Answer:

0.7 m between the balance point and Tiny

Explanation:

It's intuitive to say she sould be on the side the smaller mass is placed. How far from the balance point?

Let's call x that distance. and assume that the contraption is "oriented" so that being on the side with tiny (and teeny) gives you a positive distance from the balance point, and negative on the other side.

At equilibrium, the sum of all momentums (momenta?) will be zero:

67\times 1.4 +32\times x + 83 \times (-1.4) = 0\\32x -16(1.4) = 0 \rightarrow 2x=1.4 x= 0.7

In layman's term, she has to be halfway between the balance point and Tiny.

What is the strength of the electric field in a region where the electric potential is constant?
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Where the electric potential is constant, the strength of the electric field is zero.

Explanation:

As a test charge moves in a given direction, the rate of change of the electric potential of the charge gives the potential gradient whose negative value is the same as the value of the electric field. In other words, the negative of the slope or gradient of electric potential (V) in a direction, say x, gives the electric field (Eₓ) in that direction. i.e

Eₓ = - dV / dx        ----------(i)

From equation (i) above, if electric potential (V) is constant, then the differential (which is the electric field) gives zero.

<em>Therefore, a constant electric potential means that electric field is zero.</em>

Convert 100°c into Faherenite and kelvin in steps.​
wel

Answer:

100°c = 373.15 K

100°C=212°F

Explanation:

  • Given the 100°C

To convert Celsius to Kelvin, we need the following equation.

°C + 273.15 = K

100°C + 273.15 = K

373.15 = K

Therefore, 100°c = 373.15 K

  • Celsius To Fahrenhite:

F = 9/5C + 32

   =9/5(100)+32

  = (180) + 32

  = 212°

Therefore,

100°C=212°F
