Typically a scaffolding has two ropes to support it. One on the left most side while the other one is on the right most side. Based on equilibrium rule, the summation of forces must be 0. The downward force is the weight of person and scaffolding, while the upward force are the tensions on the two ropes, hence:

Weight person + Weight scaffolding = 2 * Tension

500 N + Weight scaffolding = 2 * 400 N

Weight scaffolding = 300 N

A submerged submarine alters its _____ to rise or fall in the water.
Dima020 [189]
Are there any answer choices?
Submarines use <span>buoyancy by filling ballast tanks up with water. When they are filled with water, they are more dense than the surrounding water, so they are able to sink. If they want to rise, they fill these tanks up with air so that the density is less than the water it surrounds. 
Hope this helps! :)</span>

Modern wind turbines generate electricity from wind power. The large, massive blades have a large moment of inertia and carry a
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Each blade is in the form of rod with axis near one end of the rod

Moment of inertia of one blade

= 1/3 x m l²

where m is mass of the blade

l is length of each blade.

Total moment of moment of 3 blades

= 3 x\frac{1}{3}  x m l²

ml²

2 )

Given

m = 5500 kg

l = 45 m

Putting these values we get

moment of inertia of one blade

= 1/3 x 5500 x 45 x 45

= 37.125 x 10⁵ kg.m²

Moment of inertia of 3 blades

= 3 x 37.125 x 10⁵ kg.m²

= 111 .375 x 10⁵ kg.m²

c )

Angular momentum

= I x ω

I is moment of inertia of turbine

ω is angular velocity

ω = 2π f

f is frequency of rotation of blade

d )

I = 111 .375 x 10⁵ kg.m² ( Calculated )

f = 11 rpm ( revolution per minute )

= 11 / 60 revolution per second

ω = 2π f

=  2π  x  11 / 60 rad / s

Angular momentum

= I x ω

111 .375 x 10⁵ kg.m² x  2π  x  11 / 60 rad / s

= 128.23 x 10⁵  kgm² s⁻¹ .
