Answer:
Explanation:
From he question we are told that
The first mass is
The second mass is
From the question we can see that at equilibrium the moment about the point where the string holding the bar (where are hanged ) is attached is zero
Therefore we can say that
Making x the subject of the formula
Looking at the diagram we can see that the tension T on the string holding the bar where are hanged is as a result of the masses (
)
Also at equilibrium the moment about the point where the string holding the bar (where () and
are hanged ) is attached is zero
So basically
Making subject
Answer:
Explanation:
We need the power equation here:
P = W/t where W is work and is defined as
W = F*displacement.
Force is a measure in Newtons, which is also weight. We have the mass of the piano, but we need to find the weight:
w = mg so
w = 166(9.8) so
w = 1600N, rounded to the correct number of sig dig. We use that now in the power equation:
and isolating the unknown:
so
t = 5.3 seconds
