The force is still 1 pound.

The TORQUE around the pivot is (force) x (distance from the pivot) = 1 foot-pound. (B)

The picture on the left represents the reactants in the equation and the picture on the right represents the products. Does this

V125BC [204]

The answer is , n<span>o, because there are not the same number of molecules in the product side as in the reactant side.

The law of conservation of matter says that the system remains the same throughout. The number of atoms, mass and energy must stay constant. If you look at your figure there are more white atoms on the left side than the right, this means that there was a loss and this should not be the case.

If you mass 35kg on earth what will your mass be on the moon where gravity is 1/6 that of earths. PLZZZZ HElP NEED ASAP

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Mass will be same on moon as on Earth but weight will be one-sixth of Earth.

Explanation:

Mass of a body doesn't depend on gravity. Mass is a constant quantity. So, mass on moon will be same as mass on Earth.

But, the weight of a body depends on gravity as weight is given as:

$\textrm{Weight}=\textrm{mass}\times \textrm{acceleration due to gravity}$

Therefore, if $g$ is acceleration due to gravity on Earth, then weight on Earth is, $W_{E}=mg$

Now, gravity on moon is one-sixth of Earth. So, $g_{moon}=\frac{1}{6}g$

Therefore, weight of the body on moon is, $W_{moon}=mg_{moon}=m\times \frac{1}{6}g=\frac{1}{6}mg=\frac{1}{6}W_{E}$

Therefore, a body has same mass both on moon and Earth but weight on moon is one-sixth of the weight on Earth.

Which statement about a pair of units is true?

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

option A is correct as 1 yard consist of 0.9144 meter which is less than one meter

Explanation:

from the above given statement option 1 is true

1 yard is equal to 0.9144 meter

while

1 mile is equal to 1.60934 km

1 foot is equal to 30.48 centimeter

1 inch is equal to 2.54 centimeter

therefore all these units [left one] are larger than their respective conversion [ right one unit]

therefore option A is correct as 1 yard consist of 0.9144 meter which is less than one meter
