Answer:

I would say the stone is being used as a fulcrum.

Explanation:

An example of a fulcrum is the triangle thing under a seesaw. I don't know for sure if that's the right answer, but I would strongly suggest it. Hope I helped,  have a nice day :)

Answer:

to lift and balance an object, the effort force the user applies multiplied by its distance to the fulcrum must equal the load force multiplied by its distance to the fulcrum. Consequently, the greater the distance between the effort force and the fulcrum, the heavier a load can be lifted with the same effort force.

Explanation:

Have you ever wondered how ancient people could lift very heavy objects, such as large stones, to build pyramids? A lever is a simple machine that can help people do just this. It can also help make other kinds of physical work easier by giving the user a mechanical advantage.

Common examples of levers you might see around you are seesaws, scissors, wheelbarrows and even the your own jaw. Although all of these levers have the same functional parts, they vary in where the different components are located. How much effort does it take to lift a heavy load using a common type of lever.

Seesaws and scissors belong to a certain class of levers, called class 1. Class 1 levers usually have a beam that is rigid, long and thin, like a ruler. Between the two ends of the beam is the fulcrum, or pivot point, which is the point at which the beam can balance and move freely up and down around. On one end, the user places the load to be moved. On the other end, the user can apply effort, or a force, to try and move the load.

The way levers work is by multiplying the effort exerted by the user. Specifically, to lift and balance an object, the effort force the user applies multiplied by its distance to the fulcrum must equal the load force multiplied by its distance to the fulcrum. Consequently, the greater the distance between the effort force and the fulcrum, the heavier a load can be lifted with the same effort force.

Charge: A piece of plastic has a net charge of +2.00 μC. How many more protons than electrons does this piece of plastic have? (
snow_lady [41]

Answer

given,

net charge = +2.00 μC

we know,

1 coulomb charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸electrons

1 micro coulomb  charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸ x 10⁻⁶ electron

                                         = 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

2.00 μC = 2 x 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

              = 1.256 x 10¹³ electrons

since net charge is positive.

The number of protons should be 1.256 x 10¹³ more than electrons.

hence, +2.00 μC have 1.256 x 10¹³ more protons than electrons.

A 1.0 kilogram ball is thrown into the air with an initial velocity of 30m/s. How much kinetic energy does the ball have? (B) ho
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

450 joules ; 450 joules ; 45.9 m

Explanation:

Given that :

Initial Velocity, u = 30m/s

Mass, m = 1 kg

Kinetic Energy of ball (KE) = 0.5mu²

K. E = 0.5 * 1 * 30^2

K.E = 0.5 * 900

K.E = 450 Joules

B.) Potential Energy (P. E)

P. E = mgh

At the highest point, all kinetic energy has would have become potential energy, hence

K. E = P. E = 450 Joules

C) Height of the ball :

From ; P. E = mgh

Where ; g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s² ; h = height

450 = 1 * 9.8 * h

450 = 9.8h

h = 450 / 9.8

h = 45.918

h = 45.9 m

Two balls of unequal mass are hung from two springs that are not identical. The springs stretch the same distance as the two sys
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

b) Springs oscillate with the same frequency,

Explanation:

expression for frequency of vibration of mass hanging from a spring is given as follows

f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \times \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

k is force constant of spring and m is mass vibrating .

In the present case, if mass stretches the spring by x and remains balanced

mg = k x

\frac{k}{m} =\frac{g}{x}

g and x are same  for both cases

\frac{k}{m} will also be same for both cases .

Hence frequency of vibration will also be same for both the balls .

A key falls from a bridge that is 45 m above the water. It falls directly into a model boat, moving with constant velocity, that
guapka [62]

Answer:

4m/s

Explanation:

The motion is in downward direction, and the boat is moving with constant velocity, the position of the boat horizontally is 12m before the key fall.

The height difference "h"= ( y- y°)= 45 m

We can determine the needed time the key requires to reach the water using the expression from Newton's law

h= v(o) + 1/2 at^2

g= acceleration due to gravity= 9.8m/s^2

h= v(o) + 1/2 gt^2 -------------------------eqn*)

V(o)= 0 for the key= initial velocity

h= height that the key falls= 45m

If we substitute the above values into eqn(*) we have

We can make t^2 subject of the formula since v(0)= 0

t^2= h/(1/2 g)

= 45/(1/2× 9.8)

t^2= 45/4.9=9.18

t= √9.18

t=3.03 secs

Since the boat was moving with constant velocity,

Then Velocity= distance/ time

= 12/3.03

Velocity= 4m/s

Hence, the speed of the boat is 4m/s
