Answer:

Stu's answer was incorrect. According to Ohm's law, R = V/I. This is the equation that should be used to obtain the correct answer, which is 8 ohms.

A 50-kg person stands 1.5 m away from one end of a uniform 6.0-m-long scaffold of mass 70.0 kg.

babymother [125]

Answer

given,

mass of the person, m = 50 Kg

length of scaffold = 6 m

mass of scaffold, M= 70 Kg

distance of person standing from one end = 1.5 m

Tension in the vertical rope = ?

now equating all the vertical forces acting in the system.

T₁ + T₂ = m g + M g

T₁ + T₂ = 50 x 9.8 + 70 x 9.8

T₁ + T₂ = 1176...........(1)

system is equilibrium so, the moment along the system will also be zero.

taking moment about rope with tension T₂.

now,

T₁ x 6 - mg x (6-1.5) - M g x 3 = 0

'3 m' is used because the weight of the scaffold pass through center of gravity.

6 T₁ = 50 x 9.8 x 4.5 + 70 x 9.8 x 3

6 T₁ = 4263

T₁ = 710.5 N

from equation (1)

T₂ = 1176 - 710.5

T₂ = 465.5 N

hence, T₁ = 710.5 N and T₂ = 465.5 N

Rod A has twice the diameter of rod B, but both are made of iron and have the same initial length. Both rods are now subjected t

Vilka [71]

Answer:

ΔLa/ΔLb = 1

Explanation:

The change in length of a solid is given by the following formula:

ΔL = α L ΔT

where,

ΔL = Change in length

α = coefficient of linear expansion

L = Original Length

ΔT = Change in Temperature

Since, the length and change in temperature for both rods are same. Also, the material of each rod is same, which implies that coefficient of linear expansion for both rods is same. Hence, the ratio of change in length of both rods will be:

A) The current theory of the structure of the Earth, called plate tectonics, tells us that the continents are in constant motion

suter [353]

A) The mass of the continent is $2.5\cdot 10^{21} kg$

B) The kinetic energy is 2016 J

C) The speed of the jogger should be 7.1 m/s

Explanation:

The mass of the continent can be calculated as

$m = \rho V$

where

$\rho = 2800 kg/m^3$ is its density

V is its volume

We have to calculate its volume. We know that the continent is represented as a slab of side 5900 km (so its surface is 5900 x 5900, assuming it is a square) and depth of 26 km, so its volume is:

$V=(5900 km)^2 (26 km)=9.05\cdot 10^8 km^3 =9.05 \cdot 10^8 \cdot (10^9 m^3/k^3)=9.05\cdot 10^7 m^3$

So, the mass of the continent is

$m=\rho V = (2800)(9.05\cdot 10^{17})=2.5\cdot 10^{21} kg$

The kinetic energy of a body is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the body

v is its speed

For the continent, we have:

$m=2.5\cdot 10^{21} kg$ is the mass

$v=4 cm/year$ is the speed

We have to convert the speed into SI units. we have:

1 cm = 0.01 m

$1 year = (365)(24)(60)(60) s = 3.15\cdot 10^7 s$

So, the speed is

$v=4 cm/year = 0.04 m/year \cdot \frac{1}{3.15\cdot 10^7}=1.27\cdot 10^{-9} m/s$

Therefore, the kinetic energy is

$K=\frac{1}{2}(2.5\cdot 10^{21} kg)(1.27\cdot 10^{-9} m/s)^2=2016 J$

Again, the kinetic energy of an object is

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

For the jogger in this problem, his mass is

m = 80 kg

And we want its kinetic energy to be equal to that of the continent, so

K = 2016 J

Re-arranging the equation for v, we find what speed the jogger needs to have this kinetic energy:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(2016)}{80}}=7.1 m/s$

A tin can whirled on the end of a string moves in a circle because

Ilya [14]

Answer:

There is an inward force acting on the can

Explanation:

This inward force is known as Centripetal force and it is responsible for making the can whirl on the end of a string in circle and it is also directed towards the center around which the can is moving.
