Answer:

10N

Explanation:

1. Every Action has an equal and opposite reAction.

2. If 10N of force is acted upon an wrench, then the wrench will react with an equal amount of force, but in the opposite direction.

If two children, with masses of 16 kg and 24 kg , sit in seats opposite one another, what is the moment of inertia about the rot

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of one child = 16 kg

Mass of second child = 24 kg

Suppose a playground toy has two seats, each 6.1 kg, attached to very light rods of length r = 1.5 m.

We need to calculate the moment of inertia

Using formula of moment of inertia

$I=I_{1}+I_{2}$

$I=(m+m_{1})\times r^2+(m+m_{2})\times r^2$

m = mass of seat

m₁ =mass of one child

m₂ = mass of second child

r = radius of rod

Put the value into the formula

$I=(16+6.1)\times(1.5)^2+(24+6.1)\times(1.5)^2$

$I=117.45\ kg-m^2$

Hence, The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 5.3 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.1 x 10-8 m. A

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

$2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

Explanation:

We are given that

Surface area of membrane= $5.3\times 10^{-9} m^2$

Thickness of membrane= $1.1\times 10^{-8} m$

Assume that membrane behave like a parallel plate capacitor.

Dielectric constant=5.9

Potential difference between surfaces=85.9 mV

We have to find the charge resides on the outer surface of membrane.

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor is given by

$C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}$

Substitute the values then we get

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor= $\frac{5.9\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 5.3\times 10^{-9}}{1.1\times 10^{-8}}$

$C=0.25\times 10^{-12}F$

V= $85.9 mV=85.9\times 10^{-3}$

$Q=CV$

$Q=0.25\times 10^{-12}\times 85.9\times 10^{3}=2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

Hence, the charge resides on the outer surface= $2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

A car travel with a constant velocity of 20.5m/s for 20seconds what distance does it cover in this time ?

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

410 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 20.5 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 20 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (20.5 m/s) (20 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (20 s)²

Δx = 410 m

Steam enters a one-inlet, two-exit control volume at location (1) at 360°C, 100 bar, with a mass flow rate of 2 kg/s. The inlet

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

The inlet velocity is 21.9 m/s.

The mass flow rate at reach exit is 1.7 kg/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass flow rate = 2 kg/s

Diameter of inlet pipe = 5.2 cm

Fifteen percent of the flow leaves through location (2) and the remainder leaves at (3)

The mass flow rate is

$m_{2}=0.15\times2$

We need to calculate the mass flow rate at reach exit

Using formula of mass

$m_{3}=m_{1}-m_{2}$

$m_{3}=2-0.15\times2$

$m_{3}=1.7\ kg/s$

We need to calculate the inlet velocity

Using formula of velocity

$v=\dfrac{m}{\rho A}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\dfrac{2}{42.868\times\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times(5.2\times10^{-2})^2}$

$v=21.9\ m/s$

Hence, The inlet velocity is 21.9 m/s.

The mass flow rate at reach exit is 1.7 kg/s.
