Marianne and her family are driving from West Virginia to California. While driving through the Rocky Mountains, they encounter

a rock slide. A huge boulder, a few smaller rocks and several tree branches block the road. Her father creates a lever using a long tree branch and a small rock to help move the boulder. Look at the diagram below. Where should Marianne’s father place the small rock?
Question 6 options:

It makes no difference where he places the rock


He should place the rock (fulcrum) close to the boulder (at Point A).


He should place the rock (fulcrum) away from the boulder (at Point B).


He should place the rock (fulcrum) near the end of the branch (at Point C).

Answer:

Point A

Explanation:

Point C is way to close to where the force would need to be.

Point B is close but not as close, the reasonable answer would be point A.

Answer:

60 kg

80 kg

Explanation:

Work is equal to the change in energy.

W = ΔE = E − E₀

Let's start with block B.  The work done by the tension force is equal to the change in energy.  Initially, the block has potential energy.  Finally, the block has kinetic energy.

W = ΔE

FΔy = ½ mv² − mgh

T (-2.0 m) = ½ m (6.00 m/s)² − m (10 m/s²) (2.0 m)

T (-2.0 m) = m (-2 m²/s²)

T = m (1 m/s²)

Now let's look at block A.  The work done by tension and against friction is equal to the change in energy.  Initially, the block has no energy.  Finally, it has both kinetic and potential energy.

W = ΔE

Fd = ½ mv² + mgh − 0

(T − Nμ) (2.0 m) = ½ (4.00 kg) (6.00 m/s)² + (4.00 kg) (10 m/s²) (⅗ × 2.0 m)

(T − Nμ) (2.0 m) = 120 J

T − Nμ = 60 N

Draw a free body diagram of block A and sum the forces in the perpendicular direction to find the normal force N.

N = mg cos θ

N = (4.00 kg) (10 m/s²) (⅘)

N = 32 N

Substitute:

T − 32μ = 60 N

If μ = 0, then T = 60 N and m = 60 kg.

If μ = ⅝, then T = 80 N and m = 80 kg.

What conclusions can you draw about the connection between the Sun’s altitude and the latitude of the observer on seasonal chang
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Altitude of the Sun and the latitude position on the earth play an important role in the season change on the earth.

When the altitude of the sun is high then the average temperature of the earth is higher because the luminous intensity of the sun rays is higher due to the focusing of high energy sun rays over a small area.

But when the sun is at higher altitudes we receive less denser rays of the sun and hence we have less heat on the earth on an average.

  • But despite of the altitude some places on the earth have distinct temperature than the other place at the same time of the year. This is due to their latitudinal location. The places near the equator are warmer most of the times throughout the year because they receive the most direct rays while the poles receive slanting rays and hence are colder even in summer when the earth is at lower altitudes.

Doppler Effect acts on ___________ type of wave
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

option c

Explanation:

<h3>As per the doppler's effect, when an object in the universe move at a fast speed away from the observer, its possesses a high wavelength as compared to its original wavelength.</h3><h3 /><h3>Since red light has the highest wavelength, any object's wavelength moving towards a high values is said to be red shifted.</h3><h3 /><h3>As per the doppler's effect, when an object in the universe move at a fast speed away from the observer, its possesses a high wavelength as compared to its original wavelength.Since red light has the highest wavelength, any object's wavelength moving towards a high values is said to be red shifted.Thus, the higher the wavelength, the lower will be the frequency of an object and hence it moves at a faster speed away from the observer and hence the universe is said to be expanding.</h3><h3 /><h3>As per the doppler's effect, when an object in the universe move at a fast speed away from the observer, its possesses a high wavelength as compared to its original wavelength.Since red light has the highest wavelength, any object's wavelength moving towards a high values is said to be red shifted.Thus, the higher the wavelength, the lower will be the frequency of an object and hence it moves at a faster speed away from the observer and hence the universe is said to be expanding.Thus, option C is correct.</h3><h3>hope help</h3>
