Answer:

4.535 N.m

Explanation:

To solve this question, we're going to use the formula for moment of inertia

I = mL²/12

Where

I = moment of inertia

m = mass of the ladder, 7.98 kg

L = length of the ladder, 4.15 m

On solving we have

I = 7.98 * (4.15)² / 12

I = (7.98 * 17.2225) / 12

I = 137.44 / 12

I = 11.45 kg·m²

That is the moment of inertia about the center.

Using this moment of inertia, we multiply it by the angular acceleration to get the needed torque. So that

τ = 11.453 kg·m² * 0.395 rad/s²

τ = 4.535 N·m

What is the frequency of light with a wavelength of 7.9 x 10^-9 m? ( the speed of light is 3.00 x 10^8)
nlexa [21]
Using the formula v=f times lambada
then v=the speed of light.
and f=what’s we’re looking for
and lambada=the wavelength.

so then you sub what you have (v and lambada) in the formula.
then multiply the frequency(f) by the given wavelength and then solve for f

You should not go into the left side of the roadway when within 100 feet of the crossing. Moreover, you should also turn on your turn signal when within 100 of a turn. These precautions prevent accidents as it makes clear to other drivers what your intentions are and drivers making turns are not endangered.

A 120 kg box is on the verge of slipping down an inclined plane with an angle of inclination of 47º. What is the coefficient of
Alex_Xolod [135]

Given :

A 120 kg box is on the verge of slipping down an inclined plane with an angle of inclination of 47º.

To Find :

The coefficient of static friction between the box and the plane.

Solution :

Vertical component of force :

mg\ sin\ \theta =  120\times 10 \times sin\ 47^\circ{}=877.62 \ N

Horizontal component of force(Normal reaction) :

mg\ cos\ \theta =  120\times 10 \times cos\ 47^\circ{}=818.40 \ N

Since, box is on the verge of slipping :

mg\ sin\ \theta= \mu(mg \ cos\ \theta)\\\\\mu = tan \ \theta\\\\\mu = tan\ 47^o\\\\\mu = 1.07

Therefore, the coefficient of static friction between the box and the plane is 1.07.

Hence, this is the required solution.
