Answer:

300N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure is calculated using the formula;

Pressure = Force/Area

Given

Force = 2400N

Area = 4m×2m = 8m²

Substitute the given parameters into the formula as shown;

Pressure = 2400/8

Pressure = 300N/m²

Hence the pressure the statue exerts on the floor is 300N/m²

A rock at rest has weight 138 n. what is the weight of the rock when it is accelerating downward at 3.5 m/s2?
tamaranim1 [39]
<span>The weight of the rock is 138n when accelerating downward at 3.5m/ s2.Weight is a measurement of the force of gravity on an objects mass. Therefore as long as the force of gravity is the same and the mass of the rock is the same the weight should also be the same.</span>

When a trebuchet counterweight is hoisted by soldiers, what form of energy is
vladimir1956 [14]
10. A safe place to use the trebuchet would be away from other buildings and people. A good example of a place would be a large field with no nearby structures. 
14. Many factors need to be kept consistent throughout the experiment. One example of a variable that would need to be consistent is the weight and size of the projectile. 
15. It is important to do many trials so that you can make sure that the results of each trial are nearly the same. If they are all vastly different, then it means that something has gone wrong. 

Sorry I was only able to answer a few questions, but I hope these few answers help! :)

What does the potential energy diagram of a chemical reaction tell you
sattari [20]
By looking at the potential energies before and after the reaction, we can tell that the reaction is exothermic (final < initial) or endodermic (final > initial).

Also, the amount of activation energy gives an idea of the external energy required to initiate the reaction (for example, by heating the reactants).
Furthermore, by the same principle, we can also deduce the activation energy for the reverse reaction.

If a catalyst is available, the diagram will show a reduced activation energy, compared to a reaction without catalyst.  However, it will also show that the catalyst does not alter the initial and final energies of the reaction.

Two parallel wires separated by a distance of 0.6 m each carry current in the same direction. One wire is carrying a current of
mart [117]

Answer:

The value is  B =  3.33 *10^{-6} \  T

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The distance of separation is  d = 0.6 \  m

  The current on the one wire is I_1 =  9 \  A

  The current on the second wire is I_2 =  4 \ A

Generally the magnitude of the field exerted between the current carrying wire is

        B  =  B_1 - B_2

Here B_1 is the magnetic field due to the first wire which is mathematically represented as

         B_1 = \frac{\mu_o * I_1 }{2 \pi * d_1}

Here d_1 is the distance to the half way point of the separation and the value is  

    d_1 =  0.3 \  m

B_2 is the magnetic field due to the first wire which is mathematically represented as

         B_2  = \frac{\mu_o * I_2 }{2 \pi * d_2}

Here d_2 is the distance to the half way point of the separation and the value is  

    d_2 =  0.3 \  m  

This means that d_1 = d_2 = a =  0.3

So

     B =  \frac{\mu_o * I_1 }{2 \pi * d_1}  -  \frac{\mu_o * I_2 }{2 \pi * d_2}

=>  B =  \frac{\mu_o * (I_1 - I_2)}{2 \pi *0.3 }

=>  B =  \frac{  4\pi * 10^{-7}  * (9- 4)}{2 * 3.142  *0.3 }

=>  B =  3.33 *10^{-6} \  T
