The person in the middle weighs 500 n, and the tension on the rope is 400 n. what is the weight of the scaffolding?

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

What is the opposition to the flow of AC produced by a magnetic field with generated back voltage (EMF) called?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer and Explanation :

The opposition of the flow of alternating current produced by a magnetic field is called inductive reactance it is denoted by X_L, The value of the inductive reactance depends on the value of inductance. The good thing about inductive reactance is that it is not responsible for the power loss as  resistance is responsible for the power loss

A helicopter’s velocity increases from 35 m/s to 70 m/s in 10 seconds. What is the acceleration of this helicopter?
Alenkinab [10]
3.5 meters per second second is the acceleration because we know that acceleration is change in velocity over time and the change is velocity here is 35 and the time is 10 so we can simply divide 35 by 10 which is 3.5 m/s squared

A student has made the statement that the electric flux through one half of a Gaussian surface is always equal and opposite to t
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

E.true only when no charge is enclosed within the Gaussian surface.

Explanation:

Because Gauss’s law states that the net flux of an electric field in a closed surface is directly proportional to the enclosed electric charge.

The doppler effect states that the motion of any object can ________
pshichka [43]

Answer:

shift the wavelength of spectral lines

Explanation:

The Doppler effect is commonly used in the field of astronomy to study the motion of astronomical objects such as a star, planets, and distant galaxies. This results in the changing of wavelength and shifting of the spectral lines, due to the relative and continuous motion of the receiver and the source. This is known as the red-shifting, where the lights in the spectrum move towards the highest wavelength, i.e towards the red light. This Doppler effect signifies that the distance between the distant galaxies and earth increases with the increasing recessional velocity.

At a constant pressure, the volume of a gas doubles when the temperature in kelvins doubles. This is a statement of which gas la
posledela

Answer:

Boyle’s law and,Charles’s law

Explanation:

For a fixed mass of gas at constant pressure, the volume is directly proportional to the kelvin temperature. That means, for example, that if you double the kelvin temperature from, say to 300 K to 600 K, at constant pressure, the volume of a fixed mass of the gas will double as well.
