A boy and a girl are balanced on a massless seesaw. The boy has a mass of 75 kg and the girl's mass is 50 kg. If the boy sits 2.0 m from the pivot point on one side of the seesaw, where must the girl sit on the other side?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The girl must sit 5 m on the other side of the seesaw.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the boy, = 75 kg

mass of the girl, = 50 kg

distance of the boy from the pivot, = 2 m

let the distance of the girl from the pivot = d

    <-------------2m-------------><-------------d-------------->

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     ↓                                  Δ                                   ↓

     75                                                                      50

Apply the principle of moment, about the pivot;

clockwise moment = anticlockwise moment

75 x 2 = 50 x d

150 = 50d

d = 150 / 50

d = 3 m

The distance of the girl from the pivot is 3 m.

Therefore, the girl must sit ( 2m + 3m ) on the other side of the seesaw.

Newton’s Second Law

Unbalanced forces

When the forces acting on an object do not balance, the resultant force will cause the object to accelerate in the direction of the resultant force.

In other words, a resultant force on a body will cause it to change its velocity. This simply means that unbalanced forces will cause:

acceleration

deceleration

change in direction

Kinetic energy and mass are ________ proportional.

Answers

Answer:

The Kinetic energy and mass are _directly_ proportional.

Explanation:

We know that Kinetic Energy is basically termed as the capacity of a body to do work.

Kinetic energy is often used to associate with moving objects, therefore, K.E is normally termed as the energy of motion.

The formula of K.E of an object of mass and velocity is defined

K.E = 1/2mv²

From the formula, it is clear that K.E is directly proportional to its mass and also directly proportional to the square of its velocity.

For example,

If A toy plane with a mass of 10 kg is flying at 20 m/s. Its K.E will be:

m = 10 kgv = 20 m/s

K.E = 1/2mv²

      = 1/2(10)(20)²

      = 1/2(10)(400)

       = 5(400)

      = 2000 J

Now, let suppose, if we double the mass of a toy plane i.e.

m = 20 kg

so

K.E = 1/2mv²

      = 1/2(20)(20)²

      = 1/2(20)(400)

      = 10(400)

      = 400 J

Therefore, the K.E is doubled when doubled the mass.

Therefore, the Kinetic energy and mass are _directly_ proportional.

directly

Explanation:

A gold ball has a mass of 45g. In a speed test, a golf ball was driven from rest to a velocity of 90m/s.

a) If the time taken for the golf ball to reach this velocity was 0.0005 seconds. What acceleration was this?

b) What forces was applied to the golf ball?

Answers

Answer:

1)

Acceleration (a)=change in velocity/ change in time

Velocity (v)=90m/s

Time=0.0005s

a=90/0.0005

The acceleration =180000m/s^2 or 180km/s^2

Force = mass x acceleration

m=40g= 0.04kg

F= 0.04x 180000

F= 7200N or 7.2kN

Answers

Answer:

temperature

Explanation:

The movement of particles in an object is directly proportional to the temperature of the object. As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy increases too. This makes the last option (potential energy) incorrect.

The increased kinetic energy results to particles moving farther from each other, which means the particle attraction becomes weaker. This makes the third option (particle attraction) incorrect.

The particle arrangement shows the particles being widely separated. Therefore the arrangement decreases because they become less intact. This makes the first option (particle arrangement) incorrect.

A mixture of 5 cm3 of CH4 and 100 cm3 of air is exploded. Assume air is 80% N2 by volume and 20% O2 by volume. The resulting mixture is cooled. All volumes are measured at room temperature and pressure.

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(l)

What is the composition of the resulting gas?

Answers

Answer:

The composition of the resulting gas;

A. 5 cm³ of CO₂, 10 cm³ of O₂, 80 cm³ of N₂, and 10 cm³

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The volume of CH₄ in the mixture of air and methane = 5 cm³

The volume of air in the mixture of air and methane = 100 cm³

The percentage by volume of nitrogen, N₂ in the air = 80%

The percentage by volume of oxygen, O₂ in the air = 20%

The equation for the reaction of the chemical reaction between the methane and the air in the mixture is given as follows;

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

Therefore, we have;

1 mole of CH₄ reacts with 2 moles of O₂ to produce 1 mole of CO₂ and 2 moles of H₂O

By Avogadro's law, we have that equal volumes of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contains equal number of molecules

Therefore, we have;

1 cm₃ of CH₄ reacts with 2 cm³ of O₂ to produce 1 cm³ of CO₂ and 2 cm³ of H₂O

From which we have;

5 cm₃ of CH₄ reacts with 10 cm³ of O₂ to produce 5 cm³ of CO₂ and 10 cm³ of H₂O (steam)

The volume of the oxygen used in the reaction = 10 cm³

The volume of oxygen present in the air = 20% × 100 cm³ = 20 cm³

The volume of nitrogen present in the air = 80% × 100 cm³ = 80 cm³

Therefore, the composition of the resulting gas is given as follows;

1) 80 cm³ Nitrogen

2) 10 cm³ Oxygen

3) 5 cm³ CO₂

4) 10 cm³ H₂O

The final composition of all the gases in the mixture has been [tex]\rm 80\;cm^3[/tex] Nitrogen,  [tex]\rm 10\;cm^3[/tex] oxygen,  [tex]\rm 5\;cm^3[/tex] carbon dioxide, and [tex]\rm 10\;cm^3[/tex] water (steam). Thus, the correct option is A.

The mixture of air has been composed of 20 % oxygen and 80 % nitrogen. The volume of air has been [tex]\rm 100\;cm^3[/tex]. Thus, the volume of oxygen and nitrogen in the air has been:

The volume of oxygen, [tex]V_O_2=20\;\rm cm^3[/tex]

The volume of nitrogen, [tex]V_N_2=80\;\rm cm^3[/tex]

Since the reaction, the nitrogen has been remained unused, thus the final composition of nitrogen has been [tex]\rm 80 \;cm^3[/tex].

The balanced equation for the reaction of methane with oxygen has been:

[tex]\rm CH_4\;+\;2\;O_2\;\rightarrow\;CO_2\;+\;2\;H_2O[/tex]

According to Avogadro's law, the presence of gases at the same temperature has volume proportional to the moles of the gases.

Thus, from the balanced chemical equation:

[tex]\rm 1\;cm^3\;CH_4=2\;cm^3\;O_2[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]\rm 5\;cm^3\;CH_4=10\;cm^3\;O_2[/tex]

Since the available oxygen has been [tex]\rm 20\;cm^3[/tex], the remaining oxygen after the reaction has been [tex]\rm 10\;cm^3[/tex].

Thus, the final composition of oxygen has been [tex]\rm 10\;cm^3[/tex].

Methane has been the limiting reactant. Thus, the concentration of carbon dioxide and water formed has been:

[tex]\rm 1\;cm^3\;CH_4=1\;cm^3\;CO_2\\5\;cm^3\;CH_4=5\;cm^3\;CO_2[/tex]

The final composition of carbon dioxide has been [tex]\rm 5\;cm^3[/tex].

[tex]\rm 1\;cm^3\;CH_4=2\;cm^3\;H_2O\\5\;cm^3\;CH_4=10\;cm^3\;H_2O[/tex]

The final composition of water (steam) has been [tex]\rm 10\;cm^3[/tex].

The final composition of all the gases in the mixture has been [tex]\rm 80\;cm^3[/tex] Nitrogen,  [tex]\rm 10\;cm^3[/tex] oxygen,  [tex]\rm 5\;cm^3[/tex] carbon dioxide, and [tex]\rm 10\;cm^3[/tex] water (steam). Thus, the correct option is A.

a stone of 1kg is thrown with a velocity of 20m/s and comes to rest after travelling a distance of 50 m. calculate the force exerted on the object.

Answers

Answer:

Force = -4N

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 1kg

Initial Velocity = 20m/s

Distance = 50m

To find the acceleration;

We would use the third equation of motion;

Since, it comes to rest, its final velocity is zero (0).

V² = U² + 2as

Substituting into the equation, we have;

0 = 20² + 2*a*50

-400 = 100a

a = -400/100

a = -4m/s²

Now to find the force exerted

Force = mass* acceleration

Force = 1*(-4)

Force = -4N
