<span>the heated filament will react with the oxygen in the air but now with the argon, which is a noble gas and hardly ever reacts.</span>

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Tension of 132N

Explanation:

We need to apply Summatory of Force to find the tension in the hand.

We define te tensión in the hand as F_2 and the Tension in fence post as F_1, then

\sum F = 24(9.8)

F_1 + F_2= 24(9.8)

We apply summatory of moments then

F_2*1.25 = F_1*1.6

Where the Force 2 is 1.25m from the center of summatory,

We can note that,

1.6 m - 0.35m=1.25m

We have two equation and two incognites, then replacing (1) in (2)

1.6(235.2 -F_2) = 1.25F_2

376.32 = F2(1.6+1.25)

F_2= \frac{376.32}{2.85}

F_2 =132 N

A student in Denver (altitude = 1 mile = 1609 m above sea level) brings a physics book of mass 1.3 kg to the top of a ten story
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy of a body due to is virtue of rest.

Potential energy is given as mgh

g is a constant and it is 9.81m/s²

And also the mass of the body is given as 1.3kg

Now the height of the body is

He took a book to a storey building of height 26m

He still holds the book 151 cm (1.51m) above the house.

The house is on an altitude of 1609m from the sea level.

Total Ug with out the sea level is

Ug=mgh

Ug=1.3 × 9.81 ×(26+1.51)

Ug=350.84J

Then, the potential energy due to the sea level is given as

Ug=mgh

Where g = 1/6371 m/s²

Therefore

Ug=mgh

Ug=1.3 × 1/6371 ×1609

Ug=0.328J

Total energy = 0.328+350.84

Ug=351.17J

Why doesn’t a machine that increases force break the law of conservation of energy?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

A machine in which work input equals work output. energy can be used to do work, work can be used to transfer energy. The change in the kinetic energy of an object is equal to the net work done on the object.

hope this helps
