<span>6160 joules

    to lift 1 newton 1 metre requires 1 joule
 there are 10 newtons in one kilo

    so 77(kg) x 8 (metres) x 10 (newtons/kilo) = 6160 joules</span>

How to calculate moments with 3 separate weights of different amounts at different points?
Rina8888 [55]
I don't completely understand your drawing, although I can see that you certainly
did put a lot of effort into making it.  But calculating the moment is easy, and we
can get along without the drawing.

Each separate weight has a 'moment'.
The moment of each weight is: 

             (the weight of it) x (its distance from the pivot/fulcrum) .

That's all there is to a 'moment'.

The lever (or the see-saw) is balanced when (the sum of all the moments
on one side) is equal to (the sum of the moments on the other side).

That's why when you're on the see-saw with a little kid, the little kid has to sit
farther away from the pivot than you do.  The kid has less weight than you do,
so he needs more distance in order for his moment to be equal to yours.

Zoe finds that the temperature of a substance is 12 degrees Celsius. What does this tell Zoe about the substance?
maks197457 [2]
Given the temperature, we can tell if the substance is cold or not relative to the reference temperature. For example, compared to the substance having a temperature of 15 degrees C, the substance is colder and it is hotter from the substance of temperature lesser than 12 degrees C.

26. A transformer increases or decreases
uysha [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Single-phase transformers can operate to either increasing or decreasing the voltage applied to the primary winding. When a transformer is used to “increase” the voltage on the secondary winding with respect to the primary, it is called a Step-up transformer

Car A, moving in a straight line at a constant speed of 20. meters per second, is initially 200 meters behind car B, moving in t
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
First, let's express the movement of Car A and B in terms of their position over time (relative to car B)
For car A: y=20x-200   Car A moves 20 meters every second x, and starts 200 meters behind car B
For Car B: y= 15x      Car B moves 15 meters every second and starts at our basis point

Set the two equations equal to one another to find the time x at which they meet:
20x - 200 = 15x
200 = 5x 
x= 40
At time x=40 seconds, the cars meet. How far will Car A have traveled at this time? 
Car A moves 20 meters every second:
20 x 40 = 800 meters
