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

What magnitude charge creates a 1.0 n/c electric field at a point 1.0 m away?
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

1.1\cdot 10^{-10}C

Explanation:

The electric field produced by a single point charge is given by:

E=k\frac{q}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q is the charge

r is the distance from the charge

In this problem, we have

E = 1.0 N/C (magnitude of the electric field)

r = 1.0 m (distance from the charge)

Solving the equation for q, we find the charge:

q=\frac{Er^2}{k}=\frac{(1.0 N/c)(1.0 m)^2}{9\cdot 10^9 Nm^2c^{-2}}=1.1\cdot 10^{-10}C

A person is lifting a heavy box using a lever. What is the purpose of the lever in this situation?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

to reduce the <em>force</em> needed to lift the box and <em>change</em> the direction of the force

Explanation:

1. "A lever consists of a rigid bar that is able to pivot at one point. This point of rotation is known as the fulcrum. A force is applied at some point away from the fulcrum (typically called the effort)."

By this definition, we know that force is needed to lift an object using a lever.

2.<u> "When the input and output forces are on opposite sides of the fulcrum, </u><u>the lever changes the direction of the applied force.</u> This occurs only with first-class levers. When both the input and output forces are on the same side of the fulcrum, the direction of the applied force does not change"

For example, on a sew saw, if a force is applied on one end, you on the other side/end would go up, meaning <u>a change in direction</u>.

3. Lastly, we know <u><em>a lever is typically used to reduce work</em></u>, in other words, the force needed to move something.

Basically, if we were to put a lever into an equation:

reduced force + change in direction = lever

(<em>the expection</em>) <u>unless load and force are on the same side</u>, there will be <u>no change in direction. </u>

For example, if you and your friend sit on the same side of a sew saw, the sew saw would not go up or down, meaning no change in direction.

So if not stated otherwise you can assume the load and force are on opposite sides. The purpose of a lever in that situation would be to reduce the force needed to lift the box and change the direction of the force.

*While reading my explanation, it may be helpful to look up a diagram containing a lever, with a load, fulcrum, and applied force.

The value of 1.0004 to the power 1 by 2 using Binomial approximation is​
IgorLugansk [536]

Given:

The given value is (1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}.

To find:

The value of the given expression by using the Binomial approximation.

Explanation:

We have,

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}

It can be written as:

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=(1+0.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=1+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.0004      [\because (1+x)^n=1+nx]

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=1+0.0002

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=1.0002

Therefore, the approximate value of the given expression is 1.0002.

Why is the earth's magnetic field important for us?
Nataly_w [17]
It protects us from the magnetic/electrical radiation that comes from the sun. High radiation periods coincide with solar storms.
