Answer:

We cannot place three forces of 5g, 6g, and 12g in equilibrium.

Explanation:

Equilibrium means their sum must be zero.

Here the forces are 5g, 6g, and 12g.

For number of forces to be in equilibrium the magnitude of largest vector should be less than sum of the magnitude of other vectors.

Here

Magnitude of largest force = 12 g

Sum of magnitudes of other forces = 5g + 6g = 11g

Magnitude of largest force > Sum of magnitudes of other forces

So this forces cannot form equilibrium.

We cannot place three forces of 5g, 6g, and 12g in equilibrium.

True or false mechanical waves need a medium through which to transport energy

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:True

Explanation: The mechanical waves need a medium through which to transport energy because the perturbation travels inside of the medium so it needs molecules that connect elastically the displacement of the wave. For example the sound mainly uses the air molecules to transport the energy also the sound can be traveled in solid materials like metal rods.

A pair of narrow slits, separated by 1.8 mm, is illuminated by a monochromatic light source. Light waves arrive at the two slits

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

750 nm

Explanation:

$d$ = separation of the slits = 1.8 mm = 0.0018 m

λ = wavelength of monochromatic light

$D$ = screen distance = 4.8 m

$y$ = position of first bright fringe = $\frac{1cm}{5 fringe} = \frac{0.01}{5} = 0.002 m$

$n$ = order = 1

Position of first bright fringe is given as

$y = \frac{nD\lambda }{d}$

$0.002 = \frac{(1)(4.8)\lambda }{0.0018}$

λ = 7.5 x 10⁻⁷ m

λ = 750 nm

Find its moment of inertia about an axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through the midpoint of the line connecting its

antoniya [11.8K]

A) Moment of inertia about an axis passing through the point where the two segments meet : $I_A=\frac{1}{12} M L^2$

B) Moment of inertia passing through the point where the midpoint of the line connects to its two ends: $I x=\frac{1}{3} M L^2$

What is Moment of inertia?

The term "moment of inertia" refers to a physical quantity that quantifies a body's resistance to having its speed of rotation along an axis changed by the application of a torque (turning force). The axis might be internal or exterior, fixed or not.

A) The moment of inertia about an axis passing through the point where the two segments meet is $I_A=\frac{1}{12} M L^2$ given that the rod is bent at the center and distance from all the points to the axis remains the same, the moment of inertia about the center will remain the same.

B) Determine the moment of inertia about an axis passing through the point midpoint of the line which connects the two ends

First step: determine the distance between the ends ( d )

After applying Pythagoras theorem $\mathrm{d}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} L$

Next step : determine distance between the two axis $(\mathrm{x})$

After applying Pythagoras theorem

$\mathrm{x}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} L$$$

Final step : Calculate the value of $\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{x}}$

applying Parallel Axis Theorem

$I_x=I_8+M x^2$

$\begin{aligned}& =\frac{1}{12} M L^2+\frac{1}{4} M L^2 \\& \therefore \quad I x=\frac{1}{3} M L^2 \\&\end{aligned}$

Hence we can conclude that Moment of inertia about an axis passing through the point where the two segments meet: $I_A=\frac{1}{12} M L^2$ , Moment of inertia passing through the point where the midpoint of the line connects its two ends: $I x=\frac{1}{3} M L^2$
