A steel beam that is 7.00 m long weighs 326 N. It rests on two supports, 3.00 m apart, with equal amounts of the beam extending

from each end. Suki, who weighs 555 N, stands on the beam in the center and then walks toward one end. How close to the end can she come before the beam begins to tip?

Answer:

The answer to the question is

Suki is 1.12 m close to the end of the steel beam before the beam begins to tip

Explanation:

To solve the question we list out the known variables first

Length of steel beam, L = 7.00 m

Weight  of steal beam W = 326 N

Distance between supports = 3.00 m

Weight of Suki = 555 N

By moments theory, the sum of moments about a point = 0

and assuming the steal beam is uniform, the weight of the beam will act at the center of the beam

As described the supports are 2.00 m from each end of the beam thus

taking moments about one of the support with Suki between  the end of the beam and the support we have

Distance from center of beam to support = 1.5 m

Distance of Suki to the nearest support = x m

therefore 555 × x + 326 × 1.5 = 0

or x = -0.881 m on the other side of the support

Therefore Suki is (2 - 0.881) m or 1.12 m close to the end before the beam begins to tip

The images show two unrelated events occurring at separate times.
trapecia [35]

Event 1 is an example of a chemical reaction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Whenever if two solutions are mixed, then if there is any color change, or evolution of any vapors, bubbles or gas formation or if there is any formation of a color or white precipitate confirms that the occurrence of a chemical reaction.

If nothing happens said above then it is said that there is no chemical reaction occurs.

Here in the event 1 a clear liquid in one beaker poured into clear liquid in beaker 2 then there is a formation of orange liquid, which means there is a formation of a new colored liquid confirms that the chemical reaction occurred.

Arrange the following chloroarenes in increasing order of their reactivity in nucleophilic substitution to form their correspond
pantera1 [17]
The question is incomplete. Complete question is attached below
..............................................................................................................................

Correct Answer: Option C i.e. I ~ III < IV < V < II

Reason:
During a nucleophilic subsitution reaction of chloroarenes, Cl- group is replaced by an nucleophile like OH-.

Order of reactivity, during such reactions depends on the electron density on carbon atom that is attached to Cl. Lower the electron density, greater will be the reactivity.

Among the provided chloroarenes, electron density on C atom will be minimum in case of compound II, because of presence of electron withdrawing group (-NO2) at ortho and para position. Due to this, there will be large number of resonating structures. This signifies greater electron de-localization, and hence largest reactivity for nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Followed by this, compound V will show greater reactivity, due to presence of -NO2 group at para and one of the ortho position. Compound IV will have less number of resonating structures as compared to compound II and V, hence it will display poor reactivity towards nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Finally, compound 1 and III will minimum reactivity towards nucleophilic substitution reaction, because -NO2 group present at meta position (compound III) will not participate in resonance.

Which element is the excess reagent when 3.00 moles of Mg is ignited in 2.20 moles of pure oxygen
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Oxygen is in excess.

Explanation:

The coefficients of the balanced equation create a mole ratio that shows the ratio of how many reactants are used up and products are created.  

The mole ratio of Mg to O2 in this equation is 2:1, which means that for every two moles of Mg used, there will be 1 mole of O2 used.

If we have 3.00 moles of Mg, we will only need 1.5 moles of oxygen to completely burn the Mg. Therefore, when all 3.00 moles of Mg are used, there will still be some of the 2.20 moles of oxygen remaining.
