A 1.7m long barbell has a 20kg weight on its left and a 35kg weight on its right. (a) If you ignore the weight of the bar itself

, how far from the left end of the barbell is the center of gravity? (b) Where is the center of gravity if the 8.0 kg mass of the barbell is taken into account?

Answer:

(a) 1.08 m

(b) 1.06 m

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> calculate the center of gravity from 20kg mass

Let the center of gravity from 20kg mass = X

Applying the principle of moment; clockwise moment = ant-clockwise moment

20*X = 35*(1.7-X)

20X = 59.5 - 35X

55X = 59.5

X = 59.5/55

X = 1.08 m

Ignoring the weight of the bar, the center of gravity is 1.08m from left end of the barbell.

<u>Step 2:</u> calculate the center of gravity from 20kg mass, if the 8.0kg mass of the barbell in considered.

Applying the principle of moment

(20*X)+\frac{X}{2}(\frac{8}{1.7}) = 35(1.7-X) + (\frac{1.7-X}{2})(\frac{8}{1.7})

20X + 2.353X = 59.5 -35X +2.353(1.7-X)

20X +2.353X = 59.5 -35X + 4 - 2.353X

59.706X = 63.5

X = 63.5/59.706

X = 1.06 m

considering the weight of the bar, the center of gravity is 1.06m from left end of the barbell.

Monochromatic light is incident on (and perpendicular to) two slits separated by 0.200 mm, which causes an interference pattern
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

I = 0.636*Imax

Explanation:

(a) To find the fraction of the maximum intensity at a distance y from the central maximum you use the following formula:

I=I_{max}cos^2(\frac{\pi d}{\lambda L}y)   (1)

I: intensity of light

Imax: maximum intensity of light

d: separation between slits = 0.200mm = 0.200 *10^-3 m

L: distance from the screen = 613cm = 0.613 m

y: distance to the central peak of the interference pattern

λ: wavelength of light = 656.3 nm = 656.3 *10^-9 m

You replace the values of all variables in the equation (1):

I=I_{max}cos^2(\frac{\pi (0.200*10^{-3}m)}{(656.3*10^{-9}m)(0.613m)}0.600m)\\\\I=I_{max}cos^2(937.06)=0.636I_{max}

Hence, the fraction of the maximum intensity is I = 0.636*Imax

a ball drops some distance and loses 30 j of gravitational potential energy. do not ignore air resistance. how much kinetic ener
aniked [119]

Thus, more than 30 J of potential energy can be loosed by the ball. Thus, the gravitational potential energy of the ball is more than 30 J.

If there is no air resistance, the ball's potential energy is entirely transformed into kinetic energy. When air resistance is taken into account, a portion of the potential energy is used to overcome it. Thus, AU > AKE. In the current scenario, a ball gains 30 J of kinetic energy while falling and is treated as encountering air resistance. The energy that an object retains due to its position in relation to other objects, internal stresses, electric charge, or other factors is known as potential energy in physics. The potential energy will be transformed into kinetic energy if the stones fall. High on the tree, branches have the potential to fall, which gives them energy. Chemical potential energy exists in the food we eat.
