Answer:

The answer is c) same.

Explanation:

When a force is applied at some point on a rigid body, the body makes a rotational movement about the axis. Said property of the force applied to rotate the body is calculated with a magnitude known as torque, which is defined as the moment of force at a capacity of that force to make a rotation around a specific point.

for case 1, the magnitude of the torque is equal to:

τ = F*(L/2)

For case 2, the torque magnitude equals:

τ = F*sin(30°) = F*(L/2)

It can be seen that in both cases it is the same torque.

What is the best way to dry a thermometer servsafe?
Mandarinka [93]
A thermometer should be air dried so as to not damage it or anything similar. The three steps to cleaning it are washing, rinsing, and air drying it after. You shouldn't try to dry it other ways because it can damage it and this can cause a lot of troubles, so things cold air blowers or similar things can be very good in cleaning your thermometer.

What landform is created when magma squeezes between rock layers to form a hardened slab of rock?
Zigmanuir [339]
<span>D. sill

A sill forms when hot magma squeezes between layers of rock to form a hardened sheet of rock. A sill is basically a tabular sheet intrusion between old layers of sedimentary rock, volcanic beds, or in the direction of foliation inherent in metamorphic rock. The word sill means a concordant intrusive sheet.</span>

A student tests the acidity of nitric acid (HNO3) by dissolving a sample of HNO3 in a solution of liquid methane. He then uses a
DerKrebs [107]
Sorry I didn't see this before...
Okay, I see two major problems with this student's experiment:

1) Nitric acid Won't Dissolve in Methane
Nitric acid is what's called a mineral acid. That means it is inorganic (it doesn't contain carbon) and dissolves in water.
Methane is an organic molecule (it contains carbon). It literally cannot dissolve nitric acid. Here's why:
For nitric acid (HNO3) to dissolve into a solvent, that solvent must be polar. It must have a charge to pull the positively charged Hydrogen off of the Oxygen. Methane has no charge, since its carbon and hydrogens have nearly perfect covalent bonds. Thus it cannot dissolve nitric acid. There will be no solution. That leads to the next problem:

2) He's Not actually Measuring a Solution
He's picking up the pH of the pure nitric acid. Since it didn't dissolve, what's left isn't a solution—it's like mixing oil and water. He has groups of methane and groups of nitric acid. Since methane is perfectly neutral (neither acid nor base), the electronic instrument is only picking up the extremely acidic nitric acid. There's no point to what he's doing.
