Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

In general, these 3rd class levers are very inefficient. Because the force distance is smaller than the load distance, you need to pull upward with more force that the weight of the load. So whatever the load is, the force is going to be much greater.

The distances are always measured to the pivot unless you are asked something specific otherwise.

Givens

F = ?

weight = 6N

Force Distance = F*d = 0.5 m

Weight Distance =W*d1 = 2 m

Formula

F*Fd = W*Wd

Solution

F*0.5 = 6 * 2            Divide by 0.5

F = 12/0.5

F = 24 N upwards

Are the objects described here in static equilibrium, dynamic equilibrium, or not equilibrium at all? Explain.
Alexandra [31]
Let us examine the given situations one at a time.

Case a. A 200-pound barbell is held over your head.
The barbell is in static equilibrium because it is not moving.
Answer: STATIC EQUILIBRIUM

Case b. A girder is being lifted at a constant speed by a crane.
The girder is moving, but not accelerating. It is in dynamic equilibrium.
Answer: DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM

Case c: A jet plane has reached its cruising speed at an altitude.
The plane is moving at cruising speed, but not accelerating. It is in dynamic equilibrium.
Answer: DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM

Case d: A box in the back of a truck doesn't slide as the truck stops.
The box does not slide because the frictional force between the box and the floor of the truck balances out the inertial force. The box is in static equilibrium.
Answer: STATIC EQUILIBRIUM

Are Constellations based on the magnitude of stars.
Nikolay [14]
Constellations are based off of many Greek and Roman fables. Many of their gods and beliefs are pictured in the stars, which is where we get most of our constellations. Hope this helps!

Flashlight has resistance of 2.4 what voltage is applied by the batteries if the current is 2.5a
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

6 voltage is applied by the batteries.

Explanation:

To solve this sort of problem involving current, resistance and voltage, we use the relation:<em> </em><em>Voltage</em><em>= </em><em>Current x Resistance</em>.

From the problem, the following have been given:

Resistance= 2.4 ohms.

Current= 2.5 amps.

Required: Voltage?

Fix the values of current and resistance into the relation:

Voltage= <em>2.5 x 2.4</em>

            =6 volts.
