Answer:

2.21 N

Explanation:

The force in this case is the total mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity. You are not asked for the solution to be in terms of the torque which is the usual way to solve these problems. That's why you are not given where the fulcrum is.

The fulcrum feels F1 + F2 + 34 * 980

F2 = 141.7 * 980 = 138866

F1 = 50.3 * 980 = 49294

Ruler = 34 * 980= 33320

Total Force = 221480 The units here are dynes

I just saw in the middle of the question that g = 9.80

So the answer becomes 221480 / 1000 = 221.48 because we needed kg

And that answer becomes 221.48/100 2.21 because the force of gravity should be 9.8 not 980

The total force exerted on the fulcrum is

How are acceleration and speed related

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Usually, acceleration means the speed is changing, but not always. When an object moves in a circular path at a constant speed, it is still accelerating, because the direction of its velocity is changing.

Please answer this question for me and explain why.

horsena [70]

Answer:

D.None of these

Explanation:

The derivation of acceleration formula:

Let us call the 5kg mass $m_2$ and the 4kg mass $m_1$ . If the tension in the string is $T$ then for the mass $m_2$

(1). $T-m_2g=-m_2a$ <em>(the negative sign on the right side indicates that acceleration is downwards)</em>

And for the mass $m_1$

(2). $T-m_1g =m_1a$ <em> (the acceleration is upwards, hence the positive sign)</em>

Solving for $T$ in the 2nd equation we get:

$T =m_1a+m_1g$ ,

and putting this into the 1st equation we get:

$m_1a+m_1g-m_2g=-m_2a\\\\m_1a+m_2a = m_2g-m_1g\\\\a(m_1+m_2)= (m_2-m_1)g$

$\boxed{a= \dfrac{(m_2-m_1)}{(m_1+m_2)} g}$

Back to the question:

Using the formula for the acceleration we find

$a= \dfrac{(5kg-4kg)}{(5kg+4kg)} g$

$a = \dfrac{g}{9},$

which is the acceleration that none of the given choices offer. Also, the acceleration of the two blocks is the same, because if it weren't, the difference in the instantaneous velocities of the objects would cause the string to break. Therefore, these two reasons make us decide that none of the choices are correct.

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP BEFORE MY TEACHER AND MY MOM KILLES ME PLEASE ASAP

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

As you know, the denser objects have more weight per unit of volume, this will mean that the force that pulls down these objects is a bit larger.

This will mean that the denser objects will always go to the bottom.

This clearly implies that the red liquid, the one with one of the smaller densities, can not be at the bottom.

There are some cases where a liquid with a small density may become a lot denser as the temperature or pressure changes, and in a case like that, we could see the red liquid at the bottom, but for this case, there is no mention of changes in the temperature nor in the pressure, so this can be discarded.

The only thing that makes sense is that the red part at the bottom is the base of the tube, and has nothing to do with the red liquid.

A low resistance light bulb and a high resistance light bulb are connected in parallel with each other. Which bulb is brighter i

sweet [91]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The bulb with low resistance will be brighter.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The brightness of a bulb is a function of both the voltage across the bulb and current flowing through the bulb. The higher the voltage, the higher the current. Hence the brighter the bulb.

Now, according to the question, the bulbs (the high resistance bulb and the low resistance bulb) are connected in parallel with each other. This means that the same voltage passes across them.

Also, we know that according to Ohm's law, the voltage (V) and current (I) through a conductor are related by the following equation;

V = I x R -------------------(i)

Where;

R is the resistance of the conductor.

We can re-write equation (i) as follows;

I = V / R -----------------------(ii)

According to equation (ii), at fixed voltage (V), the current (I) will increase as the resistance (R) decreases.

Now, since the two bulbs have the same voltage, the bulb with the low resistance will allow a larger flow of current than the bulb with high resistance. Therefore, as said earlier that brightness is dependent on voltage and current, the bulb with the low resistance (and having larger current at some voltage) will be brighter than the bulb with the high resistance (having smaller current at same voltage).
