Two students are balancing on a 10m seesaw. The seesaw is designed so that each side of the seesaw is 5m long. The student on th

e left weighs 60kg and is sitting three meters away from the fulcrum at the center. The student on the right weighs 45kg. The seesaw is parallel to the ground. The mass of the board is evenly distributed so that its center of mass is over the fulcrum. What distance from the center should the student on the right be if they want the seesaw to stay parallel to the ground? 
a. 4m
b. 5m
c. 2m
d. 3m

Answer:

x = 4 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the rotational equilibrium relationship, where we place zero at the turning point and counterclockwise rotations we will consider positive

as it indicates that the bar is in equilibrium, its center of mass coincides with the turning point, so the distance is zero and does not create torque on the system

        ∑τ  = 0

        W 3 - w x = 0

        x = 3W / w

        x = 3 Mg / mg

        x = 3 M / m

let's calculate

       x = 3 60/45

       x = 4 m

In 1911, Ernest Rutherford and his assistants Geiger and Marsden conducted an experiment in which they scattered alpha particles
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of mechanical energy

kinetic energy of alpha particle is converted into electric potential energy.

1/2 mv² = k q₁q₂/d , d is closest distance

d = 2kq₁q₂ / mv²

= 2 x 9 x 10⁹ x 79e x 2e / 4mv²

= 1422 x2x (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)² x 10⁹ /4x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x (1.5 x 10⁷)²

= 3640.32 x 10⁻²⁹ /2x 3.7575 x 10⁻¹³

= 484.4 x 10⁻¹⁶

=48.4  x 10⁻¹⁵ m

What is larger a Atom or a Molecule?
Kipish [7]
I believe an Atom is a very powerful source, the basic unit of a chemical element. An atom is a source of nuclear energy.


But a molecule on the other hand isn't so different.
a group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction.
I hope that helps, have a fantastic day!

Explain why the shortening velocity became slower as the load became heavier in this experiment. how well did the results compar
valkas [14]
<span>The shortening velocity refers to the speed of the contraction from the muscle shortening while lifting a load. Maximal shortening velocity is only attained with a minimal load. With a light load, the shortening velocity is at its Maximal shortening velocity. When the weight is heavy, the speed in which the muscle lifts the weight decreases in speed at a slower velocity.</span>

A capacitor of capacitance C has charge Q and stored energy is U if the charge is increased to 2Q then energy will be A)4U B)2U
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

2u

Explanation:

2u

W = Vq

q = CV

W = V.CV

W = CV²

W/C = V²

V = √(W/C)

√(W1/C1) = √(W2/C2)

√(u/c) = √(x/2c)

x = 2u
