A uniform cubical crate is 0.740 m on each side and weighs 600 N. It rests on the floor with one edge against a very small, fixe

d obstruction. At what least height above the floor must a horizontal force of magnitude 330 N be applied to the crate to tip it?

Answer:

H = 0.673

Explanation:

given,

side of cubical crate = 0.74

weight of the crate = 600 N

magnitude of force = 330 N

the Horizontal distance of its Center of mass

= 0.74/2

= 0.37

Let the required Height be H

By Balancing the Torques, we get

H x 330 N = 0.37 x 600

330 H = 222

H = 0.673

hence, the height above the floor where force is acting is equal to 0.673 m

One mole of magnesium (6 × 1023 atoms) has a mass of 24 grams, as shown in the periodic table on the inside front cover of the t
natka813 [3]

This question involves the concepts of density, volume, and mass.

The approximate diameter of a magnesium atom is "3.55 x 10⁻¹⁰ m".

<h3>STEP 1 (FINDING MASS OF INDIVIDUAL ATOM)</h3>

It is given that:

Mass of one mole = 24 grams

Mass of 6 x 10²³ atoms = 24 grams

Mass of 1 atom = \frac{24\ grams}{6\ x\ 10^{23}\ atoms} = 4 x 10⁻²³ grams

<h3>STEP 2 (FINDING VOLUME OF A SINGLE ATOM)</h3>

\rho = \frac{m}{V}\\\\V=\frac{m}{\rho}

where,

  • \rho = density = 1.7 grams/cm³
  • m = mass of single atom = 4 x 10⁻²³ grams
  • V = volume of single atom = ?

Therefore,

V=\frac{4\ x\ 10^{-23}\ grams}{1.7\ grams/cm^3}

V = 2.35 x 10⁻²³ cm³

<h3>STEP 3 (FINDING DIAMETER OF ATOM)</h3>

The atom is in a spherical shape. Hence, its Volume can be given as follows:

V =\frac{\pi d^3}{6}\\\\d=\sqrt[3]{ \frac{6V}{\pi}}\\\\d=\sqrt[3]{ \frac{6(2.35\ x\ 10^{-23}\ cm^3)}{\pi}}

d = 0.355 x 10⁻⁷ cm = 3.55 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

The chemical symbol for the element calcium is Ca. What would be the symbol representing calcium atoms that have lost two electr
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

ca^{2 + }

Explanation:

In all atoms, the number of protons = number of electrons, as a result the atom is neutral. Losing or gaining electrons will make the atom electrically charged and we call an electrically charged atom an ion.

Ca 2+ would be the symbol because losing two negative electrons makes calcium's nucleus more positive by two protons.

What is the rate of acceleration due to gravity on Earth?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Negative 9.8 meters per second squared

Explanation:

The negative is for the direction (down, towards the center of the earth). Often this can be estimated as -10 m/s^2 to make calculations easier.

The escape speed from the moon is much smaller than from earth. True or False
Lisa [10]

Answer:

True

The escape speed from the Moon is much smaller than from Earth.

Explanation:

The escape speed is defined as:

v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{r}}  (1)

Where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass and r is the radius.

The mass of the Earth is 5.972x10^{24}kg and its radius is 6371000m

Then, replacing those values in equation 1 it is gotten.

v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{(2)(6.67x10^{-11}N.m^{2}/kg^{2})(5.972x10^{24}kg)}{(6371000m)}}  

v_{e} = 11.18m/s

For the case of the Moon:

v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{(2)(6.67x10^{-11}N.m^{2}/kg^{2})(7.347x10^{22}Kg)}{(1737000m)}}  

v_{e} = 2.38m/s

Hence, the escape speed from the Moon is much smaller than from Earth.

Since it has a smaller mass and smaller radius compared to that from the Earth.

Analogies exist between rotational and translational physical quantities. Identify the rotational term analogous to each of the
damaskus [11]

Explanation:

Acceleration. Angular acceleration: Is the rate of change of the angular velocity of a body with respect to time.

Force. Torque: Is also called rotational force, since an applied torque will change the rotational motion of a body.

Mass. Moment of inertia: It is the resistance that opposes a body to rotates.

Work. Work: In a rotational motion, the work is done by the torque.

Translational kinetic energy. Rotational kinetic energy: is the kinetic energy due to the rotational motion of a body.

Linear momentum. Angular momentum: Represents the quantity of rotational motion of a body.

Impulse. Angular impulse: Is the change in angular momentum of a body.
