As per the question the mass of the boy is 50 kg.
The boy sits on a chair.
We are asked to calculate the force exerted by the boy on the chair at sea level.
The force exerted by boy on the chair while sitting on it is nothing else except the force of gravity of earth i.e the weight of the body .The direction of that force is vertically downward.
At sea level the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2
Hence the weight of the boy [m is the mass of the body]
we have m = 50 kg.
Hence w = 50 kg ×9.8 m/s^2
=490 N kg m/s^2
= 490 N
Here newton [N] is the unit of force.
Answer:
D) the second at the doorknob
Explanation:
The torque exerted by a force is given by:
where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation
is the angle between the direction of the force and d
In this problem, we have:
- Two forces of equal magnitude F
- Both forces are perpendicular to the door, so
- The first force is exerted at the midpoint of the door, while the 2nd force is applied at the doorknob. This means that d is the larger for the 2nd force
--> therefore, the 2nd force exerts a greater torque
