A bag of marbles is hanging motionless on a spring scale. What prevents the bag from falling?​

Physics

Tanya [424]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The vector sum of all forces acting on it is zero, its at equilibrium.

Explanation:

The bag of marbles hanging on a spring scale applies its weight downwards, which was counterbalanced by the reaction from the spring scale (obeying the Newton's third law of motion). And since no external forces are applied to the system, thus the equilibrium of the system.

If the weight of the bag is greater than the reaction from the spring scale, the scale breaks and the system would not be balanced.

A car started from a rest and accelerated at 9.54 m/s2 for 6.5 seconds. How much distance was covered by the car?
ElenaW [278]

Explanation:

S =ut + 1/2at^2

S = 0×6.5 + (1/2 × 9.54) × 6.5^2

S =0 + 4.77 ×42.25

S=201.5m

If two micro coulomb of charge is flowing in a circuit for 5 minutes. What is the amount of current in the circuit?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

6.67×10¯⁹ A

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Quantity of electricity (Q) = 2 μC

Time (t) = 5 mins

Current (I) =?

Next, we shall convert 2 μC to C. This can be obtained as follow:

1 μC = 1×10¯⁶ C

Therefore,

2 μC = 2 μC × 1×10¯⁶ C / 1 μC

2 μC = 2×10¯⁶ C

Next, we shall convert 5 mins to seconds. This can be obtained as follow:

1 min = 60 secs

Therefore,

5 min = 5 min × 60 sec / 1 min

5 mins = 300 s

Finally, we shall determine the current in the circuit. This can be obtained as follow:

Quantity of electricity (Q) = 2×10¯⁶ C

Time (t) = 300 s

Current (I) =?

Q = It

2×10¯⁶ = I × 300

Divide both side by 300

I = 2×10¯⁶ / 300

I = 6.67×10¯⁹ A

Thus, the current in the circuit is 6.67×10¯⁹ A

➷ After 10,000 years the mass will be:

1,000 / 2 = 500

After 20,000 years the mass will be:

500/2 = 250

As you can see, the correct answer would be A. 20,000 years
