To determine the centroid of the object first moment of area is used.

To predict the resistance of a shape to bending and deflection which are directly proportional, second moment of area is used.

Shtirlitz [24]

We can confirm that when you travel in an elevator, the utricle and saccule detect when the elevator is moving.

<h3>What are the utricle and saccule?</h3>

These are small organs located in the inner ear. They serve a very important function in our everyday life. These otolith organs are responsible for the detection of movement and provide us with a sense of spatial orientation. They accomplish this by stimulating very small, hair-like cells with a specialized fluid.

Therefore, we can confirm that when you travel in an elevator, the utricle and saccule detect when the elevator is accelerating or decelerating.

Which wave, A or B, has lower energy? A, because it has a higher amplitude B, because it has a higher amplitude A, because it ha
frutty [35]

Energy of wave depends on its amplitude and it is given as

E = \frac{1}{2} kA^2

here k = constant

A = amplitude

so energy will increase or decrease depends on the amplitude of the wave

So here if we need to check which wave has lower energy then we need to compare the amplitude.

If the amplitude is less then energy must be less

So please check in the figure that which wave out of A and B has lesser amplitude to find out the wave of lesser energy

A 5 kg fish swimming at 1 m/s swallows an absentminded 500 g fish swimming toward it at a veloc- ity that brings both fish to a
morpeh [17]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Mass of large fish, M = 5 Kg

speed of swimming, v' = 1 m/s

mass of small fish, m = 500 g = 0.5 Kg

speed of the fish = v

using conservation of momentum

m v + M v' = M u' + m u

final speed of both the speed is zero.

- 0.5 x v + 5 x 1  = 0

negative sign is used because small fish is moving in opposite direction.

now,

0.5 v = 5

v = 10 m/s

hence, the speed of the small fish is equal to 10 m/s.

2. You and a friend are spending a weekend at a carnival. You get bored and begin to make electrostatics measurements. It turns
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

B) -2 Coulombs

Explanation:

In order to find the net charge, we must add the charge that you have with the charge that your friend has, but taking into account the different sign. In fact, we have:

- Charge possessed by you: Q1 = +3 C

- Charge possessed by your friend: Q2 = -5 C

Therefore, the net charge possessed by both persons will be given by

Q = Q1 + Q2 = +3 C + (-5 C) = +3 C - 5 C = -2 C
