During its lifepsan, the sun's core would keep contracting and heating up.
The temperature will keep increasing to the point where the temperature outside the core will get to hydrogen fusion temperatures.
The sun will grow in surface and eventually became the Red Giant
The weight of the meterstick is:

and this weight is applied at the center of mass of the meterstick, so at x=0.50 m, therefore at a distance

from the pivot.
The torque generated by the weight of the meterstick around the pivot is:

To keep the system in equilibrium, the mass of 0.50 kg must generate an equal torque with opposite direction of rotation, so it must be located at a distance d2 somewhere between x=0 and x=0.40 m. The magnitude of the torque should be the same, 0.20 Nm, and so we have:

from which we find the value of d2:

So, the mass should be put at x=-0.04 m from the pivot, therefore at the x=36 cm mark.
The Newton’s law Nikolas would use to come up with this idea is the <span>Third law that states:
</span><span>When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.
</span>
So, in this case, let's name the first Body
A which is the skateboard and the second body
B which is <span>the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher. Then, as shown in the figure below, according to the Third law:

Answer:
t = 13.7 s or t = 14 s with proper significant figures
Explanation:
The initial speed is 0 m/s since the car starts from rest, acceleration is 5.5 m/s2 and distance is 523 m.
Since we have initial speed, acceleration and distance we can use the following formula to find the time. We can now use algebra to work out our answer.
d = vt +
at²
523 = (0)t + (
)(5.5)t²
523 = 2.8t²
186.8 = t²
13.7 s = t
(t = 14 s with proper significant figures)
