A cat walks along a plank with mass M= 7.00 kg. The plank is supported by two sawhorses. The center of mass of the plank is a di

stance d1= 0.850 m to the left of sawhorse B. When the cat is a distance d2= 1.11 m to the right of sawhorse B, the plank just begins to tip.If the cat has a mass of 3.6 kg, how far to the right of sawhorse B can it walk before the plank begins to tip?

Answer:

Before the plank will tip cat will walk 1.652 m

Explanation:

Mass of the cat along with plank m_1=7kg

Center of mass of the plank d_1=0.850m

Mass of cat m_2=3.6kg

We have to find how far right of sawhorse B.

Plank will tip when weight of the cat about B is greater than the torque by the weight of the plank.

Balancing the the torque

m_1gd_1=m_1gd_2

7\times 9.8\times 0.850=3.6\times 9.8\times d_2

d_2=1.652m

What produces an electromagnetic wave?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Let's rule out some of the options. C makes no sense because static charges will create electric fields only, so the charge has to move. D makes no sense because monopoles do not exist. We can rule out B because when a charge is moving at a constant velocity. You can use Maxwell's equations and general relativity to figure out that at a constant velocity, you can't produce an electromagnetic wave because there is no magnetic field. Therefore the answer is A. When you have an oscillating or accelerating electric charge, you will produce an EM wave.

Why are understandings of patterns so important to human development?
andrew11 [14]
