A uniform 40-N board supports two children weighing 500 N and 350 N. If the support is at the center of the board and the 500-N

child is 1.5 m from its center, How far is the 350-N child from the center?

Answer:

b= 2.14 m

Explanation:

Given that

Weight of the board ,wt = 40 N

Wight of the first children , wt₁=500 N

Weight of the second children ,wt₂ = 350 N

The distance of the 500 N child from center ,a= 1.5 m

lets take distance of the 350 N child from center = b m

Now by taking the moment about the center of the board

We know that moment = Force x Perpendicular distance from the force

wt₁ x a = wt₂ x b

500 x 1.5 = 350 x b

b= 2.14 m

Therefore the distance of the 350 N weight child from the center is 2.14 m.

A wire with a length of 150 m and a radius of 0.15 mm carries a current with a uniform current density of 2.8 x 10^7A/m^2. The c
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The current is 2.0 A.

(A) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 150 m

Radius = 0.15 mm

Current densityJ=2.8\times10^{7}\ A/m^2

We need to calculate the current

Using formula of current density

J = \dfrac{I}{A}

I=J\timesA

Where, J = current density

A = area

I = current

Put the value into the formula

I=2.8\times10^{7}\times\pi\times(0.15\times10^{-3})^2

I=1.97=2.0\ A

Hence, The current is 2.0 A.

A small box of mass m1 is sitting on a board of mass m2 and length L (Figure 1) . The board rests on a frictionless horizontal s
chubhunter [2.5K]

Explanation:

Whole system will accelerate under the action of applied force. The box will experience the force against the friction and when this force exceeds then the box will move. so

Ff = μs×m1×g

m1×a = μs×m1×g

a = μs×g

The applied force is given by

F = (m1 + m2)×a so

F = μs×g×(m1+m2)

An electric clock is hanging on a wall. As you are watching the second hand rotate, the clock's battery stops functioning, and t
Setler [38]

Answer:

B. W is positive and a is negative

Explanation:

As we know that the angular speed of the second clock is in positive direction so as it comes to halt from its initial direction of motion then we have

initial angular velocity is termed as positive angular velocity

\omega = positive

now it comes to stop so angular acceleration is taken in opposite to the direction of angular speed

so we will have

\alpha = negative

so here correct answer is

B. W is positive and a is negative

On the earth, when an astronaut throws a 0.250-kg stone vertically upward, it returns to his hand a time T later. On planet X he
Liula [17]

Answer:

correct is d) a ’= g / 2

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the kinematics equations

On earth

      v = v₀ - a t

     a = (v₀- v) / T

On planet X

    v = v₀ - a' t’

    a ’= (v₀-v) / 2T

Let's substitute the land values ​​in plot X

     a’= a / 2

Now let's use Newton's second law

       W = ma

      m g = m a

      a = g

We substitute

      a ’= g / 2

So we see that on planet X the acceleration is half the acceleration of Earth's gravity

"if a stream flow measures 12 meters in 60 seconds, what is the stream's average rate of flow?"
Vlad [161]
<span>Discharge is the volume of water moving down a stream or river per unit of time, commonly expressed in cubic feet per second or gallons per day. In general, river discharge is computed by multiplying the area of water in a channel cross section by the average velocity of the water in that cross section: discharge = area * velocity. In this case, the answer is 0.2 m/s.</span>
