The 4 m board's center of mass is 2 m so the pivot point is somewhere between Tasha and 2 m (if you draw a picture it's going to make this clearer)
The mass of Tasha * her distance from the pivot point = the board's mass * distance from the pivot point.
<span> Let d1 be the distance Tasha is from the pivot point. The board's center of mass from the pivot point is 2 m - d1
</span><span> 20 kg * d1 = 10 kg * (2m - d1)
</span><span> Solve for d1, you should get 2/3 of a m for the distance Tasha is from the pivot or support point. The center of mass for the board is 1 1/3 m from the support point. </span>
The percentage error in calculated value of the refractive index of acrylic block is calculated using the formula: (true value - calculated value/true value) × 100%.
<h3>What is refractive index of a refracting medium?</h3>
The refractive index of a medium is the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence on the medium and the sine of the angle of refraction.
- Refractive index = sin i/sin r
where;
- i is the angle of incidence
- r is angle of refraction.
The refractive index of a medium increases with density of the medium.
To determine the percentage error in determining the refractive index of a medium, the following formula is used:
- Percent error = error/true value × 100%
Therefore, the percentage error in calculated value of the refractive index of acrylic block is the ratio of the error and true value multiplied by 100%.

Assume the snow is uniform, and horizontal.
Given:
coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.10 = muK
weight of sled = 48 N
weight of rider = 660 N
normal force on of sled with rider = 48+660 N = 708 N = N
Force required to maintain a uniform speed
= coefficient of kinetic friction * normal force
= muK * N
= 0.10 * 708 N
=70.8 N
Note: it takes more than 70.8 N to start the sled in motion, because static friction is in general greater than kinetic friction.
The principle of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be changed from one form to another. The law of inertia on the other hand states that a body remains at a state of rest or motion on a straight line unless compelled by an external force. So i think that the answer is B, which is FALSE because the question is more related to the law of inertia(Newtons first law) than to the law of conservation of energy. Hope i helped.
