Explanation:
Given that,
Mass if the rock, m = 1 kg
It is suspended from the tip of a horizontal meter stick at the 0-cm mark so that the meter stick barely balances like a seesaw when its fulcrum is at the 12.5-cm mark.
We need to find the mass of the meter stick. The force acting by the stone is
F = 1 × 9.8 = 9.8 N
Let W be the weight of the meter stick. If the net torque is zero on the stick then the stick does not move and it remains in equilibrium condition. So, taking torque about the pivot.
W = 3.266 N
The mass of the meters stick is :
So, the mass of the meter stick is 0.333 kg.
Answer:
The ballon will brust at
<em>Pmax = 518 Torr ≈ 0.687 Atm </em>

Explanation:
Hello!
To solve this problem we are going to use the ideal gass law
PV = nRT
Where n (number of moles) and R are constants (in the present case)
Therefore, we can relate to thermodynamic states with their respective pressure, volume and temperature.
--- (*)
Our initial state is:
P1 = 754 torr
V1 = 3.1 L
T1 = 294 K
If we consider the final state at which the ballon will explode, then:
P2 = Pmax
V2 = Vmax
T2 = 273 K
We also know that the maximum surface area is: 1257 cm^2
If we consider a spherical ballon, we can obtain the maximum radius:
Rmax = 10.001 cm
Therefore, the max volume will be:
Vmax = 4 190.05 cm^3 = 4.19 L
Now, from (*)
Therefore:
Pmax= P1 * (0.687)
That is:
Pmax = 518 Torr

Answer: The Transit method</h2>
Detecting extrasolar planets by direct observation (with a telescope) is a complicated task. This is because any planet constitutes an extremely dim light source compared to the star around which it orbits.
So, to detect this extremely dim source is quite difficult due to the glare of the star's light that dulls it.
In this sense, scientists and astronomers have made several methods to find these extrasolar planets, among which the most successful has been the transit method.
This method is based on <u>astronomical transit</u>, a phenomenon in which a body (a planet in this case) passes in front of a larger one (the star), blocking (eclipsing) its vision to some extent.
It should be noted that this is the method currently used in the search for extrasolar planets. Space agencies such as ESA (Europe) and NASA (USA) have put into orbit satellites with extremely sensitive photometric sensors to observe even the smallest variations of intensity of a star due to the passage of a planet.
Answer:
C. It is negative
Explanation:
Per Newton's second law, the net force is the mass times the acceleration:
∑F = ma
If the acceleration is negative, the net force is negative.
The printing press had dramatic effects on European civilization. Its immediate effect was that it spread information quickly and accurately. This helped create a wider literate reading public.
