Answer:

The force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A' is 240 N

Explanation:

The given parameters for the pole AB are;

The length of the pole, l = 10.0 m

The weight of the pole, W = 600 N ↓

The distance of the center of gravity of the pole from the side 'A' = 4.0 m

Let 'F_A' represent the force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A' and let a force applied in the upwards direction be positive

For equilibrium, the sum of moment about the point 'B' = 0, therefore, taking moment about 'B', we have

F_A × 10.0 m - W × 4.0 m = 0

∴ F_A × 10.0 m = W × 4.0 m = 600 N × 4.0 m

F_A × 10.0 m = 600 N × 4.0 m

∴  F_A = 600 N × 4.0 m/(10.0 m) = 240 N

The force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A', F_A = 240 N.

Which atomic number is the threshold value below which fusion may occur?
Luda [366]

Answer:

The atomic number 26(iron) is the threshold value below which the fusion might occur.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more nuclei are combined to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.

Energy released in a fusion reaction is because of a key feature of nuclear matter called the binding energy which is a measure of the efficiency with which its constituent nucleons are bound together.

As we go up in atomic number, the energy released per nuclei goes down until it hits a minimum which is for atomic number 26 (iron) and fusion is not possible.

How is motion affected by change in mass of an object and forces applied?
densk [106]
Newtons second law says that the acceleration of an object (produced by a net force) is directly proportional to that magnitude of the net force. E.g. F = ma
where F is the net force of an object, m is mass and a is acceleration.
For example, if an object had a large mass, there would have to be more force in order to move it than if it was lighter.  
In a linear motion, if you pushed two objects, one slightly larger than the other, with the same force, the acceleration of the smaller object would be bigger than the larger one. So the motion (change in position over time), of the larger object would be seen as lesser than the smaller one (in a situation where both forces are equal).
