Three objects are positioned along the x axis as follows: 4.4 kg at x = + 1.1 m, 3.7 kg at x = +0.80 m, and 2.9 kg at x = +1.6 m

. The acceleration due to gravity is the same everywhere. What is the location of the center of gravity for this system? Group of answer choices

Answer:

the distance from the location of the center of gravity to the location of the center o mass for this system is 1.13m

Explanation:

Given that

m₁=4.4kg

x₁=+1.1m

m₂=3.7kg

x₂=+0.80m

m₃=2.9kg

x₃=+1.6m

The position of the center of mass is

         Xcm = [m₁x₁ +m₂x₂ +m₃x₃]/(m₁+m₂+m₃)

                = [(4.40kg)(1.1 m)+(3.70 kg)(0.80 m)+(2.90 kg)(1.60 m)]/(4.4 kg + 3.70 kg+2.90 kg)

              = 1.13 m

The position of the center of gravity is 1.13m

Therefore, the distance from the location of the center of gravity to the location of the center o mass for this system is 1.13m

Anestetic [448]
I think the correct answer is the third statement, electron from escaping from the tube containing the triode. The negative charge on the grid repels any electron in the tube. As a result,the flow of current is controlled. If the field is that strong, all current flow will stop resulting to maintaining the electron cloud in the tube.

If two bodies weighing 10 kg and 20 kg respectively are standing at the
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

potential energy = mgh , where m is mass of body , g is acceleration due to gravity and h is given height

since both of the body are at same height above the ground , so the body having greater mass will have more potential energy

that is 20 kg body will have higher P.E

A train has a constant velocity of 2 m/s east. What is the magnitude of the horizontal acceleration of the train? A. −2 m/s² B.
Serga [27]

"Acceleration" is the rate at which velocity changes.
So "constant velocity" is a very good definition of "no acceleration".

Choice-B is the correct one.

Two runners start at a distance of 10 miles from each other. They run towards each other at a constant velocity of 5 mph. A fly
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The fly will travel 20 miles before the runners collide with each other.

Explanation:

Since the runners are both traveling at the same speed, they will meet and collide in the exact middle of each other which is 5 miles away from their starting point. Since they are traveling at 5 mph, it will take exactly one hour before they collide. The fly is going 20 mph so it will travel 20 miles before the runners collide in one hour.
