(2) Put 5kg mass at left side (at 2m). This is fixed throughout the experiment! (3) Try to balance by putting 5kg mass at the ri

ght side. Write the position of the 5kg mass. Calculate the net torque. Torque= mass * g*length, and the unit for torque is N.m (4) Try to balance by putting 10kg mass at the right side. Write the position of the 10kg mass. Calculate the net torque. (5) Try to balance by putting 20kg mass at the right side. Write the position of the 20kg mass. Calculate the net torque. (6) What do you conclude?

We can conclude that as the mass on the right increases, the distance of the mass towards the right decreases. Also when the two masses balance, the net torque is zero.

<h3>What is torque</h3>

The torque experienced by an object a given position is the product of the applied force and the perpendicular distance of the object.

When 5 kg mass is at 2 m on the left, another 5 kg at 2 m on the right will balance it.

\tau _{net} = (2 \times 5 \times 9.8)  - (2 \times 5 \times 9.8)\\\\\tau _{net} = 0

<h3>Position of 10 kg mass on the right</h3>

Apply principle of moment

F_1r_1 = F_2r_2\\\\(m_1gr_1) = (m_2gr_2)\\\\r_2 = \frac{m_1gr_1}{m_2g} \\\\r_2 = \frac{m_1 r_1}{m_2} \\\\r _2 = \frac{5 \times 2}{10} \\\\r_2 = 1 \ m

<h3>Net torque</h3>

\tau_{et} = m_2gr_2 - m_1gr_1\\\\\tau_{et} = (10 \times 9.8 \times 1) - (5 \times 9.8 \times 2)\\\\\tau_{et} = 0

<h3>Position of the 20 kg mass</h3>

r_2 = \frac{5 \times 2}{20} \\\\r_2 = 0.5 \ m

<h3>Net torque</h3>

\tau_{et} = m_2gr_2 - m_1gr_1\\\\\tau_{et} = (20 \times 9.8 \times 0.5) - (5 \times 9.8 \times 2)\\\\\tau_{et} = 0

Thus, we can conclude that as the mass on the right increases, the distance of the mass towards the right decreases. Also when the two masses balance, the net torque is zero.

Think about it: suppose a meteorite collided head-on with mars and becomes buried under mars's surface. what would be the elasti
Ket [755]

Answer:

Perfectly inelastic collision

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

1. Elastic collision : When the momentum of the system and the kinetic energy of the system is conserved, the collision is said to be elastic. For example, the collision of two atoms or molecules are considered to be elastic collision.

2. Inelastic collision: When the momentum  the system is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved, the collision is said to be inelastic. For example, collision of a ball with the mud.

For a perfectly elastic collision, the two bodies stick together after collision.

Here, the meteorite collide with the Mars and buried inside it, the collision is said to be perfectly inelastic. here the kinetic energy of a body lost completely during the collision.

A steel cable has a cross-sectional area 2.54 10-3 m2 and is kept under a tension of 1.01 104 N. The density of steel is 7860 kg
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The speed is equals to 22.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given Data:

Area = A=2.54*10^-^3m^2\\Force = F = 1.01*10^4N\\density = p = 7860 kg/m^3

Required:

Speed of Traverse wave = c =?

Solution:

As we know that

p=m/V\\\\ p=m/(L*A)\\p*A=m/L

Now the equation for speed of traverse wave is calculated through:

\sqrt \frac{F*L}{m}\\

=\sqrt\frac{F}{m/L} \\\sqrt{} \frac{F}{p*A}

Substituting the values

\sqrt\frac{1.01*10^4}{7860*2.54*10^-^3}  \\

=22.49 m/s

Which of these discoveries contradict components of Dalton’s atomic theory? Check all of the boxes that apply. Atoms contain sma
EastWind [94]

Explanation:

According to Dalton's atomic theory, all the atoms are individual, all the atoms of the same element are identical in properties and mass, the compound is formed from two or more kinds of the atoms, all the matter is made up of small atoms and the chemical reaction is a rearrangement of the atoms.

The discoveries which contradicts the components of Dalton's atomic theory from the given discoveries are:

Nuclear reactions can change an atom of one element into an atom of another element.

Atoms of a given element can have different numbers of neutrons.

Atoms contain smaller particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons.

How do charges act on insulators and conductors?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

An insulator holds charge within its atomic structure. Objects with like charges repel each other, while those with unlike charges attract each other. A conducting object is said to be grounded if it is connected to the Earth through a conductor.
