A small branch is wedged under a 200 kg rock and rests on a smaller object. The small object that creates a pivot point is calle

d the fulcrum. The smaller object is 2.0 m from the large rock and the branch is 12.0 m long. If the mass of the branch is negligible, what force must be exerted on the free end to just barely lift the rock

Answer:

F = 326.7 N

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 200 kg

distance d = 2 m

length L = 12 m

solution

we know force exerted by the weight of the rock that is

W = m × g   ..............1

W = 200 × 9.8

W = 1960 N

and

equilibrium the sum  of the moment about that is

∑Mf = F(cos∅) L - W (cos∅) d  = 0

here ∅ is very small so cos∅ L = L and cos∅ d = D

so F × L - W × d = 0       .................2

put here value

F × 12 - 1960 × 2 = 0

solve it we get

F = 326.7 N

What is the meaning of technology
slamgirl [31]
The exact definition of technology is: The application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry.

The way I would put it is that technology isn’t just electronics, smartphones, and flying cars. Technology is information that people reveal and figure out and this is why it advances. You hear all the time the “advances in technology” and it’s a term that has grown rapidly. It helps businesses to progress, it’s taught people, it’s in some ways beneficial to people’s lives. It has many meanings and really that is technology simply put.

An airplane flies eastward and always accelerates at a constant rate. at one position along its path it has a velocity of 26.3 m
galina1969 [7]
We will use the formula / equation to determined the time.

Distance = ½ * (vi + vf) * t 
48100 = ½ * (26.3 + 41.9) * t 
t = 48100 ÷ 34.1 = 1410.557185 seconds 

We will use the formula / equation to determined the acceleration. 

vf = vi + a * t 
41.9 = 26.3 + a * 1410.557185 
a = (41.9 – 26.3) ÷ 1410.557185 = 0.011059459 m/s^2 

We will use the formula / equation to determined the acceleration.

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2 * a * d 
41.9^1 = 26.3^2 + 2 * a * 48100 
a = (41.9^2 – 26.3^2) ÷ 96200 = 0. 011059459 m/s^2 
Since both answers are the same, I believe the acceleration is correct.
