Answer:

1st – Place the film canister on the <u>scale</u>.

2nd – Slide the large <u>weight </u>to the right until the arm drops below the line and then move it back one notch.

3rd – Repeat this process with the <u>top</u> weight. When the arm moves below the line, back it up one groove.

4th – Slide the <u>small </u>weight on the front beam until the <u>lines</u> match up.

5th – Add the amounts on each beam to find the total <u>mass </u>to the nearest tenth of a gram.

Explanation:

The triple beam balance is an instrument that is used in measuring the mass of substances to a very high degree of precision. The reading error is given by ±0.05 grams. The triple beam balance as the name implies has three beams that measure substances of different mass levels.

The beams are categorized as small, medium, and large. There is a balance on which the substance to be weighed is placed directly upon. To use this measuring device, the procedures mentioned above are followed.

(6) Given that,

Force in east direction = 67 N

Force in west direction = 82 N

Solution,

According to the given figure,

Two forces are acting in opposite direction. Maximum force is acting in west direction. It means the net force is acting in west direction.

Net force = 82-67

= 15 N (Due west)

The forces are unbalanced. It is because the magnitude of force in west is more than in east.

Net force = 15 N, Direction of motion = West and the forces are unbalanced.

How long does it take for the speed of light and sound to travel around the world
irina [24]

-- Light travels straight, not around in a circle. But if it did, it would cover
a distance equal to the length of the equator in about <em>0.13 second</em>.

-- At the speed of sound (in air at standard temperature and pressure),
it would take about <em>32.6 hours </em>to cover the same distance.
