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 balloon filled with helium gas has an average density of Q,-0.41 kg/m'. The density of the air is Qa-1.23 kg/m3. The volume of

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

a) $(Qa*g*Vb)-(Qh*Vb*g)=(Qh*Vb*a)\\where \\g=gravity [m/s^2]\\a=acceleration [m/s^2]$

b) a = 19.61[m/s^2]

Explanation:

The total mass of the balloon is:

$massball=densityheli*volumeheli\\\\massball=0.41 [kg/m^3]*0.048[m^3]\\massball=0.01968[kg]\\\\$

The buoyancy force acting on the balloon is:

$Fb=densityair*gravity*volumeball\\Fb=1.23[kg/m^3]*9.81[m/s^2]*0.048[m^3]\\Fb=0.579[N]$

Now we need to make a free body diagram where we can see the forces that are acting over the balloon and determinate the acceleration.

In the attached image we can see the free body diagram and the equation deducted by Newton's second law

Why should it take significantly more energy to move a beam of alpha particles than a beam of beta minus (β–) particles?

a_sh-v [17]

An 'alpha particle' is the same thing as the nucleus of a helium atom ...
a little bundle made of 2 protons and 2 neutrons.

A 'beta' particle is an electron.

The mass of an alpha particle is more than 7,000 times the mass of
an electron, so it certainly takes more energy to get it moving.

A shopper pushes a grocery cart 20.0 m at constant speed on level ground, against a 35.0 n frictional force. he pushes in a dire

alexandr1967 [171]

Work is calculated as the product of Force, Distance, and angular motion. In this case, the work done by gravity is perpendicular to the motion of the cart, so θ = 90°

and W=Fdcosθ

W=35.0 N x 20.0 m x cos90

W=0 J

This means that work done perpendicular to the direction of the motion is always zero.

please help me guys please please please please please please please please please please please please please

seropon [69]

Answer:

1.F = 256 N

2.a = 8 m/s/s

By looking at the given information, you know force, and an acceleration. Therefore you have enough information to use the first formula.

F = ma

256 N = m * 8 m/s/s

m = 256 N/8 m/s/s

m = 32 Kg
