Answer:

Explanation:

Bridge length A B = 36.5 m

weight W = 2.56 x 10⁵ N acting at middle point that is at 18.25 m from either end.

weight of truck W₁ = 5.25 x 10⁴ N  standing at 10.2 m from A .

Let force at A be F₁ and at B be F₂ .

Balancing total upward and downward force

F₁ + F₂ = ( 2.56 + .525 ) x 10⁵ = 3.085 x 10⁵ N

Taking torque of all the forces , for rotational balancing

2.56 x 10⁵ x 18.25 + .525 x 10⁵ x 10.2 = F₂ x 36.5

(46.72 + 5.355 )x 10⁵ = F₂ x 36.5

F₂ = 1.42 x 10⁵ N

F₁ = 1.665 x 10⁵ N

Find the magnitude of acceleration (ft/s^2) a person experiences when he or she is texting and driving 58mph, hits a wall, and c
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

350 ft/s²

Explanation:

First, convert mph to ft/s.

58 mi/hr × (5280 ft/mi) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 85.1 ft/s

Given:

v₀ = 85.1 ft/s

v = 0 ft/s

t = 0.24 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (0 ft/s − 85.1 ft/s) / 0.24 s

a = -354 ft/s²

Rounded to two significant figures, the magnitude of the acceleration is 350 ft/s².

A +0.2 µC charge is in an electric field. What happens if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 µC charge?
AleksandrR [38]

Explanation:

It is known that electric field is responsible for creating electric potential. As a result, it depends only on the electric field and not on the magnitude of charge.

So, when a charge is increased by a factor of 2 then electric potential will remain the same. Since, expression to calculate the electric potential is as follows.

                 U = qV

Since, the electric potential is directly proportional to the charge. Hence, when 0.2 \mu C tends to replaced by 0.4 \mu C then charge is increased by a factor of 2. Hence, the electric potential energy is doubled.

Thus, we can conclude that if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 µC charge then electric potential stays the same, but the electric potential energy doubles.
