You and your little cousin sit on a see-saw. You sit 0.5 m from the fulcrum, and your cousin sits 1.5 m from the fulcrum. You weigh 600 N. How much does she weigh?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

200N

Explanation:

Distance from fulcrum by you  = 0.5m

Distance from fulcrum by cousin  = 1.5m

Your weight  = 600N

Unknown:

Weight of my cousin = ?

Solution:

From the principle of moment, when an object is balanced, the sum of the clockwise moment is equal to the sum of the anti-clockwise moment.

So;

   Your weight x distance from fulcrum by you  = Weight of cousin x her distance from the fulcrum

   600 x 0.5  = weight of cousin x 1.5m

    Weight of cousin  = 200N

find mass when kinetic energy is 1.6 J and velocity is 0.2 m/s

Answers

Answer:

4kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Kinetic energy  = 1.6J

Velocity  = 0.2m/s

Unknown:

Mass of the body = ?

Solution:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy due to the motion of the body.

It is mathematically expressed as;

  Kinetic energy = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

          1.6  =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  x 0.2 x v²  

          1.6  = 0.1v²

         v²   = 16

          v  = 4kg

Estimate how long the Sun would last if it were merely a huge fire that was releasing chemical energy. Assume that the Sun begins with roughly 108 joules per kilogram, a chemical energy content typical of atomic matter. You will need both the mass and luminosity of the Sun to do the calculation.

Answers

Answer:

You don't need to worry about this solar death anytime soon, though. Inside the sun, a churning fusion engine fuels the star, and it still has a lot of fuel left — about 5 billion years' worth.

Astronomers estimate that the sun has about 7 billion to 8 billion years left before it sputters out and dies. Humanity may be long gone by then, or perhaps we'll have already colonized another planet. Additional resources: Find out what will happen to the Earth when the sun dies, from Live Science.

The studies suggest that the solar system’s planets will continue to orbit the Sun stably for at least 40 million years. But after that, they show there is a small but not insignificant chance that things could go terribly awry.

In one of Batygin and Laughlin’s simulations, Mercury was thrown into the Sun 1.3 billion years from now. In another, Mars was flung out of the solar system after 820 million years, then 40 million years later Mercury and Venus collided.

Explanation:

A 1232 kg car moving north at 25.6 m/s collides with a 2028 kg car moving north at 17.5 m/s . They stick together. In what direction and at what speed do they move after the collision?

Answers

Answer:

I. Angle = 41.7° Northeast.

II. Vr = 7.08m/s

Explanation:

Let the two cars be denoted by A and B

Given the following data;

Mass of car A = 1232 Kg

Velocity of car A = 25.6 m/s

Mass of car B = 2028 Kg

Velocity of car B = 17.5m/s

First of all, we would solve for momentum;

Momentum = mass × velocity

Momentum, M1 = 1232 × 25.6

Momentum, M1 = 31539.2 Kgm/s

Momentum, M2 = 2028 × 17.5

Momentum, M2 = 35490 Kgm/s

Now, let's find the resultant momentum using the Pythagoras theorem;

R² = M1² + M2²

R² = 31539.2² + 35490²

R² = 994721136.6 + 1259540100

R² = 2254261237

Taking the square root of both sides, we have

Resultant momentum, R = 47479.06 Kgm/s

To find the direction;

Angle = tan¯¹(M1/M2)

Angle = tan¯¹(31539.2/35490)

Angle = tan¯¹(0.89)

Angle = 41.7° Northeast.

To find the speed;

R = (M1 + M2)Vr

47479.06 = (31539.2 + 35490)Vr

47479.06 = 67029.2Vr

Vr = 47479.06/67029.2

Vr = 7.08m/s

Four atoms of hydrogen combine with one carbon atom to form CH4, but only two hydrogen atoms combine with one oxygen atom to form H2O. Which of the following helps to explain why?
Hydrogen has one valence electron.
Oxygen has two vacancies in its electron shell, but carbon has four vacancies.
Metallic bonds form between positively charged metal ions and delocalized electrons.
Atoms may share electrons in order to fill their electron shells.

Answers

Answer:

Oxygen has two vacancies in its electron shell, but carbon has four vacancies.

Explanation:

Oxygen has vacant space for two electrons in its outermost shell. Hence, it can accommodate two electrons from two hydrogen atoms. This leads to the formation of the H₂O molecule. On the other hand, the Carbon atom has vacant space for four electrons. Hence, it can accommodate four electrons from four hydrogen atoms. This leads to the formation of the CH₄ molecule.

In this way the explanation can be provided by the following statement:

Oxygen has two vacancies in its electron shell, but carbon has four vacancies.

Answer:

-Atoms may share electrons in order to fill their electron shells.

- Hydrogen has one valence electron.

- Oxygen has two vacancies in its electron shell, but carbon has four vacancies.

Explanation:

According to this question, a shiny and flexible metal called Magnesium (Mg) is burnt in air to produce a white powder that has no shiny or flexible properties, however, has more weight than the magnesium metal itself.

This is possible because a CHEMICAL CHANGE has occured, hence, a new substance has been formed. The formation of a new substance during the burning process (chemical reaction), induced the increase in mass.

If speed is measured in meters per second and time is measured in second, the unit of acceleration is

Answers

Answer:

meters per second squared or meters per second per second

Explanation:

If speed is measured in meters per second and time is measured in second, the unit of acceleration is "meters per second squared or meters per second per second."

To illustrate better, speed is measured in meters per second = m/s, while time is measured in second = s.

Hence, the unit of acceleration is m/s². This implies that acceleration is the number of meters per second the velocity changes every second.

what is in the blank

Answers

Answer: Potential energy

Explanation:

Any form of stored energy is called potential energy. (option b)

Potential energy can come in various forms. Gravitational potential energy is associated with an object's position concerning the Earth's gravitational field. The higher the object, the more potential energy it possesses. Elastic potential energy is stored in objects like springs or rubber bands when they are compressed or stretched. Chemical potential energy is stored in the bonds between atoms and molecules in substances like food or fuel.

Remember, potential energy is a concept that helps us understand the ability of an object or a system to perform work or change its state based on its position or condition.

10. When a car turns, its front wheels do not turn by the same amount. In order that the car turn around a common point, the wheel on the side to which the car is turning, turns more than the other. Which of these correctly shows the alignment of a car's wheels when it is turning to its right?

Answers

Answer:

The front wheels are aligned towards the right.

Explanation:

Wheel alignment is very important. It ensures proper maintenance of the car's wheel. When a car turns around a common point, the wheel on that side to which the car turns, the turning is more than the other.

The wheel alignment consists of adjusting the wheel's angles so as to stay perpendicular to the surface of the road and to ensure proper tract to the tires. It also provides maximum life to the tire. The front wheels are aligned to the right when the car makes a right turn and the wheel leans in towards the center of the car.

Please show the work and steps. The answer is (3.3 s, 15 m/s)

Answers

Answer:

t = 3.3 s and V = 15 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by the car, d = 50 m

Initial speed, u = 5 m/s

Final speed, v = 25 m/s

Firstly we can find the acceleration of the car using third equation of motion. i.e.

[tex]v^2-u^2=2as\\\\a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2d}\\\\a=\dfrac{(25)^2-(5)^2}{2(50)}\\\\a=6\ m/s^2[/tex]

Let t is the time taken by the car to occur this.

[tex]t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{25-5}{6}\\\\t=3.3\ s[/tex]

Let v is the average velocity of the car. It can be calculated as follows :

[tex]V=\dfrac{u+v}{2}\\\\V=\dfrac{25+5}{2}\\\\V=\dfrac{30}{2}\\\\V=15\ m/s[/tex]

So, the time taken by the car to occur this is 3.3 seconds and the average velocity of the car is 15 m/s.

You need to calibrate your giant paintball bazooka, so you're fired at an angle of 60° and you find that the giant paintball splatter the ground at a horizontal distance of 107m from the end of the muscle in a distance of 1.7 M below the end of the muzzle. What is the muzzle velocity, V0, of your giant paint ball bazooka?

Answers

Answer:

Vx = V0 cos 60 = V0 ./ 2        horizontal speed

Vy = V0 sin 69 = V0 * .866 = .866 V0   vertical speed

t = 107 / Vx = 214 / V0   time to travel 107 m

h = Vy t - 1/2 * g t*2   time to fall 1.7 m

-1.7 = .866 V0 * 214 / V0 - 4.9 * (214 / V0)^2           substituting

224400 / V0^2 = 187

V0 = (224400 / 187)^1/2 = 2=34.64 m/s

t = 214 / 34.64 = 6.178 stc

Check:    h = Vy t - 1/2 g t^2

-1.7 = .866 * 34.64 * 6.178 - 4.9 * 6.178^2

-1.7  = -1.69

Answers

Answer:

DP = 56 [kg*m/s]

Explanation:

We know that momentum is defined by the product of mass by Velocity. In this way by means of the following equation, we can calculate the impulse.

[tex]P=m*v\\[/tex]

where:

P = momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

Now replacing:

And after the ball hits the wall:

[tex]P_{2}=8*2\\P_{2}=16[kg*m/s][/tex]

The change in momentum is equal to:

[tex]DP=72-16\\DP = 56 [kg*m/s][/tex]
