Tim has a weight of 500N, which his half of his father's weight. He, his father and his uncle sit on a see saw. If
both Tim and his father sit on the right ended of the
see saw, 5m from the pivot, his uncle's weight is the
same his fathers. Where should Tim's uncle sit in order
to achieve a state of balance?

3.75m on the left end

Explanation:

Given data

Tim's  weight = 500N= 0.5kN

Tim's fathers weight= 500*2= 1000N= 1kN

Tim and the fathers weight = 500+1000= 1500N= 1.5kN

Tim's uncle weight= 1.5kN

Length of seesaw= 5m

let the distance  Tim's uncle sits be x

We know that summation of clockwise moment equals the summation of anticlockwise moment

Taking moment about the center of the seesaw

1.5*2.5= 1*x

3.75= 1x

Divide boths sides by 1

x= 3.75/1

x= 3.75m

Hence Tim's uncle will sit 3.75m on the left end

answer: the correct answer id option(d).

explanation:

snell's law refraction:

the angle of refraction =

the angle of incidence =

refractive index of air = = 1

refractive index of glycerol = 1.47

from the given options, the most closest answer to 63.72° is 65° of option (d).

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.
