. B. If the sum of the external torques on an object is zero, then the sum of the external forces on it must also be zero. C. If the sum of the external forces on an object is zero, then the sum of the external torques on it must also be zero. D. If an object remains at rest, then the sum of both the external torques and the external forces on the object must be zero. E.

Answer:

A. If the sum of the external forces on an object is zero, then the object must be in equilibrium

Explanation:

Equilibrium, in physics, the condition of a system when neither its state of motion nor its internal energy state tends to change with time.

For a single particle, equilibrium arises if the vector sum of all forces acting upon the particle is zero.

the object is at equilibrium, then the net force acting upon the object should be 0 Newton. Thus, if all the forces are added together as vectors, then the resultant force (the vector sum) should be 0 Newton.

There are three types of equilibrium: stable, unstable, and neutral

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

θ = sin⁻¹\sqrt{2gd}

Explanation:

From one of the equations of motion, v² = u² + 2as.......... equation 1

Since the object thrown was moving against gravity, then the acceleration, a would change to -g and the initial velocity u would change to V₀ sin θ because the object is travelling at angle of θ to the horizontal. By inputting all these parameter into equation 1, we would arrive at:

v² = (u sin θ)² - 2gd

(u sin θ)² = 2gd

d = (u sin θ)²/2g

sin² θ = 2gd

sin θ = \sqrt{2gd}

θ = sin⁻¹ \sqrt{2gd}

Parallel rays of monochromatic light with wavelength 571nm illuminate two identical slits and produce an interference pattern on
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength,\lambda=571 nm=571\times 10^{-9} m

1 nm=10^{-9} m

R=75 cm=\frac{75}{100}=0.75 m

1 m=100 cm

d=0.640 mm=0.64\times 10^{-3} m

1 mm=10^{-3} m

a=0.434 mm=0.434\times 10^{-3} m

y=0.830 mm=0.830\times 10^{-3} m

I_0=5.00\times 10^{-4}W/m^2

tan\theta=\frac{y}{R}

\theta=\frac{0.830\times 10^{-3}}{0.75\times 10^{-2}}

\theta=1.1\times 10^{-3}rad

tan\theta\approx \theta

Because \theta is small.

\phi=\frac{2\pi dsin\theta}{\lambda}

\sin\theta\approx \theta,

Therefore

\phi=\frac{2\times\pi\times 0.64\times 10^{-3}\times 1.1\times 10^{-3}}{571\times 10^{-9}}

\phi=7.74 rad

\beta=\frac{2\pi a\theta}{\lambda}

\beta=5.3 rad

I=I_0cos^2(\frac{\phi}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{\beta}{2}}{\frac{\beta}{2}})^2

I=5\times 10^{-4}cos^2(\frac{7.74}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{5.3}{2}}{\frac{5.3}{2}})^2

I=8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2

Problem 1 Observer A, who is at rest in the laboratory, is studying a particle that is moving through the laboratory at a speed
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

markers are 29.76 m far apart in the laboratory

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

speed of particle = 0.624c

lifetime = 159 ns = 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

we know that; c is speed of light which is equal to 3 × 10⁸ m/s

we know that

distance = vt

or s = ut

so we substitute

distance = 0.624c × 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

distance = 0.624(3 × 10⁸ m/s) × 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

distance = 1.872 × 10⁸ m/s × 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

distance =  29.76 m

Therefore, markers are 29.76 m far apart in the laboratory
