Answer:
D. Nothing will happen; the seesaw will still be balanced.
Explanation:
D. Nothing will happen; the seesaw will still be balanced. Since both toruqes or momentums respect to the center have changed in the same amount (one-half their original distance) the seesaw will remain balanced, if the children change distance in a different amount then it will be out of balance

Answer:
V=203 ft/s
Explanation:
answer is available in word document named "attach 1" due to some technical error in maths equation. please find the attached document
When you squish the spring, you put some energy into it, and after the cord
burns and they go boing in opposite directions, that energy that you stored
in the spring is what gives the blocks their kinetic energy.
But linear momentum still has to be conserved. It was zero while they were
tied together and nothing was moving, so it has to be zero after they both
take off.
Momentum = (mass) x (velocity)
After the launch, the 5.5-kg moves to the right at 6.8 m/s,
so its momentum is
(5.5 x 6.8) = 37.4 kg-m/s to the right.
In order for the total momentum to be zero, the other block has to
carry the same amount of momentum in the opposite direction.
M x V = (6 x speed) = 37.4 kg-m/s to the left.
Divide each side by 6 : Speed = 37.4 / 6 =<em> 6.2333... m/s left</em>
(That number is (6 and 7/30) m/s .)
Answer:
196J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of skateboard = 1kg
Height off the ground = 20m
Unknown:
Potential energy = ?
Solution:
The potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body above the ground.
It is mathematically expressed as:
Potential energy = mass x acceleration due gravity x height
Potential energy = 1 x 9.8 x 20 = 196J
