To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to equilibrium, for this specific case, through the sum of torques.

If the distance in which the 600lb are applied is 6in, we will have to add the unknown Force sum, at a distance of 27in - 6in will be equivalent to that required to move the object. So,



So, Force that must be applied at the long end in order to lift a 600lb object to the short end is 171.42lb
Shale, sandstone, and limestone are the most commoc types of sedimentary rocks. They are formed by the most common mineral that is found on or near the surface of the Earth
Answer:
<em>500Joules</em>
Explanation:
Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²
m is the mass of the wood
v is the velocity
Given
Mass = 10kg
Velocity v = 10m/s
Substitute into the formula and get KE
KE = 1/2 * 10 * 10²
KE = 1/2 * 1000
KE = 500Joules
<em>Hence the kinetic energy of the wood during delivery is 500Joules</em>
The formula for kinetic energy is
KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed)² .
How you measure the object's mass and speed is up to you.
You'd need different methods for different objects, and in some
cases, you'd need quite a bit of ingenuity.
