The net torque on the seesaw is 294 Nm.

<h3>What is torque?</h3>

Torque is the force that tends to rotate the body to which it was applied.

To calculate the net torque, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • τ = mgd-m'gd'........... Equation 1

Where:

  • τ = Net torque
  • m = Jenny's mass
  • m' = Tom's mass
  • d = Jenny's distance from the pivot
  • d' = Tom's distance from the pivot
  • g = acceleration due to gravity

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 40 kg
  • m' = 30 kg
  • d = 1.5 m
  • d' = 1 m
  • g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • τ = (40×1.5×9.8)-(30×1×9.8)
  • τ  = 588-294
  • τ  = 294 Nm

Hence, The net torque on the seesaw is 294 Nm.

storchak [24]

(a) The plane makes 4.3 revolutions per minute, so it makes a single revolution in

(1 min) / (4.3 rev) ≈ 0.2326 min ≈ 13.95 s ≈ 14 s

(b) The plane completes 1 revolution in about 14 s, so that in this time it travels a distance equal to the circumference of the path:

(2<em>π</em> (23 m)) / (14 s) ≈ 10.3568 m/s ≈ 10 m/s

(c) The plane accelerates toward the center of the path with magnitude

<em>a</em> = (10 m/s)² / (23 m) ≈ 4.6636 m/s² ≈ 4.7 m/s²

(d) By Newton's second law, the tension in the line is

<em>F</em> = (1.3 kg) (4.7 m/s²) ≈ 6.0627 N ≈ 6.1 N

otez555 [7]
The discovery which Carnot made was that THE DIFFERENCE IN THE TEMPERATURES BETWEEN THE HOT AND THE COLD RESERVOIRS DETERMINE HOW WELL A HEAT ENGINE WOULD WORK.
Sadi Carnot was a French engineer, He proposed a theoretical thermodynamic cycle in 1824. In his cycle, Said hold that the efficiency of a heat engine depends on the temperature difference between its hot reservoir and cold reservoir.

MissTica

Answer:

Visible Light and Radio waves

Explanation:

The earth's atmosphere is transparent to a few windows in the electromagnetic spectrum. it is completely transparent to allow observation from the ground in visible light rang 380 to 740 nano meters. Also in the range of radio wave as communication are done from space to ground in the form of radio waves.

it is Partially transparent to Microwave and infrared range.
