let the distance of pillar is "r" from one end of the slab

So here net torque must be balance with respect to pillar to be in balanced state

So here we will have

Mg(r - L/2) = mg(L/2 - 8)

here we know that

mg = 19600 N

Mg = 400,000 N

L = 20 m

from above equation we have

400,000(r - 10) = 19,600 (10 - 8)

r - 10 = 0.098

r = 10.098 m

so pillar is at distance 10.098 m from one end of the slab

A 25 kg child runs at a speed of 5.0 m/s and jumps onto a stationary shopping cart and holds on for dear life. The cart has mass
makkiz [27]

Answer:

3.38 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of child = m₁ = 25

Initial speed of child = u₁ = 5 m/s

Initial speed of cart = u₂ = 0 m/s

Mass of cart = m₂ = 12 kg

Velocity of cart with child on top = v

This is a case of perfectly inelastic collision

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{25\times 5+12\times 0}{25+12}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{125}{37}\\\Rightarrow v=3.38\ m/s

Velocity of cart with child on top is 3.38 m/s

A person kicks a 4.0-kilogram door with a 48-newton force causing the door to accelerate at 12 meters per second squared. What i
inna [77]

Answer:

-48 N

Explanation:

mass of door (m) = 4 kg

acceleration of the door = 12 m/s^{2}

force exerted by the person = 48 N

From Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal but opposite. Therefore the force exerted on the door by the person which is 48 N will be the same as the force exerted on the person by the door but opposite in its direction, and this would be - 48 N

brainly an andean condor with a wingspan and a mass soars along a horizontal path. model its wings as a rectangle with a width.
Anna35 [415]

The difference between the pressure at the top surfaces of the condor's wings and the pressure at the bottom surfaces is 101,204 Pa.

<h3>Difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the wingspan</h3>

The difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the wingspan is calculated as follows;

ΔP = P(top) - P(bottom)

<h3>Area of the wingspan</h3>

A = bh

A = 2.7 m x 0.27 m

A = 0.729 m²

<h3>Weight of the Andean condor</h3>

W = mg

W = 9 x 9.8

W = 88.2 N

<h3>Pressure at the top surface of condor's wings</h3>

The pressure at the top surface of condor's wings is due to atmospheric pressure

P(top) = 14.7 Psi = 101,325 Pa

<h3>Pressure at the bottom surface of condor's wings</h3>

The pressure at the bottom surface is due to weight of andean condor.

P = W/A

P(bottom) = 88.2/0.729

P(bottom) = 120.99 Pa

The difference between the pressure at the top surfaces of the condor's wings and the pressure at the bottom surfaces is calculated as;

ΔP = P(top) - P(bottom)

ΔP = 101,325 Pa - 120.99 Pa

ΔP = 101,204 Pa

The complete question is below;

An Andean condor with a wingspan of 270 cm and a mass of 9.00 kg soars along a horizontal path. Model its wings as a rectangle with a width of 27.0 cm.
