A uniform brick of length 21 m is placed over
1 answer:
Answer:
15.75 m
Explanation:
First, let's look at the top brick by itself. In order for it not to tip over the bottom brick, its center of gravity must be right at the edge of the bottom brick. So the edge of the top brick must be 10.5 m from the edge of the bottom brick.
Now let's look at both bricks as a combined mass. We know the total length of this combined brick is 10.5 m + 21 m = 31.5 m. And we know that for it to not tip over the edge of the surface, its center of gravity must be at the edge. So the edge of the combined brick must be 31.5 m / 2 = 15.75 m from the edge of the surface.

b)
Explanation:
Given:
mass of bullet,
compression of the spring,
force required for the given compression,
(a)
We know
where:
a= acceleration
we have:
initial velocity,
Using the eq. of motion:
where:
v= final velocity after the separation of spring with the bullet.
(b)
Now, in vertical direction we take the above velocity as the initial velocity "u"
so,
∵At maximum height the final velocity will be zero
Using the equation of motion:
where:
h= height
g= acceleration due to gravity
is the height from the release position of the spring.
So, the height from the latched position be:
