A meterstick of negligible mass is placed on a fulcrum at the 0.4 m mark, with a 1 kg mass hung at the zero mark and a 0.5 kg mass hung at the 1.0 m mark. The meterstick is held horizontal and released. Immediately after release, the magnitude of the net torque on the meterstick about the fulcrum is most nearly: a. 1 Nm
b. 2 Nm.
c. 2.5 Nm.
d. 7 Nm
e. 7.5 Nm

Science and technology are interdependent. advances in one lead to advances in the other. give an example of this phenomenon.

Aperson gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. the cart travels forward along the floor, gradually slowing as it moves. consider the horizontal force(s) on the cart while it is moving forward and slowing. which of the following statements is correct? (a) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the forward force is larger. (b) only a forward force is acting which diminishes with time. (c) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the backward force is larger. (d) only a backward force is acting, no forward force.
