The pivot point of a ____ is called the fulcrum.

Luis and Aisha conducted an experiment. They exerted different forces on four objects. Their results are shown in the table.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Object 3 has greatest acceleration.

Explanation:

Objects Mass Force

1 10 kg 4 N

2 100 grams 20 N

3 10 grams 4 N

4 1 kg 20 N

Acceleration of object 1,

$a_1=\dfrac{F_1}{m_1}\\\\a_1=\dfrac{4}{10}\\\\a_1=0.4\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of object 2,

$a_2=\dfrac{F_2}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{20}{0.1}\\\\a_2=200\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of object 3,

$a_3=\dfrac{F_3}{m_3}\\\\a_3=\dfrac{4}{0.01}\\\\a_3=400\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of object 4,

$a_4=\dfrac{F_4}{m_4}\\\\a_4=\dfrac{20}{1}\\\\a_3=20\ m/s^2$

It is clear that the acceleration of object 3 is $400\ m/s^2$ and it is greatest of all. So, the correct option is (3).

What is the objective of playing basagang palayok?the goal what is the goal of playing basang palayok

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

At first glance, it looked like a group of kids-at-heart playing traditional Filipino games under the sun. But up close the games were played by public school teachers staging a unique protest to demand government to prioritize their welfare.

Some 100 members of the Teacher’ Dignity Coalition (TDC) from Metro Manila staged what they called “Palarong Pampista” at the Plaza Miranda in Manila yesterday to demand salary increases this year.

The protest is part of the “Protest de Mayo” launched by TDC earlier this month to call for a P10,000 across-the-board increase in salaries of government teachers and the scrapping of the performance-based bonus of the Aquino government which they described as “deceptive, unfair and divisive.”

During the protest, teachers played traditional fiesta games like Palo Sebo and Basagang Palayok “to demonstrate their sacrifices for the country despite the inadequate compensation from the government.”

TDC National Chairperson Benjo Basas said Palo Sebo and Basagang Palayok were symbols of how the government is treating public school teachers.

Palo Sebo, a popular fiesta game in which contestants climb a greased bamboo in order to get the money prize at the top, is the same as the government’s performance-based bonus or PBB, Basas said.

“It promises a cash prize, but teachers and employees need to fight and pull others down in order to be on top,” he explained.

The Basagang Palayok is also another popular fiesta game where the players’ objective is to hit the hanging pot with prizes. Basas said that in this game, “the player is blindfolded, and like the P10,000 salary increase demand, the prize is uncertain and the players must make all the effort and pass the obstacles.”

Earlier, Education Secretary Armin Luistro said that the Department of Education (DepEd) “recognizes the right of our teachers to raise their concerns publicly.”

“We will not object to any measure that will help public school teachers,” said Luistro. “As long as there is adequate funding, a raise in teachers’ salaries will be welcome,” he said.

However, while DepEd expressed support to the plight of public school teachers for salary increase, Luistro enjoined “certain groups not to take any action that greatly affects the delivery of basic services to our learners.”

TDC, a 30,000-strong group, has set several other unique mass actions until the resumption of classes in June 2 in all public elementary and secondary schools nationwide.

What can increase the gravitational potential energy of a object

love history [14]

Answer:

Increase in mass and height

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object can increase if the mass and height of object is increased.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

It is expressed as:

Gravitational potential energy = mass x acceleration due gravity x height

Increasing mass and height will cause an increase in gravitational potential energy.

A penny rides on top of a piston as it undergoes vertical simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 4.0cm. If the frequency is

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

the penny loses contact at the piston's highest point.

f = 2.5 Hz

Explanation:

Concepts and Principles

1- Newton's Second Law: The net force F on a body with mass m is related to the body's acceleration a by

∑F = ma (1)

2- The maximum transverse acceleration of a particle in simple harmonic motion is found in terms of the angular speed w and the amplitude A as follows:

a_max = -w^2A (2)

3- The angular frequency w of a wave is related to the frequency f by:

w = 2π f (3)

Given Data

- The amplitude of the piston is: A = (4.0 cm) ( 1/ 100 cm)= 0.04 m.

- The frequency of oscillation of the piston is steadily increased.

Required Data

<em>In part (a), we are asked to determine the point at which the penny first loses contact with the piston. </em>

<em>In part (b), we are asked to determine the maximum frequency for which the penny just barely remains in place for a full cycle. </em>

Solution

(a)

The free-body diagram in Figure 1 shows the forces acting on the penny; mi is the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the penny andrt is the normal contact force exerted by the piston on the penny.

figure 1 is attached

Apply Newton's second law from Equation (1) in the vertical direction to the penny:

∑F_y -mg= ma

Solve for n=m(g+a) The penny loses contact with the surface of the oscillating piston when the normal force n exerted by the piston is zero. So

0 = m(g + a)

a = —g

Therefore, the penny loses contact with the piston when the piston starts accelerating downwards. The piston first acceleratesdownward at its highest point and hence the penny loses contact at the piston's highest point.

(b)

The maximum acceleration of the penny at the highest point of the piston is found from Equation (2):

a = —w^2A

where a = —g at the highest point. So

g = w^2A

Solve for w:

w =√g/A

Substitute for w from Equation (3):

2πf = √g/A

Solve for f :

f = 1/2π√g/A

Substitute numerical values:

f = 1/2π√9.8 m/s^2/0.04

f = 2.5 Hz
