The correct answer is option 4, 16.

Explanation

Each division on the number line represents 4 units. The point X is located 4 divisions above 0, the origin. On this particular number line, 4 divisions represents $4\times 4=16$ units. This means that the point X is located at $y=16$ on the number line.

The correct answer is the 4th option, whose value is 16.

As per the question the diagram given is a vertical line.

We are asked to calculate the position of X.

Here the vertical line is divided into many segments.

As per the diagram, it is obvious that the points marked at different positions are separated by four units from each other i.e the distance between two successive marks is 4 units.

The point X is situated at four marks away from 0.

Hence the position of X will be= 4×4 units

= 16 units

Hence the correct answer of this question is D.

Answer:

The moment of inertia is $I =1.0697 \ kg m^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The frequency is $f = 0.460 \ Hz$

The mass of the pendulum is $m = 2.40 \ kg$

The location of the pivot from the center is $d = 0.380 \ m$

Generally the period of the simple harmonic motion is mathematically represented as

$T = 2 \pi * \sqrt{ \frac{I}{ m * g * d } }$

Where I is the moment of inertia about the pivot point , so making I the subject of the formula it

=> $I = [ \frac{T}{2 \pi } ]^2 * m* g * d$

But the period of this simple harmonic motion can also be represented mathematically as

$T = \frac{1}{f}$

substituting values

$T = \frac{1}{0.460}$

$T = 2.174 \ s$

$I = [ \frac{2.174}{2 * 3.142 } ]^2 * 2.40* 9.8 * 0.380$

$I =1.0697 \ kg m^2$

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The driver was not telling the truth because it is not possible for a car to hit another car from behind and generate a force to the sides that deflects it from its path.

Explanation:

First, we analyze the driver's statement.

The driver when arriving at the curve, is collided from behind by another car and deviates from his path and crashes into a tree. For the car to go to the tree there must be a force towards the tree.

The net force that causes the car to deviate must be formed by the sum of the motion vector of the first car plus the force that is directed towards the tree.

Here we verify that a car hitting from behind will not generate a force to the sides, but will generate a force in the same direction that the car moves, forward.
