If the length of the ruler is 50 cm, the center of gravity cannot be greater than 25 cm.

The given parameters:

Weight of the ruler = 1 N

<h3>What is center of gravity (CG)?</h3>

Center of gravity is the point at which the weight of an object is concentrated.

Let the length of the ruler = L

The center of the gravity of the ruler is calculated as follows;

$X_{CG} = \frac{W(L_0) + W(L -X_{CG})}{W} \\\\X_{CG} = \frac{1(0) + 1(L -X_{CG})}{1}\\\\X_{CG} = L - X_{CG}\\\\X_{CG } + X_{CG} = L\\\\2X_{CG} = L\\\\X_{CG} = \frac{L}{2} \\\\when , \ L = 50 \ cm\\\\X_{CG} = \frac{50}{2} \\\\X_{CG} = 25 \ cm$

Thus, if the length of the ruler is 50 cm, the center of gravity cannot be greater than 25 cm. This may change if the length of the ruler changes because the center of gravity of uniform ruler depends on the length of the ruler.

Take for example driving by with a cake in your hand, then dropping it while going 30 mph. It will not drop directly down, it will gradually go in the direction you were driving while falling.
This is true I believe, if I'm interpreting correctly.

Explain how fluids exert pressure

Veseljchak [2.6K]

In a fluid, all the forces exerted by the individual particles combine to make up the pressure exerted by the fluid
Due to fundamental nature of fluids, a fluid cannot remain at rest under the presence of shear stress. However, fluids can exert pressure normal to any contacting surface. If a point in the fluid is thought of as a small cube, then it follows from the principles of equilibrium that the pressure on every side of this unit of fluid must be equal. but if this were not a case, the fluid would move in the directions of the resulting force, So the pressure on a fluid at rest is isotropic.

What is the instantaneous speed at 5 seconds? (remember s=d/t)

TEA [102]

5 seconds is a poor time to ask about, because the speed abruptly changes at exactly 5 seconds.

Up until that time, the speed has been 1 m/s. And then, at exactly 5 seconds, it becomes zero.
_________

It's also a poor question because speed is calculated from the distance covered, but the graph shows displacement, not distance. You can't really tell the distance covered from a displacement graph. For example, if an object happens to be moving in a circle around the place where it started, then the total distance covered keeps increasing, but its displacement is constant.
