30 J w=(force)(displacement) so W=(50N)(.6m) which equals 30J

Give an example of an object that has balanced forces acting on it.

Gnesinka [82]

If the forces on an object are balanced (or if there are no forces acting on it), this is what happens:

a stationary object stays still
a moving object continues to move at the same speed and in the same direction

3. How long will it take a ball to reach the ground if it falls from a cliff 25 m tall (starting from rest)? What if the ball we

Nady [450]

Answer:

2.26 s

Explanation:

Let's take down to be positive.

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = 25 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

25 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

25 = 4.9t²

t = 2.26 s

If the ball instead had an initial horizontal velocity of 5 m/s, its initial vertical velocity is still 0 m/s. So the time to fall is still 2.26 s.

Find the moments of inertia Ix, Iy, I0 for a lamina that occupies the part of the disk x2 y2 ≤ 36 in the first quadrant if the d

Tasya [4]

Answer:

I(x) = 1444×k × ${\pi}$

I(y) = 1444×k × ${\pi}$

I(o) = 3888×k × ${\pi}$

Explanation:

Given data

function = x^2 + y^2 ≤ 36

function = x^2 + y^2 ≤ 6^2

to find out

the moments of inertia Ix, Iy, Io

solution

first we consider the polar coordinate (a,θ)

and polar is directly proportional to a²

so p = k × a²

so that

x = a cosθ

y = a sinθ

dA = adθda

I(x) = ∫y²pdA

take limit 0 to 6 for a and o to $\pi /2$ for θ

I(x) = $\int_{0}^{6}\int_{0}^{\pi/2}$ y²p dA

I(x) = $\int_{0}^{6}\int_{0}^{\pi/2}$ (a sinθ)²(k × a²) adθda

I(x) = k $\int_{0}^{6}a^(5)$ da × $\int_{0}^{\pi/2}$ (sin²θ)dθ

I(x) = k $\int_{0}^{6}a^(5)$ da × $\int_{0}^{\pi/2}$ (1-cos2θ)/2 dθ

I(x) = k $({r}^{6}/6)^(5)_0$ × ${θ/2 - sin2θ/4}^{\pi /2}_0$

I(x) = k × $({6}^{6}/6)$ × ( ${\pi /4} - sin\pi /4)$

I(x) = k × $({6}^{5})$ × ${\pi /4}$

I(x) = 1444×k × ${\pi}$ .....................1

and we can say I(x) = I(y) by the symmetry rule

and here I(o) will be I(x) + I(y) i.e

I(o) = 2 × 1444×k × ${\pi}$

I(o) = 3888×k × ${\pi}$ ......................2

Which term describes the number of joules used per second by a circuit?

jasenka [17]

Answer:

B) Power

Explanation:

The power is defined by the following equation:

P = W / t

where:

W = work = Force * Distance = [Newton] * [meter]

t = time = seconds

The units for work are give en Newton per second, which is equal to Joules

And for power the unit used commonly is Watts, therefore:

Watts = (Joule/second)
