Explanation:

Let x = distance of $F_1$ from the fulcrum and let's assume that the counterclockwise direction is positive. In order to attain equilibrium, the net torque $\tau_{net}$ about the fulcrum is zero:

$\tau_{net} = -F_1x + F_2d_2 = 0$

$-m_1gx + m_2gd_2 = 0$

$m_1x = m_2d_2$

Solving for <em>x</em>,

$x = \dfrac{m_2}{m_1}d_2$

At First, there is chemical Energy( in your muscels) which is Used to Push down the spring. This Energy becomes the Energy of the spring, which increases until you stop pushing. If you Put your hand away, the Energy of the spring will become kinetic energ. This Energy is at the highest Level the Moment the book ist Leaving the spring. Afterwards, the kinetic Energy decreases while the Gravitational Potential Energy increases.

A wire with a length of 150 m and a radius of 0.15 mm carries a current with a uniform current density of 2.8 x 10^7A/m^2. The c

Mrac [35]

Answer:

The current is 2.0 A.

(A) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 150 m

Radius = 0.15 mm

Current density $J=2.8\times10^{7}\ A/m^2$

We need to calculate the current

Using formula of current density

$J = \dfrac{I}{A}$

$I=J\timesA$

Where, J = current density

A = area

I = current

Put the value into the formula

$I=2.8\times10^{7}\times\pi\times(0.15\times10^{-3})^2$

$I=1.97=2.0\ A$

Hence, The current is 2.0 A.

A 36.0 kg box initially at rest is pushed 5.00 m along a rough, horizontal floor with a constant applied horizontal force of 130

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

(a) W = 650J

(b) Wf = 529.2J

(d) W = 0J

(e) ΔK = 120.8J

(f) v2 = 2.58 m/s

Explanation:

(a) In order to find the work done by the applied force you use the following formula:

$W=Fd$ (1)

F: applied force = 130N

d: distance = 5.0m

$W=(130N)(5.0m)=650J$

The work done by the applied force is 650J

(b) The increase in the internal energy of the box-floor system is given by the work done of the friction force, which is calculated as follow:

$W_f=F_fd=\mu Mgd$ (2)

μ: coefficient of friction = 0.300

M: mass of the box = 36.0kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

$W_f=(0.300)(36.0kg)(9.8m/s^2)(5.0m)=529.2J$

The increase in the internal energy is 529.2J

(c) The normal force does not make work on the box because the normal force is perpendicular to the motion of the box.

$W = 0J$

(d) The same for the work done by the normal force. The work done by the gravitational force is zero because the motion of the box is perpendicular o the direction of the gravitational force.

(e) The change in the kinetic energy is given by the net work on the box. You use the following formula:

$\Delta K=W_T$ (3)
