Answer:

<h2>40 kg</h2>

Explanation:

Find the diagram relating to the question for proper explanation of the question below.

Using the principle of moment

Sum of clockwise moments = Sum of anticlockwise moments

Moment = Force * perpendicular distance

For anti-clockwise moment:

Since the 30 kg moves in the anticlockwise direction according to the diagram

ACW moment = 30 * 1 = 30 kgm

For clockwise moment

If another child sits 0.75 m away from the pivot point on the opposite side, moment of the child in clockwise direction = M * 0.75 = 0.75M (M is the mass of the unknown child).

Equating both moments we have;

0.75M = 30

M = 30/0.75

M = 40 kg

The second child's mass is 40 kg

A 55 kg person falling with a velocity of 0.6
siniylev [52]

Answer:

What are we supposed to find, if it is kinetic energy then this is the solution.

K.E=1/2mv^2

K.E= kinetic energy

M=mass

V=velocity

K.E =0.5*55*0.6^2

K.E=9.9J

Hi please may someone help me especially on the sketch part.
vaieri [72.5K]

Ignoring the air resistance it will take about 3 seconds for the object to reach the ground.We know that the acceleration due to gravity is 10m/s2.

We also know that the final velocity is 30 m/s while the initial velocity is 0 m/s

we can use the formulae for acceleration to calculate the time taken/

(final - initial velocity)/timetaken=10

(30-0)/timetaken=10

timetaken =30/10=3 seconds
