Answer: 3 m.
Explanation:
Neglecting the mass of the seesaw, in order the seesaw to be balanced, the sum of the torques created by gravity acting on both children must be 0.
As we are asked to locate Jack at some distance from the fulcrum, we can take torques regarding the fulcrum, which is located at just in the middle of the length of the seesaw.
If we choose the counterclockwise direction as positive, we can write the torque equation as follows (assuming that Jill sits at the left end of the seesaw):
mJill* 5m -mJack* d = 0
60 kg*5 m -100 kg* d =0
Solving for d:
d = 3 m.

Answer:
The generator produces electrical energy at a rate of 1378125000 J per second.
Explanation:
volume of water falling each second is 1250 
height through which it falls, h is 150 m
mass of 1
of water is 1000 kg
⇒mass of 1250
of water, m = 1250×1000 = 1250000 kg
acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 
in falling through 150 m in each second, by Work-Energy Theorem:
Kinetic Energy(KE) gained by it = Potential Energy(PE) lost by it
⇒KE = mgh
= 1250000×9.8×150 J
= 1837500000 J
Electrical Energy =
(KE)
=
×1837500000
= <u>1378125000 J per second</u>
Answer:
2.35 s
Explanation:
The period of a simple pendulum is expressed as;
T = 2π
Where
T is the period in seconds
L is the length in metres
g is acceleration due to gravity
T = 2π
T = 2.349 s
T = 2.35 s
