When the system is in equilibrium, the sum of the moment about a point is

zero.

Force \ shown  \ by \  the  \ scale \  under \  the \  right  \ pillar \ is \ F = \dfrac{(m_B - 2 \cdot m_D) \cdot g}{2}

Reasons:

Length of the beam = l

Mass of the beam = m_B

Location \ of \  the \  two \  pillars = \dfrac{l}{3}  \  from  \  either  \  end

Mass of the duck = m_D

Required:

Force shown by the scale under the right pillar.

Solution:

The location of the duck = On the left end of the beam

When the system is in equilibrium, we have; ∑M = 0

Taking moment about the left pillar, we get;

Clockwise moment = m_D \times g \times  \dfrac{l}{3} + F \times \dfrac{l}{3}

Anticlockwise moment = m_B \times g \times  \dfrac{l}{6}

At equilibrium, clockwise moment = Anticlockwise moment

Therefore;

m_D \times g \times  \dfrac{l}{3} + F \times \dfrac{l}{3} = m_B \times g \times  \dfrac{l}{6}

F \times \dfrac{l}{3} = m_B \times g \times  \dfrac{l}{6} - m_D \times g \times  \dfrac{l}{3}

F = \dfrac{m_B \times g \times  \dfrac{l}{6} - m_D \times g \times  \dfrac{l}{3}}{\dfrac{l}{3} }  = \dfrac{(m_B - 2 \cdot m_D) \cdot g}{2}

Force \ shown  \ by \  the  \ scale \  under \  the \  right  \ pillar, \  F = \dfrac{(m_B - 2 \cdot m_D) \cdot g}{2}

A 4400 W motor is used to do work. If the motor is used for 200 s, how much work could it do? (Power: P = W/t)
guajiro [1.7K]
So if p=w/t
then 4400=(w)(200)
so you would multiply 4440•200 and get 880,000

Phosphorous reacts with chlorine gas to produce phosphorous pentachloride. Calculate the mass of product produced when 25.0 g of
MariettaO [177]

Answer : The mass of product produced if the reaction occurred with a 70.5 percent yield will be, 20.67 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of P = 25 g

Mass of Cl_2 = 25 g

Molar mass of P = 30.97 g/mole

Molar mass of Cl_2 = 71 g/mole

Molar mass of PCl_5 = 208.24 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of P and Cl_2.

\text{Moles of }P=\frac{\text{Mass of }P}{\text{Molar mass of }P}=\frac{25g}{30.97g/mole}=0.807moles

\text{Moles of }Cl_2=\frac{\text{Mass of }Cl_2}{\text{Molar mass of }Cl_2}=\frac{25g}{71g/mole}=0.352moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2P+5Cl_2\rightarrow 2PCl_5

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 5 moles of Cl_2 react with 2 moles of P

So, 0.352 moles of Cl_2 react with \frac{2}{5}\times 0.352=0.1408 moles of P

That means, in the given balanced reaction, Cl_2 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of products and P is an excess reagent because the given moles are more than the required moles.

Now we have to calculate the moles of PCl_5.

As, 5 moles of Cl_2 react with 2 moles of PCl_5

So, 0.352 moles of Cl_2 react with \frac{2}{5}\times 0.352=0.1408 moles of PCl_5

Now we have to calculate the mass of PCl_5.

\text{Mass of }PCl_5=\text{Moles of }PCl_5\times \text{Molar mass of }PCl_5

\text{Mass of }PCl_5=(0.1408mole)\times (208.24g/mole)=29.32g

Now we have to calculate the mass of product produced (actual yield).

\%\text{ yield of }PCl_5=\frac{\text{Actual yield of }PCl_5}{\text{Theoretical yield of }PCl_5}\times 100

70.5=\frac{\text{Actual yield of }PCl_5}{29.32g}\times 100

\text{Actual yield of }PCl_5=20.67g

Therefore, the mass of product produced if the reaction occurred with a 70.5 percent yield will be, 20.67 grams.

A balloon with a charge of 6.0 μC is held a distance of 0.80 m from a second balloon having the same charge. Calculate the magni
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:0.506 N

Explanation:

Given

Charge on first balloon q_1=6\ \mu C

Charge on second balloon is q_2=6\ \mu C

Distance between them r=0.8\ m

Electrostatic Repulsive force is given by

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

Where K is constant

F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 6\times 10^{-6}\times 6\times 10^{-6}}{(0.8)^2}

F=\dfrac{324\times 10^{-3}}{0.64}

F=0.506\ N

A m = 94.2 kg object is released from rest at a distance h = 1.15134 R above the Earth’s surface. The acceleration of gravity is
OleMash [197]

Answer:

v= 4055.08m/s

Explanation:

This is a problem that must be addressed through the laws of classical mechanics that concern Potential Gravitational Energy.

We know for definition that,

U = \frac{GMm}{r}

We must find the highest point and the lowest point to identify the change in energy, so

Point a)

The problem tells us that an object is dropped at a distance of h = 1.15134R over the earth.

That is to say that the energy of that object is equal to,

U_1=-\frac{(6.6738 * 10^{-11})(5.98 * 10^{24})(94.2)}{(1.15134)(6.38*10^6)}

U_2= - 5.1180*10^9J

Point B )

We now use the average radius distance from the earth.

U_2=-\frac{(6.6738 * 10^{-11})(5.98 * 10^{24})(94.2)}{(6.38*10^6)}

U_2= -5.8925*10^9J

Then,

\Delta U = U_2 - U_1 = -5.1180*10^9J - ( -5.8925*10^9J)

\Delta U = 774.5*10^6

By the law of conservation of energy we know that,

\Delta U = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

clearing v,

v= \sqrt{2 \Delta U/m}

v= \sqrt{2*774.5*10^6 /94.2}

v= 4055.08m/s

Therefore the speed of the object when it strikes the Earth’s surface is 4055.08m/s
