Answer:
The mother has to sit 2.17 ft from the center on the other side of the seesaw.
Explanation:
We are trying to find the sum of torques given by the weights of mother and daughter to be zero.
If the torque of the daughter on one side of the pivoting point is given by:
5.5 ft x 63.5 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb
we need that the absolute value of the torque exerted by the mom (160.9 lb) to be the same in magnitude (and of course opposite direction). So we assume that "d" is the distance at which the mother locates to make this torque equal in magnitude to her daughter's torque:
d x 160.9 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb
d = 2.17 ft
My guess would be choice D
According to Newton's second law, the force applied to an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

where F is the magnitude of the force, m is the mass of the object and a its acceleration.
In this problem, the object is the insect, with mass

. The acceleration of the insect is

, therefore we can calculate the force exerted by the car on the insect:

How do we find the force exerted by the insect on the car?
According to Newton's third law (known as action-reaction law), when an object A exerts a force on an object B, object B also exerts a force equal and opposite on object A. Therefore, the force exerted by the insect on the car is equal to the force exerted by the car on the object, so it is 0.01 N.

Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
a) We know that;
v = λf
Where;
λ = wavelength of the wave
f = frequency of the wave
v = velocity of the wave
So;
T = 2 * 2.10 s = 4.2 s
Hence f = 1/4.2 s
f = 0.24 Hz
The wavelength = 6.5 m
Hence;
v = 6.5 m * 0.24 Hz
v = 1.56 m/s
b)The amplitude of the wave is;
A = 0.600 m/2 = 0.300 m
c) Since the wave speed does not depend on the amplitude of the wave then the answer in (a) above remains the same
Where d = 0.30 m
A = 0.30 m/2 = 0.15 m
