Answer:
The wife have to sit at 0.46 L from the middle point of the seesaw.
Explanation:
We need to make a sketch of the seesaw and the loads acting over it.
And by the studying of the Newton's law we can find the equation useful to find the distance of the mother sitting on the seesaw with respect to the center ot the pivot point.
A logical intuition will give us the idea that the mother will be on the side of her son to make the balance.
The maximum momentum with respect to the pivot point (0) will be:

Where L/2 is the half of the distance of the seesaw
Therefore the other loads ( mom + son) must be create a momentum equal to the maximum momentum.
The neutral pH is 7. Less than 7 indicates an acid and more than 7 indicates a base (up to 14).

NaCl - it's a salt (we can't measure the pH)
H2O - it can be an acid but also a base (the pH it is almost neutral,meaning close to 7 )
HF - it is a strong acid

KOH
- it is a strong base (pH=14)

He needs to use HF (Hydrogen fluoride) to decrease the pH.
Answer:
230 m/s northeast, 1.8 m/s up
Explanation:
204 kilometres = 204000 metres
15.0 minutes = 900 seconds
Velocity = Distance / Time
= 204000 / 900
= 230 m/s northeast (to 2 sf.)
1.6km = 1600 metres
Velocity = 1600 / 900
= 1.8 m/s up (to 2 sf.)
The most probable reason why the magnets won't stick on the refrigerator is that the body of the refrigerator and the magnets have like poles. If both have negative or both have positive poles facing each other, they will repel. In principle, magnets are attracted to opposite poles and like poles repel.
Answer:
The distance between the earth and the star is increasing.
Explanation:
When we observe an object and its electromagnetic radiation has been displaced to blue, it means that it is getting closer to us, causing the light waves it emits to get closer together and its wavelength to decrease towards blue, this is knowm as blueshift.
On the contrary, when an object is rapidly moving away from us, the light waves or electromagnetic radiation it emits have been stretched from their normal wavelength to a longer wavelength, towards the red part of the spectrum. This is known as redshift.
This phenomenon of changes in wavelength and frequency due to movement (whether the source approaches or moves away) is described by the Doppler effect.
So for this case because the light we perceive from the star has moved to the red part of the visible spectrum, we can conclude that it is moving away from the earth, and that the distance between the star and the earth is increasing.
