Someone is trying to balance a (110cm) plank with certain forces.

Physics

Mashutka [201]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a. i. 30 Nm ii. This moment is a clockwise positive moment.

b. i. 15 Nm ii, This moment is a counter-clockwise negative moment.

c. i. The plank will not balance. ii. The plank would tip up.

d. 150 N

Explanation:

a) Calculate the moment of the 60N force (about O), then name its type.

i. Calculate the moment of the 60N force (about O)

Since moment = Force × perpendicular distance from point of moment ,

M = Fd

Since F = 60 N and d = 50 cm = 0.5 m

M = 60 N × 0.5 m = 30 Nm

ii. Then name its type.

This moment is a clockwise positive moment.

b) Calculate the moment of the 30N force (about O), then name its type.

i. Calculate the moment of the 30N force (about O),

Since moment = Force × perpendicular distance from point of moment ,

M' = F'd'

Since F' = 30 N and d' = 50 cm = 0.5 m

M' = 30 N × 0.5 m = 15 Nm

ii. Then name its type.

This moment is a counter-clockwise negative moment.

c) Will the plank balance? If not, which way will it tip?

i. Will the plank balance?

The plank will balance if the net moment on it is zero

So net moment, M' = positive moment - negative moment = M - M' = 30 Nm   - 15 Nm = 15 Nm

Since the net moment on the plank is M" = 15 Nm ≠ 0,<u>the plank will not balance.</u>

ii Which way will it tip?

The plank would tip in the direction of the greater moment since the net moment is positive. <u>This moment tilts the plank in a clockwise direction, so the plank would tip up.</u>

d) What extra force would be needed at (B) to balance the plank?

The extra force must balance the net moment,

So M" = F"d" where F" = force and d" = distance of force from O = 10 cm = 0.10 m

F" = M"/d"

= 15 Nm/0.10 m

= 150 N

2. Above right: The four positions of the thrown ball with no gravity are
padilas [110]

The characteristics of the projectile launch allows to find the results for the questions about the movement of the ball are:

  • In the attached we see the vertical speed decreases with height and the curve is of the parabolic type.
  • In the movement is several dimensions, each one is independent of the others, the movement in the x axis does not affect the movement in the y axis.

Kinematics studies the motion of bodies looking for relationships between position, velocity and acceleration. In the case of vertical and projectiles launch  the acceleration on the vertical axis is the acceleration of gravity directed downward.

In the attachment we can see the position of the ball for two distances in the case of projectile launching.

We can see that the speed of the ball decreases with height according to the relation

          y = go t - ½ g t²

Where y is the height, g is the initial vertical velocity, g is the acceleration of gravity and t is time.

In all movements in various dimensions we assume that each movement in an . axis is independent

In the case of projectile launching, on the vertical axis there is an acceleration of gravity and on the horizontal axis there is no acceleration, the only parameter that this gives the two movements is the time, which is a scalar.

In conclusion, using the characteristics of the projectile launch, we can find the results for the questions about the movement of the ball are:  

  • In the movement is several dimensions, each one is independent of the others, the movement in the x axis does not affect the movement in the y axis.
  • In the attached we see the vertical speed decreases with height and the curve is of the parabolic type.

The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The permittivity of rubber is  \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  magnitude of the point charge is  q_1 =  70 \ nC  =  70 *10^{-9} \  C

      The diameter of the rubber shell is  d = 32 \ cm  =  0.32 \ m

       The Electric field inside the rubber shell is  E =  2500 \ N/ C

The radius of the rubber is  mathematically evaluated as

              r =  \frac{d}{2} =  \frac{0.32}{2}  =  0.16 \ m

Generally the electric field for a point  is in an insulator(rubber) is mathematically represented as

         E =  \frac{Q}{ \epsilon }  *  \frac{1}{4 *  \pi r^2}

Where \epsilon is the permittivity of rubber

    =>     E  *  \epsilon  *  4 * \pi *  r^2 =  Q

   =>      \epsilon  =  \frac{Q}{E *  4 *  \pi *  r^2}

substituting values

            \epsilon  =  \frac{70 *10^{-9}}{2500 *  4 *  3.142 *  (0.16)^2}

            \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}

Approximately how much air is in a column 1-cm2 in cross section that extends from sea level to the top of the atmosphere?
laila [671]

Approximately 101 N air is in a column 1-cm2 in cross-section that extends from sea level to the top of the atmosphere

The basic level for determining height and depth on Earth is the sea level. The ocean's surface tends to seek the same level since it is one continuous body of water. However, the sea level is never fully level due to winds, currents, river discharges, and changes in gravity and temperature.

At the equator, the radius of the Earth at sea level is 6378.137 km (3963.191 mi). At the poles, it is 6,356.752 km (3,949.903 km), and on average, it is 6,371.001 km (3,958.756 mi). The elevation of the shoreline—the boundary between the ocean and the land—is referred to as sea level. Land that is higher than this altitude is above sea level, and land that is lower is below sea level.
