Answer:

8N and 32N

Explanation:

Given that a  light board, 10 m long, is supported by two sawhorses, one at one edge of the board and a second at the midpoint. A small 40-N weight is placed between the two sawhorses, 3.0 m from the edge and 2.0 m from the center.

To calculate the forces that are exerted by the sawhorses on the board, we must consider the equilibrium of forces acting on the board.

Let the two upward forces produce by the saw horses be P1 and P2

Assuming that the weight is negligible

Sum of the upward forces = sum of the downward forces.

P1 + P2 = 40 ....... (1)

Also, the sum of the clockwise moment = sum of the anticlockwise moments.

Let's assume that the board is uniform. The weight will act at the centre.

Taking moment at the centre:

P1 × 5 + 40 × 2 = 0

P1 = 40 / 5

P1 = 8N

Substitute P1 into equation 1

8 + P2 = 40

P2 = 40 - 8

P2 = 32N

What can happen to an electron when sunlight hits it? select all that apply. select all that apply. it can drop down to a lower
vlabodo [156]
There are two possible answers:
<span>- it can move out to a higher electron shell
- </span><span> it can stay in its original shell
</span><span>
In fact, sunlight consists of photons. When sunlight hits an electron, the electron can absorbs a photon, so it gains energy: as a result, the electron can move to a higher electron shell, which corresponds to a high energy level in the atom, if the energy given by the photon is at least equal to the energy difference between the two levels. However, if the photon energy is not large enough, the electron will stay in the same shell.</span>

A material that has a fracture toughness of 33 MPa.m0.5 is to be made into a large panel that is 2000 mm long by 250 mm wide and
scoray [572]

Answer:

F_{allow} = 208.15kN

Explanation:

The word 'nun' for thickness, I will interpret in international units, that is, mm.

We will begin by defining the intensity factor for the steel through the relationship between the safety factor and the fracture resistance of the panel.

The equation is,

K_{allow} =\frac{K_c}{N}

We know that K_c is 33Mpa*m^{0.5} and our Safety factor is 2,

K_{allow} = \frac{33Mpa*m^{0.5}}{2} = 16.5MPa.m^{0.5}

Now we will need to find the average width of both the crack and the panel, these values are found by multiplying the measured values given by 1/2

<em>For the crack;</em>

\alpha = 0.5*L_c = 0.5*4mm = 2mm

<em>For the panel</em>

\gamma = 0.5*W = 0.5*250mm = 125mm

To find now the goemetry factor we need to use this equation

\beta = \sqrt{sec(\frac{\pi\alpha}{2\gamma})}\\\beta = \sqrt{sec(\frac{2\pi}{2*125mm})}\\\beta = 1

That allow us to determine the allowable nominal stress,

\sigma_{allow} = \frac{K_{allow}}{\beta \sqrt{\pi\alpha}}

\sigma_{allow} = \frac{16.5}{1*\sqrt{2*10^{-3} \pi}}

\sigma_{allow} = 208.15Mpa

So to get the force we need only to apply the equation of Force, where

F_{allow}=\sigma_{allow}*L_c*W

F_{allow} = 208.15*250*4

F_{allow} = 208.15kN

That is the maximum tensile load before a catastrophic failure.

Helium (density 0.18 kg/m^3 at 0°C and 1 atm pressure) remains a gas until the extraordinarily low temperature of 4.2 K.What is
balu736 [363]

Answer:

166.6396m/sec

Explanation:

Molar mass of helium = 4\times 10^{-3}kg/mole

\gamma for helium is 1.67

The velocity of helium in sound at any temperature is given by v=\sqrt{\frac{\gamma RT}{M}}=\sqrt{\frac{1.67\times 8.314\times 8}{4\times 10^{-3}}}=166.6396m/sec

R is a constant 8.314 atm\ mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Sarah is 14 years old and skips school twice a week without any written explanation. What can she be charged with?
harina [27]

Answer:

Too many people are unaware or indifferent to that.” Fines can cost up to $500 per truancy, due within 30 days unless a judge gives an extension. For many students and families, it's another debt they can't pay. And if fines aren't paid, they can convert into an arrest warrant when a student turns 17.
