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

lesantik [10]

Answer:

The pole stores elastic potential energy when the pole is bent because its shape is change from its natural shape and it will want to go back to its original form, just like a spring or stretched elastic material.

A puddle of water has a thin film of gasoline floating on it. A beam of light is shining perpendicular on the film. If the wavel
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts of Destructive and constructive interference. The constructive interference in tin film is given by

2t = (m+\frac{1}{2})\frac{\lambda}{n}

Where,

t = thickness

\lambda=Wavelenght

m= is an integer

n= film/refractive index

We use this equaton because phase change is only present for gasoline air interface, but not at the gasoline-water interface. <em>The minimum t only would be when the value of m=0 then</em>

2nt = \frac{\lambda}{2}

t = \frac{560nm}{4*1-4}

t = 100nm

Therefore the correct answer is D. The minimum thickness of the film to see ab right reflection is 100nm

Arada [10]
If you are under a tree, they kind of act like lightning rods, so stay away from trees, so roll in dat grass. Fun Fact: Lightning comes from the ground more than it comes from the sky, its like when you rub a blanket on your head, some lil' lightnings come from your head while a little come from the blanket, its the same with grass and clouds only, 10000 volts stronger and deadly.
