Newton's first law of motion is connected with inertia :)
Explanation:
a)
Sum of moments = 0 (Equilibrium)
T . cos (Q)*L = m*g*L/2



b) If the String is shorter the Q increases; hence, Cos Q decreases which in turn increases Tension in the string due to inverse relationship!
c)

Answer:
Magnifying glass and a Petri dish.
Explanation:
The weight of anything is (mass) x (gravity in the place where the thing is).
Gravity on Earth is about 9.8 newtons per kilogram, so on Earth,
the weight of the book is
(2.06 kg) x (9.8 N/kg) = <em>20.19 newtons</em> .
Another way to get around it is:
On Earth, 1 kg of mass weighs about 2.205 pounds, so on earth,
the weight of the book is
(2.06 kg) x (2.205 pounds/kg) = <em>4.54 pounds </em>.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of first car
M1= 328kg
The car is moving in positive direction of x axis with velocity
U1 = 19.1m/s
Velocity of second car
U2 = 13m/s, in the same direction as the first car..
Mass of second car
M2 = 790kg
Velocity of second car after collision
V2 = 15.1 m/s
Velocity of first car after collision
V1 =?
This is an elastic collision,
And using the conservation of momentum principle
Momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision
P(before) = P(after)
M1•U1 + M2•U2 = M1•V1 + M2•V2
328 × 19.1 + 790 × 13 = 328 × V1 + 790 × 15.1
16534.8 = 328•V1 + 11929
328•V1 = 16534.8—11929
328•V1 = 4605.8
V1 = 4605.8/328
V1 = 14.04 m/s
The velocity of the first car after collision is 14.04 m/s
