Answer:

The cat must stand 0.96 m from the left side of the pivot to keep the seesaw balanced.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the cat, m₁ = 5.2 kg

mass of the tuna, m₂ = 2.5 kg

length of the seesaw, L = 4.0 m

Apply the following approach;

                                                                   

                  x m                      <-------------2m ---------->              

        0------------------------------Δ------------------------------4m

                  ↓                         2m                                 ↓

                 5.2 kg                                                      2.5 kg

Apply the principle of moment; anticlockwise moment = clockwise moment.

5.2(x ) = 2.5(2)

5.2x = 5

x = 5/5.2

x = 0.96 m

Therefore, the cat must stand 0.96 m from the left side of the pivot to keep the seesaw balanced.

1. All the relevant resistors are in series, so the total (or equivalent) resistance is the sum of the resistances of the resistors: 20 Ω + 80 Ω + 50 Ω = 150 Ω [choice A].

2. The ammeter will read the current flowing through this circuit. We can find the ammeter reading using Ohm's law in terms of the electromotive force provided by the battery: I = ℰ/R = (30 V)(150 Ω) = 0.20 A [choice C].

3. The voltmeter will measure the potential drop across the 50 Ω resistor, i.e., the voltage at that resistor. We know from question 2 that the current flowing through the resistor is 0.20 A. So, from Ohm's law, V = IR = (0.20 A)(50 Ω) = 10. V, which will be the voltmeter reading [choice F].

4. Trick question? If the circuit becomes open, then no current will flow. Moreover, even if the voltmeter were kept as element of the circuit, voltmeters generally have a very high resistance (an ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance), so the current moving through the circuit will be negligible if not nil. In any case, the ammeter reading would be 0 A [choice B].
