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

an object is moving with initial velocity of 5 m/s. After 10 seconds final velocity is 10 m/s. Calculate its acceleration.​
Brut [27]

Answer:

0.5m/s2

Explanation:

acceleration= change in velocity/time taken

= v - u/ t

= 10-5/10

=5/10

= 0.5m/s2

Why aren’t descriptive investigations repeatable
Kobotan [32]

Answer;

It does not have an hypothesis

Explanation;

The goal of descriptive investigation is to describe. It should provide factual, accurate and systematic descriptions of phenomena without attempting to infer causal relationships. It does not answer questions about the how, when, or why a particular phenomenon occurred.

A descriptive investigation includes a question but no hypothesis. Observations are recorded, but no comparisons are made and no variables are manipulated.

Explanation:

Scientist and astronomers have observed that large gas clouds and massive stars are orbiting around in an accelerated manner in center of our galaxy that is milky way. A massive star S2's motion has been studied and it is found that the star is revolving around the center of the galaxy. From this scientist have confirmed presence of super massive black hole of 3 million solar masses lurking around the center of milky way.
