A uniform cubical crate is 0.770 m on each side and weighs 530 N. It rests on the floor with one edge against a very small, fixe

d obstruction.
At what least height above the floor must a horizontal force of magnitude 320 N be applied to the crate to tip it?

Answer:

h = 0.638 m

Explanation:

given,

side of the crate, a = 0.77 m

Weight of the crate,W = 530 N

Horizontal force of magnitude,F = 320 N

let 'h' be the position of force so, that crate is in equilibrium.

Weight of the crate will pass through center of gravity.

Let O be the position where the crate can tip

for a body to be in equilibrium moment about o be equal to zero.

Taking moment about o

F h - W\dfrac{a}{2} = 0

320\times h = 530\times \dfrac{0.77}{2}

h = \dfrac{204.05}{320}

h = 0.638 m

Hence, For crate to be in equilibrium force should be applied at 0.638 m from bottom.

Answer:

<em>Correct choice: b 4H</em>

Explanation:

<u>Conservation of the mechanical energy</u>

The mechanical energy is the sum of the gravitational potential energy GPE (U) and the kinetic energy KE (K):

E = U + K

The GPE is calculated as:

U = mgh

And the kinetic energy is:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where:

m = mass of the object

g = gravitational acceleration

h = height of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

When the snowball is dropped from a height H, it has zero speed and therefore zero kinetic energy, thus the mechanical energy is:

U_1 = mgH

When the snowball reaches the ground, the height is zero and the GPE is also zero, thus the mechanical energy is:

\displaystyle U_2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Since the energy is conserved, U1=U2

\displaystyle mgH=\frac{1}{2}mv^2    \qquad\qquad [1]

For the speed to be double, we need to drop the snowball from a height H', and:

\displaystyle mgH'=\frac{1}{2}m(2v)^2

Operating:

\displaystyle mgH'=4\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2 \qquad\qquad [2]

Dividing [2] by [1]

\displaystyle \frac{mgH'}{mgH}=\frac{4\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2}{\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle \frac{H'}{H}=4

Thus:

H' = 4H

Correct choice: b 4H

How remove local action and polarization ​
slava [35]

Answer:

Local action is removed by amalgamating zinc rod.

Explanation:

This prevents chemical reaction to occur because impurities in the zinc cannot get into contact with an electrolyte.

6.) What is
Feliz [49]

Answer:

100 V

Explanation:

Hi there!

Ohm's law states that V=IR where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance.

Plug the given information into Ohm's law (R=50, I=A)

V=IR\\V=(2)(50)\\V=100

Therefore, the voltage across this current is 100 V.

I hope this helps!

Please help with science! Describe the magnetic field in the vicinity of a bar magnet.
Katen [24]
The magnetic field is described mathematically as a vector field<span>. This vector field can be plotted directly as a set of many vectors drawn on a grid. Each vector points in the direction that a compass would point and has length dependent on the strength of the magnetic force. </span>
