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

How much heat must be added to make a 5g substance with a specific heat of 2 J/gC that has its temperature go up 10 degrees? Q =
zlopas [31]

Answer:

100 Joule

Explanation:

Amount of heat in agiven body is given by Q = m•C•ΔT

where m is the mass of the body

c is the specific heat capacity of body. It is the amount of heat stored in 1 unit weight of body which raises raises the temperature of body by 1 unit of temperature.

ΔT is the change in the temperature of body

___________________________________________

coming back to problem

m = 5g

C = 2J/gC

since, it is given that temperature of body increases by 10 degrees, thus

ΔT = 10 degrees

Using the formula for heat as given

Q = m•C•ΔT

Q = 5* 2 * 10  Joule= 100 Joule

Thus, 100 joule heat must be added to  a  5g substance with a specific heat of 2 J/gC to raise its temperature go up by 10 degrees.

1 point<br> You throw a ball up in the air with a velocity of 30 m/s. How high does it<br> go?
choli [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

2as=vf^2-Vi^2

vf=30 m/s

vi= 0 m/s

a=g=9.8 m/s^2

s=vf^2-Vi^2/2a

s=(30)²-(0)²/2*9.8

s=900-0/19.6

s=45.9=46 m

Which material is more closely related to the styrofoam? a. heat exchanger b. diffuser c. insulator d. electrical conductor
nirvana33 [79]

The material that is more closely related to the Styrofoam insulator.

Styrofoam is the term that is used for polystyrene foam in a trademark form. It is a petroleum-based plastic.

Keeping something warm includes the stopping of the transfer of heat from one object to another. This is how insulation works.

Styrofoam is an insulator, which means it'll help keep the heat from the environment out of your cooler. However, you'll still need cooling agents (like ice packs) to make the cooler cold in the first place.

Styrofoam is usually made mostly of air, which means it is a poor conductor of heat, but an excellent convector. It traps the air in small pockets, which blocks the flow of heat energy. This reduces both conduction and convection and makes Styrofoam a good insulator.
