Answer:
1. The current will drop to half of its original value.
Explanation:
The problem can be solved by using Ohm's law:
where
V is the voltage across the circuit
R is the resistance of the circuit
I is the current
We can rewrite it as
In this problem, we have:
- the resistance of the circuit remains the same: R' = R
- the voltage is decreased to half of its original value: 
So, the new current will be
so, the current will drop to half of its original value.
Answer:
Distance= 2.3864m
Explanation:
So that the balance is in equilibrium parallel to the floor, we must match the moment each man makes with respect to the pivot point.
In many cases the point of application of force does not coincide with the point of application in the body. In this case the force acts on the object and its structure at a certain distance, by means of an element that transfers that action of this force to the object.
This combination of force applied by the distance to the point of the structure where it is applied is called the moment of force F with respect to the point. The moment will attempt a rotation shift or rotation of the object. The distance from the force to the point of application is called the arm.
Mathematically it is calculated by expression:
M= F×d
The moment caused by the first man is:
M1= 75kg × (9.81m/s²) × 1.75m= 1287.5625 N×m
The moment caused by the second man must be equal to that caused by the first by which:
M2= 1287.5625 N×m= 55kg × (9.81m/s²) × distance ⇒
⇒distance= (1287.5625 N×m)/( (55kg × (9.81m/s²) )= 2.3864m
At this distance from the pivot point, the second should sit down so that the balance is balanced parallel to the ground.
Conductivity is the property of matter in which a substance can transfer heat or electricity
