Answer:

300 Pascal

Explanation:

Given

weight or force (F) = 6000 N

area (A) = 20 m²

pressure (p) = ?

we know

the force acting normally per unit area is pressure. So

P = F / A

= 6000 / 20

= 300 Pascal

Hope it will help :)

kifflom [539]

Answer:

U² = 142.86 N

U¹ = 357.14 N

Explanation:

Taking summation of the moment about point A, we get the following equilibrium equation: (taking clockwise direction as positive)

W(2\ m) - U^2(7\ m) = 0

where,

W = weight of boy = 500 N

U² = reaction ay B = ?

Therefore,

(500\ N)(2\ m)-(U^2)(7\ m)=0\\U^2=\frac{1000\ Nm}{7\ m}\\

<u>U² = 142.86 N</u>

Now, taking summation of forces on the plank. Taking upward direction as positive, for equilibrium position:

W-U^1-U^2=0\\500\ N - 142.86\ N = U^1\\

<u>U¹ = 357.14 N</u>

True or False<br><br> An object will slow down and stop as long as no forces act upon it
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

Understand Newton’s first law of motion. Experience suggests that an object at rest will remain at rest if left alone, and that an object in motion tends to slow down and stop unless some effort is made to keep it moving. An object will go on forever if there were no forces to act upon it. In space, a rocket will go forever at the speed it projects.
