An outstretched arm of a person is held at an angle θ= 16.0° below the horizon and a 16.0 N weight is placed in the hand. The sh

oulder-to-elbow length is 25.5 cm and the an elbow-to-wrist length is 22.0 cm. The center of the weight is 7.0 cm from the person's wrist. Determine the magnitude of the torque about the elbow produced by the weight.

Answer:

240.4 Nm

Explanation:

The torque is the cross product of the force vector and the moment arm length vector

T = \vec{F} \times \vec{s}

T = Fs sin\theta

T = 16*(25.5 + 7 + 22)* sin16^o

T = 872*0.276

T = 240.4 Nm

a shopper pushes a cart 40.0m south down one aisle and then turns 90.0 degrees and moves 15.0m. He then makes another 90.0 degre
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The displacement is the distnce of the shopper from the starting point.

Sum of movement along the vertical = 40-20 = 20m

Movement along the horizontal (x direction) = 15.0m

Displacement will be gotten using the pythagoras theorem.

d = √20²+ 15²

d = √400+225

d = √625

d = 25.0m

Hence the shoppers total displacement is 25.0m

Ans: Beat Frequency = 1.97Hz

Explanation:
The fundamental frequency on a vibrating string is 

f =   \sqrt{ \frac{T}{4mL} }<span>  -- (A)</span>

<span>here, T=Tension in the string=56.7N,
L=Length of the string=0.66m,
m= mass = 8.3x10^-4kg/m * 0.66m = 5.48x10^-4kg </span>


Plug in the values in Equation (A)

<span>so </span>f = \sqrt{ \frac{56.7}{4*5.48*10^{-4}*0.66} }<span> = 197.97Hz </span>

<span>the beat frequency is the difference between these two frequencies, therefore:
Beat frequency = 197.97 - 196.0 = 1.97Hz

If a coin is dropped at a relatively low altitude, it's acceleration remains constant. However, if the coin is dropped at a very high altitude, air resistance will have a significant effect. The initial acceleration of the coin will be the greatest. As it falls down, air resistance will counteract the weight of the coin. So, the acceleration will decrease. Although the acceleration decreases, the coin still accelerates, that is why it falls faster. When the air resistance fully counters the weight of the coin, the acceleration will become zero and the coin will fall at a constant speed (terminal velocity). So, the answer should be, The acceleration decreases until it reaches 0. The closest answer is.
a. The acceleration decreases.

A plane increases its speed from 450 km/hr to 750 km/hr in 0.30 hour. What is its acceleration?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

The acceleration is found as:

a = 1000 km/h²

Explanation:

Initial speed of the plane = 450 km/h

Final speed of the plane = 750 km/h

Time taken = 0.3 h

Acceleration can be defined as the change of speed of the object divided by the time taken to bring that change

Acceleration is given as:

a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

where v(f) = 750 km/h , v(i) = 450 km/h , t = 0.3 h

Substitute the values in the equation of acceleration

a= \frac{750-450}{0.3}\\a=\frac{300}{0.3}\\a=1000 km/h^2

This is the found result
