Burl the painter weighs 600 Newtons. He stands in the exact middle of his stage. There are two scale readings attached to the tw

o cords holding up the stage.
The image shows a painter standing in the middle of a scaffold that is hanging with two ropes on each end. Each rope has a spring scale.

What is the weight measured by each scale?

200 N
300 N
600 N

Answer:

T = 300 N

Explanation:

As we know that the painter is standing at the middle of the scaffold

So here the two ropes will exert same tension on the scaffold

So we will have

T_1 + T_2 = W

also we know

T_1 = T_2

so we will have

2T = W

T = \frac{W}{2}

so tension is half of the weight in both the strings

So it is

T = 300 N

A dog travels north for 18 meters, east for 8 meters, South for 27 meters and then west for 8 meters. What is the distance the d
Afina-wow [57]
I'm really not sure if this is right but I'll try.
The distance that the dog traveled is probably all of the distances added up. I would guess that it's 67 meters in total. 
The displacement is a little more tricky but you pretty much have to put a mental map in your head. Since East and West are both 8 meters, they cancel each other out. He travels more southern and that means the displacement is 9 meters south of his original location

In an experiment to measure the wavelength of light using a double slit, it is found that the fringes are too close together to
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

halve the slit separation

Explanation:

As we know that

In YDS experiment, the equation of fringe width is as follows

\beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d}

where,

D denotes the separation in the middle of screen and slits

d denotes the distance in the middle of two slits

And to increase the Δx we have to decrease the d i.e, the distance between the two slits

Hence, the first option is correct

A new class of objects can be created conveniently by ________; the new class (called the ________) starts with the characterist
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

Inheritance, superclass, subclass

A new class of objects can be created conveniently by **inheritance**; the new class (called the **superclass**) starts with the characteristics of an existing class (called the **subclass**), possibly customizing them and adding unique characteristics of its own.

Explanation:

A class is a term in object oriented programming that is extensible program code used to create, name and implement what you want the objects to do.

Inheritance is used to describe the making of new classes from already existing classes. The general properties of the old classes remain in the new classes created from them.

Hence, the new classes (because they're usually an improvement on the old classes as they hold on to the wanted properties of the old classes and additional great ones are added or modified) are called superclasses and the old, already existing ones are called subclasses.

What are the two forces that keep a pendulum swinging?
NemiM [27]
The correct answer would be the third option. The two forces that keep a pendulum swinging would be tension and gravity. The force of gravity causes the pendulum to keep it swinging and tension blocks all resistances in order for the motion to continue.
