One method of determining the location of the center of gravity of a person is to weigh the person as he/she lies on a board of

negligible weight supported by two scales. In one example the height of the man is 190 cm; when he lies on the board, the left scale reads 450 N and the right scale reads 390 N. The center of gravity of the man relative to his feet on the right is?

Answer:

x = 1.018 m

Explanation:

given,

height of man = 190 cm

                       = 1.9 m

scale reading on left = 450 N

scale reading on the right = 390 N

Let center of gravity of man be x distance from feet, feet is on right side.

For system to be in equilibrium moment about center should be equal to zero.

∑M = 0

now,

450(1.9 - x ) - 390 × x = 0

450(1.9 - x ) = 390 × x

855 - 450 x = 390 x

840 x = 855

 x = \dfrac{855}{840}

 x = 1.018 m

hence, point of center of gravity from feet is equal to x = 1.018 m

If the battery of your phone can provide 2 mA of current to your phone and holds a charge of 130 C, how long will it take a full
Naya [18.7K]

Answer: 65000 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Current (I) = 2 mA

(Since 1 mA = 1 x 10^-3A

2 mA = 2 x 10^-3A)

Charge (Q) = 130 C

Time taken for a fully charged phone to die (T) = ?

Recall that the charge is the product of current and time taken.

i.e Q = I x T

130C = 2 x 10^-3A x T

T = 130C / (2 x 10^-3A)

T = 65000 seconds (time will be in seconds because seconds is the unit of time)

Thus, it will take a fully charged phone 65000 seconds to die

the curiosity rover sent to explore the surface of mars has an electric generator powered by heat from the radioactive decay of
pav-90 [236]

An element can be identified by its unique atomic number. When we look in the periodic table, we find that the element with an atomic number of 9292 is uranium. There is only option containing uranium which also confirms the mass number we found. So, the daughter nucleus of the decay is 234^U.

In an alpha decay, a positively charged particle similar to a helium-4 nucleus gets released from the parent nucleus spontaneously. As the composition suggests, an alpha particle consists of two protons and 2 neutrons. The particle does not travel much, but in short range, it carries the most energy.

It's smart to use the thermal energy provided by the radioactive decay to generate electricity. This allows for a stable supply of power without consuming much space which means the saved space can be used for more scientific equipment.  The alpha particle, structurally equivalent to the nucleus of a helium atom.
