A meter stick of uniform density is pivoted at the 75 cm mark and a 250 g mass is placed at the 90.0 cm mark. If it balances the meter stick, what is the mass of the meter stick

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mass of the meter stick is 50 g.

Explanation:

make a sketch of the problem statement;

0-------------------------------------------------75cm------90cm-----100cm

↓                                                          Δ              ↓

W                                                                       250 g

where;

W is the mass of the meter stick

Apply the principle of moment; take moment about the pivot.

sum of the anticlockwise moment = sum of the clockwise moment

W(75 - 0) = 250(90 - 75)

W(75) = 250(15)

W(75) = 3750

W = 3750 / 75

W = 50 g

Therefore, the mass of the meter rule is 50 g.

A 45kg skater and a 60kg skater are standing still, holding hands on frictionless ice. They push away from each other in opposite directions. If the 45kg skater was measured traveling at 3.5 m/s, how fast was the 60 kg skater traveling?

Answers

Answer:

The 60 kg skater is traveling at 2.63 m/s in the opposite direction from the 45 kg skater.

Explanation:

The velocity of the 60 kg skater can be found by conservation of linear momentum:

[tex]P_{i} = P_{f}[/tex]

[tex]m_{a}v_{i_{a}} + m_{b}v_{i_{b}} = m_{a}v_{f_{a}} + m_{b}v_{f_{b}}[/tex]  (1)

Where:

[tex]m_{a}[/tex]: is the mass of the first skater = 45 kg        

[tex]m_{b}[/tex]: is the mass of the second skater = 60 kg        

[tex]v_{i_{a}}[/tex]: is the initial speed of the first skater = 0 (he is standing still)

[tex]v_{i_{b}}[/tex]: is the initial speed of the second skater = 0 (he is standing still)

[tex]v_{f_{a}}[/tex]: is the final speed of the first skater = 3.5 m/s

[tex]v_{f_{b}}[/tex]: is the final speed of the second skater =?

By replacing the above values into equation (1) and solving for [tex]v_{f_{b}}[/tex] we have:

[tex]0 = m_{a}v_{f_{a}} + m_{b}v_{f_{b}}[/tex]

[tex]v_{f_{b}} = \frac{-m_{a}v_{f_{a}}}{m_{b}} = \frac{-45 kg*3.5 m/s}{60 kg} = -2.63 m/s[/tex]

The minus sign is because the 60 kg skater is moving in the opposite direction from the other skater.

Therefore, the 60 kg skater is traveling at 2.63 m/s in the opposite direction from the 45 kg skater.

Which statement best describes the overall function of the human respiratory system? A. The heart pumps blood containing carbon dioxide into the lungs, where it is absorbed. B. Oxygen is transferred into the blood, which circulates the gas throughout the body. C. Oxygen is taken into the lungs and exchanged for carbon dioxide, which is exhaled. D. Carbon dioxide is taken into the lungs and exchanged for oxygen, which is absorbed.

Answers

Answer:

C

Explanation:

During respiration, oxygen diffuses into the lung (carbon dioxide diffuses out), gets into the blood, and is transported around the body. The hemoglobin of the blood distributes the oxygen to the various cells and carbon dioxide from these cells diffuses into the blood. The blood travels back to the lung where the carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen once again. The carbon dioxide is eventually exhaled out of the nose.

A. strongest positive charge

B. longest period

C. highest amplitude

D. shortest wavelength

Answers

Answer:

D. shortest wavelength

Explanation:

Photons with the highest energy have the shortest wavelength. The shorter the wavelength, the higher the energy of a photon.

A photon is a quantity that transmits electromagnetic energy from one place to the other.

Gamma rays have photons that transmits the highest amount of energy. The rays have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency of all electromagnetic radiations.

Energy, wavelength and frequency of a photon are connected using the expression:

    E =  h f  = [tex]\frac{hc}{wavelength}[/tex]

B. The field is parallel to the direction of flow of the current.
C. A magnetic field forms around the wire.
D. An electric field forms around the wire.

Answers

A magnetic field forms around the wire. and The field is perpendicular to the direction of flow of the current.

What is Magnetic field?

A magnetic field is a visual representation of how the magnetic force is distributed around and inside of magnetic objects.

Most people are at least somewhat familiar with common magnetic items and are aware that there may be forces at work between them.

We are aware that magnets have two poles and that the attraction or repulsion between two magnets depends on how they are oriented (similar poles). We are aware that this occurs in a certain area that surrounds a magnet.

Therefore, A magnetic field forms around the wire. and The field is perpendicular to the direction of flow of the current.

This question is incomplete, the question is asking which enzyme unwinds the DNA molecule during DNA replication.

The answer is DNA HELICASE

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process whereby DNA molecule (genetic material) is duplicated in the genome i.e. DNA makes an identical copy of itself. The process of DNA replication is carried out in a step by step manner with various enzymes functioning specifically throughout the process.

The first step is to unwind the double-stranded DNA molecule into two single strands. The two single strands serves a templates to synthesize another pairing strand to make two DNA molecules in total. The unwinding of the DNA strands is carried out by an enzyme called DNA helicase.

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

Vf = final velocity = 0.8 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 0.3 [m/s]

Please answer:
Galileo, in order to measure the speed of light, performed this simple
experiment: He and his assistant each took a lantern that had a shutter in front of it,
and stood on hilltops one mile apart in the night.
Galileo was to flash his lantern, and the assistant was to open the shutter of his own
lantern as soon as he saw the light from Galileo's lantern. Galileo had planned to
measure the time taken for light to travel from one hill to the other and back, and
calculate the speed of light using the formula, Speed = distance traveled / time
taken But he could not measure the speed of light using this method. What could
have been the reason for this?
A. The distance between the two hills was too much for them to see the light from
the other person's lantern.
B. Light does not travel in straight lines and so the distance traveled by it cannot
be measured.
C. The time taken for the light to travel would have been too little to have been
measured by them.
D. Light does not travel because it is present everywhere, so its 'speed' cannot be
calculated
I asked this question before also please answer

Answers

Answer: C. The time taken for the light to travel would have been too little to have been  measured by them.

Explanation:

Light travels at a speed of 300,000 km per second which is much too fast for the naked eye to even comprehend. This is why light shinning in a distance is picked up instantaneously by out eyes.

This experiment done by Galileo would therefore be unable to measure the speed of light because the light from either lantern would have traveled too fast for Galileo to be able to measure the time taken.

A plane is traveling at a velocity of 90 m/s. It accelerates at a constant rate of 1.5 m/s​2 until its velocity reaches 500 m/s. What distance did the plane cover while it was accelerating?

Answers

Answer:

The distance the plane covered while it was accelerating is 80,633.3 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the plane, u = 90 m/s

acceleration of the plane, a = 1.5 m/s²

final velocity of the plane, v = 500 m/s

The distance covered by the plane is given as;

v² = u² + 2ad

where;

d is the distance covered by the plane;

500² = 90² + 2(1.5)d

500²  - 90² = 3d

241900 = 3d

d = 241900 / 3

d = 80,633.3 m

Therefore, the distance the plane covered while it was accelerating is 80,633.3 m

a car initially traveling at 5 m/s accelerates for 2 seconds at 3 m/s. how far does it travel during this time?

Answers

Answer:

x = 16 [m]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using the following equation of kinematics.

[tex]v_{f}=v_{o}+a*t[/tex]

where:

Vf = final velocity [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 5 [m/s]

a = acceleration = 3 [m/s²]

t = time = 2 [s]

[tex]v_{f}=5+3*(2)\\v_{f}=11[m/s][/tex]

Now we can find the displacement using the following equation of kinematics.

[tex]v_{f}^{2} =v_{o}^{2} +2*a*x\\11^{2}=5^{2} +2*3*x\\96=6*x\\x=16[m][/tex]
