Answer:

point of support on which a lever rotates.

Explanation:

The fulcrum is the point of support on which a lever rotates. Fulcrum is a pivotal part of simple machines.

The fulcrum provides the platform for a lever to torque.

The force that opposes motion by the applied force is termed the frictional force.
Friction is a force that opposes motion.
The stored energy of an object is its potential energy.
The potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.
The distance an object moves when doing work is termed its displacement.

The weakest type of friction that occurs between solid surfaces is _____ friction

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Static, sliding, and rolling friction occur between solid surfaces. Static friction is strongest, followed by sliding friction, and then rolling friction, which is weakest. Fluid friction occurs in fluids, which are liquids or gases.

How many lenses with different focal lengths can be obtained by combining two surfaces whose radii of curvature are 4.00 cm and

Dovator [93]

Answer:

The lenses with different focal length are four.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of curvature R₁= 4

Radius of curvature R₂ = 8

We know ,

Refractive index of glass = 1.6

When, R₁= 4, R₂ = 8

We need to calculate the focal length of the lens

Using formula of focal length

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(n-1)(\dfrac{1}{R_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{R_{2}})$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{8})$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{9}{40}$

$f=4.44\ cm$

When , R₁= -4, R₂ = 8

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{-4}+\dfrac{1}{8})$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{3}{40}$

$f=-13.33\ cm$

When , R₁= 4, R₂ = -8

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{8})$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{3}{40}$

$f=13.33\ cm$

When , R₁= -4, R₂ = -8

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{-4}-\dfrac{1}{8})$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{9}{40}$

$f=-4.44\ cm$

Hence, The lenses with different focal length are four.

Convert time from 12-hour to 24-hour clock.

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

4:28

Explanation:

4:28am

a 12 hour clock continues going up after 12 (1:00pm=13:00). minutes stay the same. 12:00pm=00:00. this shows 4:28am, so you count 4 after 00:00.

What is the mass, in grams, of a pure iron cube that has a volume of 3.70cm cubed?

Arlecino [84]

To determine the amount in grams of the iron, we need data on the density of iron. From literature, it has a value of <span>p=7.9 g/cm3. We simply multiply the volume to the density. We do as follows:

mass = 3.70 (7.9) = 29.23 g Fe

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

At what wavelength would a star radiate the greatest amount of energy if the star has a surface temperature of 60,000 K?

kompoz [17]

Answer:

$\lambda=4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m$

Explanation:

We have,

The surface temperature of the star is 60,000 K

It is required to find the wavelength of a star that radiated greatest amount of energy. Wein's displacement law gives the relation between wavelength and temperature such that :

$\lambda T=2.89\times 10^{-3}$

Here,

$\lambda$ = wavelength

$\lambda=\dfrac{2.89\times 10^{-3}}{60000}\\\\\lambda=4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m$

So, the wavelength of the star is $4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m$ .
