Answer:

The torque produced by the pile of rocks is $\tau = 35.63\ N \cdot m$

The distance of the single for equilibrium to occur is $r_s =1.62 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the left rock is $m_s = 2.25 \ kg$

The mass of the rock on the right $m_p = 10.1 kg$

The distance from fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks is $r_p = 0.360 \ m$

Generally the torque produced by the pile of rock is mathematically represented as

$\tau = m_p * g * r_p$

Substituting values

$\tau = 10.1 * 9.8 * 0.360$

$\tau = 35.63\ N \cdot m$

Generally we can mathematically evaluated the distance of the the single rock that would put the system in equilibrium as follows

The torque due to the single rock is

$\tau = m_s * g * r_s$

At equilibrium the both torque are equal

$35.63 = m_s * r_s * g$

Making $r_s$ the subject of the formula

$r_s = \frac{35.63 }{m_s * g}$

Substituting values

$r_s = \frac{35.63 }{2.25 * 9.8}$

$r_s =1.62 \ m$

In a discussion person A is talking 1.2 dB louder than person B, and person C is talking 3.2 dB louder than person A. What is th

liberstina [14]

Answer: 3.84dB

Explanation:

Since person A is talking 1.2dB louder than B, we will have

A = 1.2B... (1)

Similarly, person C is talking 3.2 dB louder than person A, we have

C = 3.2A... (2)

From equation 1, B = A/1.2... (3)

To get the ratio of the sound intensity of person C to the sound intensity of person B, we will divide equation 2 by 3 to give

C/B = 3.2A/{A/1.2}

C/B = 3.2A×1.2/A

C/B = 3.2×1.2

C/B = 3.84dB

Two gliders are on a frictionless, level air track. Both gliders are free to move. Initially, glider A moves to the right and gl

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The change in momentum of both objects is the same but in opposite direction.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The momentum of the system is calculated as the sum of the momentums of each glider. The momentum of the system is conserved if no external force is acting on the objects (as in this case). That means that the initial momentum of the system is equal to the final momentum of the system.

The momentum of each glider is calculated as follows:

p = m · v

Where:

p = momentum.

m = mass of the glider.

v = velocity.

The momentum of the system for glider A and B can be calculated as follows:

initial momentum = mA · vA + mB · vB

Where:

mA and vA = mass and velocity of glider A

mB and vB = mass and velocity of glider B

Initially, glider B is at rest so that vB = 0. Then, the initial momentum of the system is:

initial momentum = mA · vA

The final momentum of the system is calculated as follows:

final momentum = mA · vA´ + mB · vB´

Where vA´ and vB´ are the final velocities of glider A and B respectively.

We know that mB = 4mA and that vA´ is negative. The the final momentum will be:

final momentum = -mA · vA´ + 4mA · vB´

Since initial momentum = final momentum:

mA · vA = -mA · vA´ + 4mA · vB´

mA · vA + mA · vA´ = 4mA · vB´

vA + vA´ = 4 vB´

The change in momentum of glider A (ΔpA) is calculated as follows:

ΔpA = final momentum - initial momentum

ΔpA = -mA · vA´ - mA · vA = -mA (vA + vA´) = -4mA · vB´

The change in momentum of glider B (ΔpB) is calculated as follows:

ΔpB = final momentum - initial momentum

ΔpB = 4mA · vB´ - 0 = 4mA · vB´

Then, the change in momentum of both objects is the same but in opposite direction. That´s why the momentum is conserved.
