If an exit sign is hanging from the ceiling by three chains each of which has a tension of 15N what is the weight of the sign

Physics

kvasek [131]3 years ago
3 0
The weight is 45 N, because the three chains hold the sign, and each contributes 15 N.

Notice that the mass would be the weight/acceleration of gravity, m = 45/9.8 kg. But they ask the weight (force, so Newtons)

How does this diagram demonstrate the law of superposition?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

well, as u can tell the top layer will always be the youngest layer aka the newest layer. The farther u go down the older the layers get. So the deeper u dig the farther back in time we see.

What is the distance from axis about which a uniform, balsa-wood sphere will have the same moment of inertia as does a thin-wall
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

D_{s} ≈ 2.1 R

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of the bodies can be calculated by the equation

     I = ∫ r² dm

For bodies with symmetry this tabulated, the moment of inertia of the center of mass

Sphere               Is_{cm} = 2/5 M R²

Spherical shell   Ic_{cm} = 2/3 M R²

The parallel axes theorem allows us to calculate the moment of inertia with respect to different axes, without knowing the moment of inertia of the center of mass

    I = I_{cm} + M D²

Where M is the mass of the body and D is the distance from the center of mass to the axis of rotation

Let's start with the spherical shell, axis is along a diameter

     D = 2R

    Ic = Ic_{cm} + M D²

    Ic = 2/3 MR² + M (2R)²

    Ic = M R² (2/3 + 4)

    Ic = 14/3 M R²

The sphere

    Is =Is_{cm} + M [D_{s}²

    Is = Ic

    2/5 MR² + M D_{s}² = 14/3 MR²

    D_{s}² = R² (14/3 - 2/5)

    D_{s} = √ (R² (64/15)

    D_{s} = 2,066 R

What happens to the current supplied by the battery when you add an identical bulb in parallel to the original bulb?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

b. The current stays the same.

Explanation:

In the case given current is supplied by the battery to a bulb . Here, we should know that bulb also apply resistance to the flow of current .

Now, when an identical bulb is connected in parallel to the original bulb .

Therefore, both the resistance( bulb) are in parallel.

We know, when two resistance are in parallel , current through them is same and voltage is divided between them.

Therefore, in this case current stays same in the original bulb.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why should a glass slide and a coverslip be held by the edges?
AleksAgata [21]
THIS IS NOT THE EXACT ANSWER BUT IT MIGHT HELP
The cover slips serves two purposes: (1) it protects the microscope's objective lens from contacting the specimen, and (2) it creates an even thickness (in wet mounts) for viewing.
