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 student wishes to work out how much power she uses to lift her body when climbing a
Bess [88]

Answer

i'm not 100% sure but 1764

Explanation:

Work done = gravitational potential energy

Gravitational potential energy = mass(kg) × height(m) × gravitational field strength(N/kg)

We can assume that the student is on earth so the gravitational field strength is 9.8N/kg

So work done = 60 × 3×9.8

=1764

(if you need help calculating power but if you do just divide your answer by 12 and you will get 147)

You've recently read about a chemical laser that generates a 20.0-cm-diameter, 26.0 MW laser beam. One day, after physics class,
aksik [14]

Answer :

(a). The speed of the block is 0.395 m/s.

(b). No

Explanation :

Given that,

Diameter = 20.0 cm

Power = 26.0 MW

Mass = 110 kg

diameter = 20.0 cm

Distance = 100 m

We need to calculate the pressure due to laser

Using formula of pressure

P_{r}=\dfrac{I}{c}

P_{r}=\dfrac{P}{Ac}Put the value into the formula[tex]P_{r}=\dfrac{26.0\times10^{6}}{\pi\times(10\times10^{-2})^2\times3\times10^{8}}

P_{r}=2.75\ N/m^2

We need to calculate the force

Using formula of force

F=P\times A

F=P\times \pi r^2

Put the value into the formula

F=2.75\times\pi (0.01)^2

F=0.086\ N

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of force

F=ma

Put the value into the formula

0.086=110\times a

a=\dfrac{0.086}{110}

a=0.000781\ m/s^2

a=7.81\times10^{-4}\ m/s^2

(a). We need to calculate speed of the block

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2ad

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{2\times7.81\times10^{-4}\times100}

v=0.395\ m/s

(b). No because the velocity is very less.

Hence, (a). The speed of the block is 0.395 m/s.

(b). No
