(a) The stick is supported by a sharp point at the middle. On the left side, a weight of 100 g is suspended at 40 cm from the mi

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

20cm

Explanation:

Hello!

remember that the condition for a body to be at rest is that the sum of its moments and its forces be zero,

To solve this problem you must draw the free body diagram of the stick (attached image) and sum up moments at point 0 (where the sharp is located), which results in the following equation

(100g)(40cm)=x(200g)

$X=\frac{(100)(40)}{(200)} =20cm$

Resonance structures have _______ connectivity of atoms and _______ distribution of electrons.

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Resonance structures have same connectivity of atoms and differ only in distribution of electrons.

Explanation:

Atoms supply the electrons from their outer electron shells. Electrons are found free in nature and are grouped around the nucleus into shells. Electrons can be further explained as negatively charged subatomic particle. Electrons have properties of both particles and waves and they can be moved around.

Resonance structures are imaginary structures and not all of them are created equally. Resonance structures have two or more possible electron structures, and, the resonance structures for a particular substance sometimes have different energy and stability. When resonance structures are identical, they are important descriptions of the molecule. The position of the atoms is the same in the various resonance structures of a compound, but the electrons are distributed differently around the structure.

The 45-g arrow is launched so that it hits and embeds in a 1.40 kg block. The block hangs from strings. After the arrow joins th

worty [1.4K]

Question: How fast was the arrow moving before it joined the block?

Answer:

The arrow was moving at 15.9 m/s.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy says that the kinetic energy of the arrow must be converted into the potential energy of the block and arrow after it they join:

$\dfrac{1}{2}m_av^2 = (m_b+m_a)\Delta Hg$

where $m_a$ is the mass of the arrow, $m_b$ is the mass of the block, $\Delta H$ of the change in height of the block after the collision, and $v$ is the velocity of the arrow before it hit the block.
