I'm studying the equilibrium of forces so hard that I got confused for a sec. Is the force due to gravity included in summing up

moments about a point? Or external forces are only considered in the summation of moments? Thanks!

Answer:

Yes, you would consider the mass × gravity at the centre of gravity of the object in question to cause a moment, hence it should be included in your resolution

Ions can have a positive or negative charge. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F
mixas84 [53]

From among the choices provided, the more appropriate
answer is ' T ', the initial letter often used to represent
words that include 'true', 'truth', 'trust', etc., (as well as
'tree', 'train', 'transmit', 'Transylvania', 'trachea', 'travesty',
and 'trick', which are irrelevant to the present discussion).

This response is the most fitting and appropriate, because
the statement that precedes the list of allowable choices is
exemplary in its accuracy and veracity.  An ion can, in fact,
have a positive or negative charge, although the same ion
cannot have both.

A stationary police car emits a sound of frequency 1240 HzHz that bounces off of a car on the highway and returns with a frequen
Tju [1.3M]

Answer

given,

frequency from Police car= 1240 Hz

frequency of sound after return  = 1275 Hz

Calculating the speed of the car = ?

Using Doppler's effect formula

Frequency received by the other car

  f_1 = \dfrac{f_0(u + v)}{u}..........(1)

u is the speed of sound = 340 m/s

v is the speed of the car

Frequency of the police car received

  f_2= \dfrac{f_1(u)}{u-v}

now, inserting the value of equation (1)

  f_2= f_0\dfrac{u+v}{u-v}

  1275=1240\times \dfrac{340+v}{340-v}

  1.02822(340 - v) = 340 + v

   2.02822 v = 340 x 0.028822

   2.02822 v = 9.799

   v = 4.83 m/s

hence, the speed of the car is equal to v = 4.83 m/s

The speed of water at the tap of lower storey is more than that in the upper storey​
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Pressure of liquid in container is given by, P= height × density × acceleration of gravity.

At the lower storey, the height of the liquid from the open end is great, since height is directly proportional to pressure, the pressure exerted by liquid is maximum hence increase in velocity of flow.

Unlike the upper storey where the height of water is less hence the pressure exerted by the liquid is minimum which decreases the velocity / speed of liquid flow

A large convex lens stands on the floor. The lens is 180 cm tall, so the principal axis is 90 cm above the floor. A student hold
gayaneshka [121]
B. 60 cm 

  All parallel light rays are bent through the focal point of a convex lens, so the rays from the flashlight 150 cm above the floor must go through the same point on the principal axis as the rays from the flashlight 120 cm above the floor. The location of the focal point does not change when the position of the object is moved either vertically or horizontally.
Hope this helps !
