet. </span>
Answer:
Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures.
Explanation:
Given details:
The mass of the rock on the left, ms = 2.25 kg
The total mass of the rocks, mp = 10.1 kg
The distance from the fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks, rp = 0.360 m
(a) The torque produced by the pile of rock, T = F*rp = m*g*rp
Torque = 9.8*0.360*10.1 = 35.6328
Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures).
The answer is 5. To find the advantage you just divide 20 by 4.
