KINDLYY FASTT A uniform metre rule of mass 100 g is pivoted at the 60 cm mark. At what point on the meter rule should a mass of

50 g be suspended for it to balance horizontally?

Answer:

80 cm.

Explanation:

Since the metre rule is 1 m i.e 100 cm it means that the mass of the metre can be obtained at the 50 cm mark.

But the metre is pivoted at the 60 cm.

Please refer to the attached photo for details.

In the attached photo, y is the distance between the mark (that will balance the metre rule when a 50 g mass is hunged) and the pivot.

Thus, we can obtain the value of y as follow:

Anticlock wise moment = Clock wise moment

Anticlock wise moment = 100 × 10

Clock wise moment = y × 50

Anticlock wise moment = Clock wise moment

100 × 10 = y × 50

Divide both side by 50

y = (100 × 10) /50

y = 20 cm

Now, to obtain the mark, B that will balance the metre, we simply add 20 cm to 60 cm ie

B = 60 + 20

B = 80 cm

Two angles are supplementary. The first angle measures 40°. What is the measurement of the second angle?
e-lub [12.9K]

Supplementary angles add up to 180°. 
If one is 40°, then the other is  (180° - 40°)  =  140° .

None of those choices describes a plane. 
Choice 'C' is the only example of a plane.

During a compression at a constant pressure of 290 Pa, the volume of an ideal gas decreases from 0.62 m3 to 0.21 m3. The initial
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a) -41.1 Joule

b) 108.38 Kelvin

Explanation:

Pressure = P = 290 Pa

Initial volume of gas = V₁ = 0.62 m³

Final volume of gas = V₂ = 0.21 m³

Initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 320 K

Heat loss = Q = -160 J

Work done = PΔV

⇒Work done = 290×(0.21-0.62)

⇒Work done = -118.9 J

a) Change in internal energy = Heat - Work

ΔU = -160 -(-118.9)

⇒ΔU = -41.1 J

∴ Change in internal energy is -41.1 J

b) V₁/V₂ = T₁/T₂

⇒T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁

⇒T₂ = 320×0.21/0.62

⇒T₂ = 108.38 K

∴ Final temperature of the gas is 108.38 Kelvin

Find the ratio of the lengths of the two mathematical pendulums, if the ratio of periods is 1.5​
juin [17]

Answer:

The ratio of lengths of the two mathematical pendulums is 9:4.

Explanation:

It is given that,

The ratio of periods of two pendulums is 1.5

Let the lengths be L₁ and L₂.

The time period of a simple pendulum is given by :

T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}

or

T^2=4\pi^2\dfrac{l}{g}\\\\l=\dfrac{T^2g}{4\pi^2}

Where

l is length of the pendulum

l\propto T^2

or

\dfrac{l_1}{l_2}=(\dfrac{T_1}{T_2})^2 ....(1)

ATQ,

\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}=1.5

Put in equation (1)

\dfrac{l_1}{l_2}=(1.5)^2\\\\=\dfrac{9}{4}

So, the ratio of lengths of the two mathematical pendulums is 9:4.
