Answer:

Explanation:

There will be reaction force by  each vertical post on horizontal plank . Let it be R₁ and R₂ . R₁ is reaction force by the post nearer to woman

Taking torque of all forces about the end far away from the woman

Torque by reaction force = R₁ x 5.5

= 5.5 R₁ upwards

Torque by weight of woman in opposite direction , downwards

= - 804 x ( 5.5 - 1.55 )

= - 3175.8

Torque by weight of the plank in opposite direction , downwards .

= - 27 x 5.5 / 2

= - 74.25

Torque by R₂ will be zero as it passes through the point about which torque is being taken .

Total torque

= 5.5 R₁ - - 3175.8 - - 74.25  = 0 ( For equilibrium )

5.5 R₁ = 3250

R₁ = 590.9 N .

Container A and container B hold samples of the same ideal gas. The volume and the pressure of container A is equal to the volum
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

A. TA = TB/2.

Explanation:

Since container A has half as many molecules of the ideal gas in it as container B. Therefore, container A will have half the volume of gas as in container B:

V_A = \frac{1}{2}V_B

Now, from Charle's Law:

\frac{V_A}{T_A}=\frac{V_B}{T_B}\\\\\frac{1}{2}\frac{V_B}{T_A}=\frac{V_B}{T_B}\\\\T_A = \frac{T_B}{2}

Hence, the correct option is:

<u>A. TA = TB/2.</u>

How much does a 200 kg car weigh?
adoni [48]
These weights are minus the transmission which can push the car engine weight to around 600 pounds. While most formula ones cars are extremely fast the engines used are lightweight and weigh 100 kg or 210 pounds.

Suppose there was a star with a parallax angle of 1 arcsecond. How far away would it be?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer: 3.26 light years

Explanation:

Each star has a parallax of one arcsecond at a distance of one parsec, which is equivalent to 3.26 light years.

so the parallax of 1 arcsecond will be at a distance of <em>1/1 × 3.26 light years</em>

An aircraft flying in a straight
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

t = 10.1 s

d = 2020 m

Explanation:

Time to drop from vertical rest

h = ½gt²

t = √(2h/g) = √(2(500)/9.8) = 10.1 s

d = vt = 200(10.1) = 2020 m
