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

How many electrons make up a charge of - 30.0 μc?
Ymorist [56]

Each electron has a charge of

q=-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C

In this problem, the total charge is

Q=-30.0 \mu C=-30.0 \cdot 10^{-6} C

Therefore, the number of electrons contained in this total charge will be given by the total charge divided by the charge of a single electron:

N=\frac{Q}{q}=\frac{-30.0 \cdot 10^{-6} C}{-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C}=1.88 \cdot 10^{14}

The current in a toaster is 20 amps, and its voltage is 200 volts. What is the resistance in the toaster?
alukav5142 [94]
<span>Ohm's law deals with the relation between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. It states that: Potential difference across a conductor is proportional to the current that pass through it. It is expressed as V=IR. 

V = IR
200 = 20R
R = 10 ohms</span>
