The illustration in figure below shows a uniform metre rule weighing 30 N pivoted on a wedge placed under the 40 cm mark and car

rying a weight of 70 N hanging 2 from the 10 cm mark. The ruler is balanced horizontally by a weight W hanging from the 100 cm mark. Calculate the value of the weight W.

Answer:

W = 30 N

Explanation:

Applying the summation of torques about the wedge for equilibrium, taking the clockwise direction as negative. Since the ruler is balanced horizontally about the wedge. Therefore, the summation of all torques acting about the wedge must be equal to zero.

(70\ N)(40\ cm - 10\ cm)-(30\ N)(50\ cm-40\ cm)-(W)(100\ cm - 40\ cm) = 0\\W(60\ cm) = (70\ N)(30\ cm)-(30\ N)(10\ cm)\\\\W = \frac{1800\ N.cm}{60\ cm}

<u>W = 30 N</u>

How do the Sun, Earth, and Moon systems interact
Nataly [62]

The sun is the mother star of the solar system, which only emits light to half of the planet, while the other part is always dark.

The sun emits light towards the earth, which dominates all life on earth. The movements of the Moon around the Earth and of the Earth around the Sun are complex. Movements of rotation around their own axes are superimposed on movements of orbital translation. The Earth and the Moon rotate around their own axes: This is rotation.

An airplane has a starting velocity of 300m/s. It then accelerates at a rate of 45m/s2 for a time of 10s. What is it's final vel
Olenka [21]
A = (v - u) / t

a = acceleration
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
t = time

45 = (v - 300) / 10

45 × 10 = v - 300

450 + 300 = v

v = 750 m/s

Hope this helps!

. Consider a fully extended arm that is rotating about the shoulder such that with a shoulder-to-hand length of 30 cm. If the ar
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

13.309 m/s²

Explanation:

Length from shoulder to hand, l = 30 cm = 0.3 m

initial velocity, u = 1 m/s

final velocity, v = 2.5 m/s

time, t = 3 s

Let the tangential acceleration is a.

by using first equation of motion

v = u + at

2.5 = 1 + 3 a

a = 0.5 m/s²

Let the centripetal acceleration is a'.

a' = v'²/l

a' = 2 x 2 / 0.3

a' = 13.3 m/s²

The tangential acceleration and the centripetal acceleration are both perpendicular to each other. So, the net acceleration is given by

A=\sqrt{a^{2}+a'^{2}}

A=\sqrt{0.5^{2}+13.3^{2}}

A = 13.309 m/s²
