An 80-cm uniform 10-kg bar is resting on two scales, one at either end. A smaller 4-kg mass (m) is placed at a distance of d = 2

0 cm from the left end. Because the mass is closer to the left scale, it reads a higher weight than the right scale. What is the difference between the weights read by the two scales (left scale minus right scale)?

Answer

given,

length of bar = 80 cm

mass of the bar = 10 kg

smaller mass = 4 kg

distance = 20 cm

s_1 + s_2 = 10 + 4

s_1 + s_2 = 14\ kg

taking moment about B

s_1 \times 0.8 - 10 \times 0.4 - 4 \times 0.6 = 0

s_1 \times 0.8 = 6.4

s_1 = 8\ N

s_2 = 14 - s_1

s_2 = 14 - 8

s_2 = 6 N

difference between two scale = 8 - 6

                                                  = 2 N

A car changes chemical energy from fuel into thermal energy and ________ energy.
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Mechanical energy

Explanation:

A car changes chemical energy from fuel into thermal energy and mechanical energy.

Mechanical energy can be defined as the type of energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or position. Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy, that is, the sum of energy in motion and stored energy. Examples of mechanical energy includes driving a car, riding a bicycle, listening to music etc.

Types of mechanical energy

1. Motion energy (kinetic energy)

2. Stored energy(potential energy)

Mechanical energy = Kinetic energy + Potential energy

Density is a physical property that relates the mass of a substance to its volume. A. Calculate the density, in g/mL , of a liqu
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

A) 0.660 g/ml

B) 1.297 ml

C) 0.272 g

Explanation:

Every substance, body or material has mass and volume, however the mass of different substances occupy different volumes.  This is where density D appears as a  physical characteristic property of matter that establishes a relationship between the mass m of a body or substance and the volume V it occupies:

D=\frac{m}{V} (1)

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2 /><h2>Answer A:</h2>

Here the mass is m=0.155g and th volume V=0.000235L=0.235mL

Solving (1) with these values:

D=\frac{0.155g}{0.235mL} (2)

D=0.660g/mL (3)

<h2>Answer B:</h2>

In this case the mass of a sample is m=4.71g and its density is D=3.63g/mL.

Isolating V from (1):

V=\frac{m}{D} (4)

V=\frac{4.71g}{3.63g/mL} (5)

V=1.297mL (5)

<h2>Answer C:</h2>

In this case the volume of a sample is V=0.293mL and its density is D=0.930g/mL.

Isolating m from (1):

m=D.V (6)

m=(0.930g/mL)(0.293mL) (7)

m=0.272g (8)

I cant solve this problem, and our teacher said that this would be in the test we'll have tomorrow, can someone help me?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

d = 11.1 m

Explanation:

Since the inclined plane is frictionless, this is just a simple application of the conservation law of energy:

\frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  = mgh

Let d be the displacement along the inclined plane. Note that the height h in terms of d and the angle is as follows:

\sin(15)  =  \frac{h}{d}  \\ or \: h = d \sin(15)

Plugging this into the energy conservation equation and cancelling m, we get

{v}^{2}  = 2gd \sin(15)

Solving for d,

d =  \frac{ {v}^{2} }{2g \sin(15) }  =  \frac{ {(7.5 \:  \frac{m}{s}) }^{2} }{2(9.8 \:  \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} })(0.259)}   \\ = 11.1 \: m
