Answer:
The answer to your question is given below
Explanation:
Since both object A and B were dropped from the same height and the air resistance is negligible, both object A and B will get to the ground at the same time.
From the question, we were told that object A falls through a distance to dA at time t and object B falls through a distance of dB at time 2t.
Remember, both objects must get to the ground at the same time..!
Let the time taken for both objects to get to the ground be t.
Time A = Time B = t
But B falls through time 2t
Therefore,
Time A = Time B = 2t
Height = 1/2gt^2
For A:
Time = 2t
dA = 1/2 x g x (2t)^2
dA = 1/2g x 4t^2
For B
Time = t
dB = 1/2 x g x t^2
Equating dA and dB
dA = dB
1/2g x 4t^2 = 1/2 x g x t^2
Cancel out 1/2, g and t^2
4 = 1
4dA = dB
Divide both side by 4
dA = 1/4 dB
Answer: It is the product of the (force)multiplied by the (perpendicular) distance from the line of action of the force to the pivot
