Bob and Sally sit on a 4 m long see-saw that has its fulcrum smack in the center of the board. If 50 kg Sally is sitting at one

end of the plank, where should 70 kg Bob sit on the other side relative to the fulcrum so the net Torque is zero?

Answer:

1.43m

Explanation:

Given data

m1= 50kg

m2=70kg

We are told that Sally m1= 50 sat at one end which is 2m from the center

Hence, the summation of clockwise moment = summation of anticlockwise moment

See the attached image for your reference

50*2= 70*x

100= 70x

x= 100/70

x=1.43m

Hence the mass m2 will be at the 1.43m mark for the net torque to be zero

1. An object (m = 500 g) with an initial speed of 0.2 m/s collides with another object (m = 1.5 kg) which was at rest before the
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 )

We shall apply conservation of momentum law to solve the problem.

mv = ( M +m) V , m and M are masses of small and large object , v is the velocity of small object before collision and V is the velocity of both the objects together after collision .

.5 x .2 = (1.5 + .5)V

V = .05 m /s

2 ) We shall use formula for velocity of object after elastic collision as follows

v₁ = \frac{(m_1-m_2)}{(m_1+m_2)} u_1+\frac{2m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}

m₁ and m₂ are masses of first and second object u₁ and u₂ are their initial velocity and v₁ and v₂ are their final velocity.

Putting the values

= \frac{(200-1000)}{(1000+200)} \times 1 +\frac{2 \times1000\times0}{(1000+200)}

= - .66 m /s

Since the sign is negative so it will be in opposite direction .

A baseball leaves a bat with a horizontal velocity of 20.0 m/s. When it has left the bat for a time of 0.250 s (Assume air resis
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The distance is 5 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal velocity = 20.0 m/s

Time t = 0.250 s

We need to calculate the horizontal distance

The distance traveled by the baseball with horizontal velocity in time t is given by

Using formula for horizontal distance

d = v\times t

d = 20.0\times0.250

d=5\ m

Hence, The distance is 5 m.

You are measuring the volume of a chemical beaker how would u take the measurment?

I think its d  because lifting it would make the chemical swish around and that will make it so you cant get the right measurement. hope this helps :)
