Answer:

a. The moment of the 4 N force is 16 N·m clockwise

b. The moment of the 6 N force is 12 N·m anticlockwise

Explanation:

In the figure, we have;

The distance from the point 'O', to the 6 N force = 2 m

The position of the 6 N force relative to the point 'O' = To the left of 'O'

The distance from the point 'O', to the 4 N force = 4 m

The position of the 4 N force relative to the point 'O' = To the right of 'O'

a. The moment of a force about a point, M = The force, F × The perpendicular distance of the force from the point

a. The moment of the 4 N force = 4 N × 4 m = 16 N·m clockwise

b. The moment of the 6 N force = 6 N × 2 m = 12 N·m anticlockwise.

A cube of metal has a mass of 11 grams and a volume of 1 cm . When fully submerged in water this metal cube hanging from an accu
Anarel [89]

Answer:

0.098 N

Explanation:

From the question,

Spring scale reading = W-U............... Equation 1

Where W = weight of the cube, U = upthrust.

W = mg

Where m =  mass of the cube, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 11 g = 0.011 kg, g = 9.8 m/s².

W = 0.011(9.8)

W = 0.1078 N.

From Archimedes principle,

Upthrust = weight of water displaced.

U = (Density of water×volume of metal cube)×acceleration due to gravity.

U = (D×V)g

Given: D = 1000 kg/m², V = 1 cm³ = (1/1000000) = 1×10⁻⁶ m³, g - 9.8 m/s²

U = 1000(9.8)(10⁻⁶)

U = 0.0098 N.

Substitute the value of W and U into equation 1

Reading of the spring scale = 0.1078-0.0098

Reading of the spring scale = 0.098 N

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Frequency is <u>the number of waves</u> that move past a point during a specific amount of time. Frequency is measured in <u>Hertz</u>, and is classified as high, medium, or low. Frequency is interpreted as the <u>pitch</u> of a sound. Intensity refers to the <u>loudness</u> of a sound and is measured in <u>decibels</u>. Louder sounds <u>increase</u> the rate of nerve signals relayed to the brain.

What do the different colors in a line spectrum represent? why are the spectra for each element unique?
Lana71 [14]
They typically represents different wavelengths of element due to its energy emission in the form of visible light. When an electron of that particular element move from a higher energy level down to a lower energy level, it gives off energy in the form of photon emission. Atom of a certain element has a unique electron arrangement thus it can considered that particular element's spectrum is unique.
