Most likely answer is d. It would be half the size since the poliraztion is greater due to perpendicular bisect.

A motorcycle of mass 100 kilograms slowly rolls off the edge of a cliff and falls for three seconds before reaching the bottom o
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

C) 3,000 kg m/s

Explanation:

We can consider the horizontal velocity of the motorcycle to be zero, since it rolls off the edge of the cliff very slowly. So, we only need to find the vertical velocity at the time of the impact with the ground.

The vertical velocity of the motorcycle at time t is given by (free-fall motion):

v(t)=v_0 -gt

where

v_0=0 is the initial vertical velocity (zero, since the motorcycle is not moving)

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

Since the motorcycle hits the ground after t = 3 seconds, we have

v(3 s)=0-(9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)=-29.4 m/s

And since we know its mass, m=100 kg, we can find its momentum:

p=mv=(100 kg)(-29.4 m/s)=-2940 kg m/s \cdot -3000 kg m/s

and the negative sign simply means downward direction.

The 10-kg uniform rod is pinned at end
Anton [14]
Supposing that the spring is un stretched when θ = 0, and has a toughness of k = 60 N/m.It seems that the spring has a roller support on the left end. This would make the spring force direction always to the left 
Sum moments about the pivot to zero. 
10.0(9.81)[(2sinθ)/2] + 50 - 60(2sinθ)[2cosθ] = 0 98.1sinθ + 50 - (120)2sinθcosθ = 0 98.1sinθ + 50 - (120)sin(2θ) = 0 
by iterative answer we discover that 
θ ≈ 0.465 radians 
θ ≈ 26.6º

Explain how a step-down transformer makes electricity safe for use in homes.
Savatey [412]

Answer:

it lowers the voltage in homes

Explanation:

this is due to safety reasons as a human cant survive power line voltages which are between 150k and 760k and if you plugged anything short of a piece of 1 inch thick wire not counting insulation it would immediately start smoking and burn the cable.

A mass m is attached to an ideal massless spring with spring constant k. In experiment 1 the mass oscillates with amplitude a, a
Trava [24]

Time period remains the same in both the experiment as change in amplitude does not affect time period.

What are the factors on which time period depends in SHM?

Time period is given by:

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

where,

T = time period

m = mass

k = spring constant

In a straightforward harmonic motion, we see from the preceding formula that the time period depends only on the object's mass and spring constant (SHM). The time period will adjust to any variations in the object's mass or the spring constant.

What is Spring Constant?

A spring's "spring constant" is a property that quantifies the relationship between the force acting on the spring and the displacement it produces. In other words, it characterises a spring's stiffness and the extent of its range of motion.
