Explanation:

The direction of the force of gravity through the body is downward, towards the centre of the earth and through the COG. This line of gravity is important to understand and visualise when determining a person's ability to successfully maintain Balance.

Guyz... Its my first question in this app... Pls do answer​
Basile [38]

Answer:

1.414

Explanation:

Snell's law states:

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where n is the index of refraction and θ is the angle of incidence (relative to the normal).

The index of refraction of air is approximately 1.  So:

1 sin 45° = n sin 30°

n = sin 45° / sin 30°

n = 1.414

Round as needed.

Two waiters are trying to get through a single door of a kitchen. One pushes on one side of a door 0.567 m from the hinge with a
NISA [10]

Answer:

275.5 N

Explanation:

F_{1} = Force on one side of the door by first waiter = 257 N

F_{2} = Force on other side of the door by second waiter

r_{1} = distance of first force by first waiter from hinge = 0.567 m

r_{2} = distance of second force by second waiter from hinge = 0.529 m

Since the door does not move. hence the door is in equilibrium

Using equilibrium of torque by force applied by each waiter

r_{1} F_{1} = r_{2} F_{2} \\(0.567) (257) = (0.529) F_{2}\\F_{2} = 275.5 N

If you have 80g of a radioactive substance whose half life is 2 days, how long will it take for the substance to decay to the po
Ber [7]

Answer:

6 days.

Explanation:

From radioactivity, The expression for half life is given as,

R/R' = 2⁽ᵃ/ᵇ)................... Equation 1

Where R = original mass of the radioactive substance, R' = Remaining mass of the radioactive substance after decay, a = Total time taken to decay, b = half life.

Given: R = 80 g, R' = 10 g, b = 2 days.

Substitute into equation 1

80/10 = 2⁽ᵃ/²⁾

8 = 2⁽ᵃ/²⁾

2³ = 2⁽ᵃ/²)

Equating the base and solving for a

3 = a/2

a = 2×3

a = 6 days.
