Answer:
x = 0.6034 m
Explanation:
Given
L = 5 m
Wplank = 225 N
Wman = 522 N
d = 1.1 m
x = ?
We have to take sum of torques about the right support point. If the board is just about to tip, the normal force from the left support will be going to zero. So the only torques come from the weight of the plank and the weight of the man.
∑τ = 0 ⇒ τ₁ + τ₂ = 0
Torque come from the weight of the plank = τ₁
Torque come from the weight of the man = τ₂
⇒ τ₁ = + (5 - 1.1)*(225/5)*((5 - 1.1)/2) - (1.1)*(225/5)*((1.1)/2) = 315 N-m (counterclockwise)
⇒ τ₂ = Wman*x = 522 N*x (clockwise)
then
τ₁ + τ₂ = (315 N-m) + (- 522 N*x) = 0
⇒ x = 0.6034 m
Answer:
The correct option is;
c. 22.6
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The hypotenuse of the vector = 32
The angle of the vector = 45°
Therefore, the vector component in the y-axis is given as follows;

Substituting the values from the question gives;

The vector component in the y-axis,
, is approximately 22.6.

Concept being tested: Efficiency of machines
Therefore we need to know what is the efficiency of a machine
- Efficiency of a machine is the ratio of work output of machine to the work input expressed as a percentage.
Efficiency = (Work output ÷ Work input) × 100%
- Therefore, if the work input is equal to the work output then the efficiency of the machine will be 100%.
- Most machines are not 100% efficient due to loss of energy in form of heat due to friction of the moving parts of the machine.
