A 1 kg ball is hung at the end of a rod 1 m long. If the system balances at a point on the rod one third of the distance from th

Answer:

2 kg

Explanation:

Assuming the rod's mass is uniformly distributed, the center of mass is at half the length.

Sum of the moments at the balance point:

-(Mg)(L/3) + (mg)(L/2 − L/3) = 0

(Mg)(L/3) = (mg)(L/2 − L/3)

(Mg)(L/3) = (mg)(L/6)

2M = m

M = 1 kg, so m = 2 kg.

The mass of the rod is 2 kg.

A 32.5 g cube of aluminum initially at 45.8 °C is submerged into 105.3 g of water at 15.4 °C. What is the final temperature of b
lakkis [162]

Answer:

T = 17.26 ^oC

Explanation:

At thermal equilibrium we have heat given by aluminium must be equal to the heat absorbed by the water

so we will have

Q_1 = Q_2

m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2

so we will have

32.5(900)(45.8 - T) = 105.3(4186)(T - 15.4)

so we have

(45.8 - T) = 15.1(T - 15.4)

so we have

16.1 T = 277.87

T = 17.26 ^oC

lesantik [10]

Answer:

35870474.30504 m

Explanation:

r = Distance from the surface

T = Time period = 24 h

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

m = Mass of the Earth =  5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

Radius of Earth = 6.38\times 10^6\ m

The gravitational force will balance the centripetal force

\dfrac{GMm}{R^2}=m\dfrac{v^2}{R}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}

T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}}

From Kepler's law we have relation

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2r^3}{GM}\\\Rightarrow r^3=\dfrac{T^2GM}{4\pi^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\left(\dfrac{(24\times 3600)^2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{4\pi^2}\right)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=42250474.30504\ m

Distance from the center of the Earth would be

42250474.30504-6.38\times 10^6=\mathbf{35870474.30504\ m}
