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.

What evidence do we have that Earth has a magnetic field surrounding the planet?
Ber [7]
A compass works the way it does because Earth has a magnetic field that looks a lot like the one in a magnet. The Earth's field is completely invisible, but it can be felt by a compass needle on the Earth's surface, and it reaches thousands of miles out into space.

A 61.0-kg person jumps from rest off a 10.0-m-high tower straight down into the water. Neglect air resistance. She comes to rest
9966 [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this case, law of conservation of energy will be implemented. It states that "the energy of the system remains conserved until or unless some external force act on it. Energy of the system may went through the conversion process like kinetic energy into potential and potential into kinetic energy.But their total always remain the same in conserved systems."

Given data:

Height of tower = 10.0 m

Depth of the pool = 3.00 cm

Mass of person = 61.0 kg

Solution:

Initial energy = Final energy

U_{i} =  (K.E) + U_{f}

As the person was at height initially so it has the potential energy only.

mg(h_{1} +h_{2}) = K.E + mgh_{2}

K.E = mgh_{1}

K.E = (61.0)(9.8)(10)\\K.E = 5978 J

Lets find out the magnitude of the force that the water is exerting on the diver.

W =ΔK.E

F.h_{2} = 5978\\

F = \frac{5978}{3}

F = 1992.67 N

A lighthouse is located on a small island, 3 km away from the nearest point on a straight shoreline, and its light makes four re
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The beam of light is moving at the peed of:

\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{80\pi}{3} km/min

Given:

Distance from the isalnd, d = 3 km

No. of revolutions per minute, n = 4

Solution:

Angular velocity, \omega = \frac{d\theta'}{dt} = 2\pi n = 2\pi \times 4 = 8\pi    (1)

Now, in the right angle in the given fig.:

tan\theta' = \frac{y}{3}

Now, differentiating both the sides w.r.t t:

\frac{dtan\theta'}{dt} = \frac{dy}{3dt}

Applying chain rule:

\frac{dtan\theta'}{d\theta'}.\frac{d\theta'}{dt} = \frac{dy}{3dt}

sec^{2}\theta'\frac{d\theta'}{dt} = \frac{dy}{3dt} = (1 + tan^{2}\theta')\frac{d\theta'}{dt}

Now, using tan\theta = \frac{1}{m} and y = 1 in the above eqn, we get:

(1 + (\frac{1}{3})^{2})\frac{d\theta'}{dt} = \frac{dy}{3dt}

Also, using eqn (1),

8\pi\frac{10}{9})\theta' = \frac{dy}{3dt}

\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{80\pi}{3}

The wavelength of light is given by the velocity divided by the frequency. the velocity of blue light is 300,000,000 m/sec, and
s2008m [1.1K]
<span>Electromagnetic radiation are represented in waves. Each type of wave has a certain shape and length. The distance between two peaks in a wave is called the wavelength. It is indirectly related to the frequency which is the number of wave that pass per unit of time. Wavelength is equal to the speed of light divided by the frequency. We calculate as follows:

Wavelength = </span>300,000,000 m/sec / <span>650,000,000,000,000 per second
Wavelength = 4.62x10^-4 m</span>
