A 6-ft-long fishing rod AB is securely anchored in the sand of a beach. After a fish takes the bait, the resulting force in the

line is 8.6 lb. Determine the moment about A of the force exerted by the line at B. (Round the final answer to one decimal place.)

Answer:

Moment of Force, M = 51.6 lbf-ft

Explanation:

Given,

The fishing rod AB of length, L = 6 ft

The force acting on the rod, F = 8.6 lbf

The moment of force about A is given as the product of force and perpendicular distance. It is given by the formula

                                    M = F x L  

Substituting the given values in the above equation

                                     M = 8.6 lbf  x 6 ft

                                         = 51.6 lbf-ft

The moment about A of the force exerted by the line at B is, M = 51.6 lbf-ft

enot [183]

Answer:

2.25 %

Explanation:

65-95-99.7 is a rule to remember the precentages that lies around the mean.

at the range of mean (\mu) plus or minus one standard deviation (\sigma), P([\mu-\sigma \leq X \leq \mu+\sigma])\approx 68.3%

at the range of mean plus or minus two standard deviation, P([\mu -2\sigma \leq X \leq \mu+2\sigma])\approx 95.5%

at the range of mean plus or minus three standard deviation, P([\mu - 3\sigma\leq X \leq \mu+3\sigma])\approx 99.7%

So, note that  they are asking about the probability that it is greater than 0.32, that is the mean (0.3) plus two times the standard deviation (0.1) (P(X \leq \mu+2\sigma))  

So we know that the 95.5% is between \mu - 2\sigma = 0.3 -2*0.1 = 0.28 and \mu + 2\sigma = 0.3 +2*0.1 = 0.32, hence approximately the 4.5% (100%-95.5%) is greater than 0.32 or less than  0.28. But half (4.5%/2=2.25%) is greater than 0.32 and the other half is less than 0.28.

So P(X \leq \mu+2\sigma) \approx 2.25%

Every winter I fly home to Chicago. It takes 3 hours. What is my average speed?
Tanya [424]

It depends on where you live when you're not visiting Chicago. We need to know the distance of the trip.

Your average speed on the trip is . . .

(total distance in miles) / (3 hours)

miles per hour

Semenov [28]

Answer:

a. I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

b. K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

Explanation:

The inertia can be find using

a.

I = m*r^2

m = 0.95 g * \frac{1 kg}{1000g}=9.5x10^{-4} kg

r=0.54 cm * \frac{1m}{100cm} =5.4x10^{-3}m

I = 9.5x10^{-4}kg*(5.4x10^{-3}m)^2

I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

now to find the torsion constant can use knowing the period of the balance

b.

T=0.5 s

T=2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{I}{K}}

Solve to K'

K = \frac{4\pi^2* I}{T^2}=\frac{4\pi^2*2.7702 kg*m^2}{(0.5s)^2}

K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

How do air mass conditions ahead of the squall line support the development of new cell?
IRISSAK [1]
<span>Storm cells in a squall line typically move from the southwest to the northeast, and as the mature cells in the northeast begin to die off, new ones are formed at the opposite end to advance the line. The air in the southwest corner has strong vertical updrafts that allow new cells to grow and develop into thunderstorms.</span>
