A heavy boy and a lightweight girl are balanced on a massless seesaw. The boy moves backward, increasing his distance from the p

ivot point. What happens to the seesaw? It is impossible to predict without knowing additional information. The side the boy is sitting on will tilt downward. The side the girl is sitting on will tilt downward. Nothing; the seesaw will remain balanced.

Answer:

The side the boy is sitting on will tilt downward.

Explanation:

According to the law of moments when the same force is applied at a greater distance from the pivot then the effect of moment is greater about that point.

<u>Mathematically momentum is given as:</u>

M=F\times r

where:

F is the applied force at a distance 'r' acting in a direction perpendicular to the line joining the point of application and the hinge.

  • Moment is the rotational effect of the applied force on the body.

<em>When the boy of a heavier mass than the girl was sitting on a balanced see-saw then it is certain that he was closer to the hinge than the girl to balance the turning effect (in case of an unbiased see-saw). When the body moves farther his weight is same but the radial distance from the hinge increases which increases his moment of weight.</em>

The speed of sound in aluminum is 5200 m/s. Can you hear a sound with a
romanna [79]

Answer:

v = wavelength * frequency

frequency = 5200 m/s / .2 m = 26000 / sec

20,000 / sec is optimistic for the upper frequency of human hearing

So 26,000 is above the hearing range for human ears

The mass of the car?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

1050 kg

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is:

KE (kinetic energy) = 1/2 × m × v² where <em>m</em> is the <em>mass in kg </em>and <em>v</em> is the velocity or <em>speed</em> of the object <em>in m/s</em>.

We can now substitute the values we know into this equation.

KE = 472 500 J and v = 30 m/s:

472 500 = 1/2 × m × 30²

Next, we can rearrange the equation to make m the subject and solve for m:

m = 472 500 ÷ (1/2 × 30²)

m = 472 500 ÷ 450

m = 1050 kg

Hope this helps!

Which of the following is equal to Velocity change per second​
Mademuasel [1]

Acceleration

Explanation:

Acceleration is a physical quantity that expresses the change in the velocity of a body per unit of time.

  Acceleration = \frac{V - U }{T}

V is the initial velocity

U is the final velocity

T is the time

It is has a unit of m/s²

A sports car accelerates from rest for 5 seconds reaching a velocity of 23.0 m/s.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

<h2>4.6 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

<h3>a =  \frac{v - u}{t}  \\</h3>

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

a is the acceleration

Since the body is from rest u = 0

From the question we have

a =  \frac{23 - 0}{5}  =  \frac{23}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.6 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

What is the peak emf generated by a 0.250 m radius, 500-turn coil is rotated one-fourth of a revolution in 4.17 ms, originally h
zysi [14]

Complete question:

What is the peak emf generated by a 0.250 m radius, 500-turn coil is rotated one-fourth of a revolution in 4.17 ms, originally having its plane perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field 0.425 T. (This is 60 rev/s.)

Answer:

The peak emf generated by the coil is 15.721 kV

Explanation:

Given;

Radius of coil, r = 0.250 m

Number of turns, N = 500-turn

time of revolution, t = 4.17 ms = 4.17 x 10⁻³ s

magnetic field strength, B = 0.425 T

Induced peak emf = NABω

where;

A is the area of the coil

A = πr²

ω is angular velocity

ω = π/2t = (π) /(2 x 4.17 x 10⁻³) = 376.738 rad/s =  60 rev/s

Induced peak emf = NABω

                               = 500 x (π x 0.25²) x 0.425 x 376.738

                               = 15721.16 V

                               = 15.721 kV

Therefore, the peak emf generated by the coil is 15.721 kV
