Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, while an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an external force acts upon it. This law appears in basketball when the player is shooting the ball. When the player is holding the ball, the ball is at rest but when a player shoots the ball, they use force to throw the ball in the hoop.
Answer:
0.54m
Explanation:
Step one:
given data
length of seesaw= 3m
mass of man m1= 85kg
weight = mg
W1= 85*10= 850N
mass of daughter m2= 35kg
W2= 35*10= 350N
distance from the center= (1.5-0.2)= 1.3m
Step two:
we know that the sum of clockwise moment equals the anticlockwise moment
let the distance the must sit to balance the system be x
taking moment about the center of the system
350*1.3=850*x
455=850x
divide both sides by 850
x=455/850
x=0.54
Hence the man must sit 0.54m from the right to balance the system
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the vertical height by which it descends be h . Let it acquire velocity of v .
1/2 mv² = mgh
v² = 2gh
As it leaves the surface of sphere , reaction force of surface R = 0 , so
centripetal force = mg cosθ where θ is the angular displacement from the vertex .
mv² / r = mg cosθ
(m/r )x 2gh = mg cosθ
2h / r = cosθ
cosθ = (r-h) / r
2h / r = r-h / r
2h = r-h
3h = r
h = r / 3
Electric field = potential difference

Answer:
a) x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3
b) x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m
Explanation:
Note: The position of the horse is x = 2m. There is a typing error in the question. Otherwise, The solution to cubic equation holds a negative value of time t.
Given:
- v(t) = 10 + 2*t^2 (radar gun)
- x*(t) = 10 + 5t^2 + 3t^3 (our coordinate)
Find:
-The position x of horse as a function of time t in radar system.
-The position of the horse at x = 2m in our coordinate system
Solution:
- The position of horse according to radar gun:
v(t) = dx / dt = 10 + 2*t^2
- Separate variables:
dx = (10 + 2*t^2).dt
- Integrate over interval x = 0 @ t= 0
x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3
- time @ x = 2 :
2 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3
0 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3 + 2
- solve for t:
t = 0.1875 s
- Evaluate x* at t = 0.1875 s
x*(0.1875) = 10 + 5(0.1875)^2 + 3(0.1875)^3
x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m
