Answer:

The downward force does it need to exert in order to maintain equilibrium is 76.974 N

Explanation:

The downward force does it need to exert in order to maintain equilibrium is:

F=\frac{mgL}{x}

Where

m = mass of human head = 4.8 kg

g = gravity = 9.8 m/s²

L = center of mass = 1.8 cm = 0.018 m

x = distance = 1.1 cm = 0.011 m

Replacing:

F=\frac{4.8*9.8*0.018}{0.011} =76.974N

A 1.00 kg ball traveling towards a soccer player at a velocity of 5.00 m/s rebounds off the soccer
matrenka [14]

Answer:

A)   F = - 8.5 10² N,  B)   I = 21 N s

Explanation:

A) We can solve this problem using the relationship of momentum and momentum

          I = Δp

in this case they indicate that the body rebounds, therefore the exit speed is the same in modulus, but with the opposite direction

         v₀ = 8.50 m / s

         v_f = -8.50 m / s

         F t = m v_f -m v₀

         F = m \frac{(v_f - v_o)}{t}

let's calculate

         F = 1.00 \ \frac{(-8.5-8.5)}{2 \ 10^{-2}}

         F = - 8.5 10² N

B) let's start by calculating the speed with which the ball reaches the ground, let's use the kinematic relations

         v² = v₀² - 2g (y- y₀)

as the ball falls its initial velocity is zero (vo = 0) and the height upon reaching the ground is y = 0

         v = \sqrt{2g y_o}

calculate  

         v = \sqrt{2 \ 9.8 \ 10}

         v = 14 m / s

to calculate the momentum we use

         I = Δp

         I = m v_f - mv₀

when it hits the ground its speed drops to zero

we substitute

         I = 1.50 (0-14)

         I = -21 N s

the negative sign is for the momentum that the ground on the ball, the momentum of the ball on the ground is

        I = 21 N s

A particle has a velocity of v→(t)=5.0ti^+t2j^−2.0t3k^m/s.
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

a)a=5 i+2t j - 6\ t^2k

b)a=\dfrac{1}{24.83}(5i+4j-24k)\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that

v(t) = 5 t i + t² j - 2 t³ k

We know that acceleration a is given as

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

\dfrac{dv}{dt}=5 i+2t j - 6\ t^2k

a=5 i+2t j - 6\ t^2k

Therefore the acceleration function a will be

a=5 i+2t j - 6\ t^2k

The acceleration at t = 2 s

a= 5 i + 2 x 2 j - 6 x 2² k  m/s²

a=5 i + 4 j -24 k m/s²

The magnitude of the acceleration will be

a=\sqrt{5^2+4^2+24^2}\ m/s^2

a= 24.83 m/s²

The direction of the acceleration a is given as

a=\dfrac{1}{24.83}(5i+4j-24k)\ m/s^2

a)a=5 i+2t j - 6\ t^2k

b)a=\dfrac{1}{24.83}(5i+4j-24k)\ m/s^2

A 100 cm3 block of lead weighs 11N is carefully submerged in water. One cm3 of water weighs 0.0098 N.
Pie

#1

Volume of lead = 100 cm^3

density of lead = 11.34 g/cm^3

mass of the lead piece = density * volume

m = 100 * 11.34 = 1134 g

m = 1.134 kg

so its weight in air will be given as

W = mg = 1.134* 9.8 = 11.11 N

now the buoyant force on the lead is given by

F_B = W - F_{net}

F_B = 11.11 - 11 = 0.11 N

now as we know that

F_B = \rho V g

0.11 = 1000* V * 9.8

so by solving it we got

V = 11.22 cm^3

(ii) this volume of water will weigh same as the buoyant force so it is 0.11 N

(iii) Buoyant force = 0.11 N

(iv)since the density of lead block is more than density of water so it will sink inside the water


#2

buoyant force on the lead block is balancing the weight of it

F_B = W

\rho V g = W

13* 10^3 * V * 9.8 = 11.11

V = 87.2 cm^3

(ii) So this volume of mercury will weigh same as buoyant force and since block is floating here inside mercury so it is same as its weight =  11.11 N

(iii) Buoyant force = 11.11 N

(iv) since the density of lead is less than the density of mercury so it will float inside mercury


#3

Yes, if object density is less than the density of liquid then it will float otherwise it will sink inside the liquid

Two insulated copper wires of similar overall diameter have very different interiors. One wire possesses a solid core of copper,
balandron [24]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Radius of  solid core wire=r=2.28 mm=2.28\times 10^{-3} m

1mm=10^{-3} m

Radius of each strand  of thin wire=r'=0.456 mm=0.456\times 10^{-3} m

Current density of each wire=J=3750 A/m^2

a.Area =\pi r^2

Where \pi=3.14

Using the formula

Cross section area of copper wire has solid core =3.14\times (2.28\times 10^{-3})^2=16.3\times 10^{-6} m^2

Current density =J=\frac{I}{A}

Using the formula

3750=\frac{I}{16.3\times 10^{-6}}

I=3750\times 16.3\times 10^{-6}=0.061 A

Total number of strands=19

Area of strand wire=A'=19\times 3.14\times (0.456\times 10^{-3})^2=12.4\times 10^{-6} m^2

J'=\frac{I'}{A'}

3750=\frac{I'}{19\times 3.14(0.456\times 10^{-3})^2}

I'=3750\times 19\times 3.14(0.456\times 10^{-3})^2

I'=0.047 A

b.Resistivity of copper wire=\rho=1.69\times 10^{-8}\Omega-m

Length of each wire =6.25 m

Resistance, R=\frac{\rho l}{A}

Using the formula

Resistance of solid core wire=R=\frac{1.69\times 10^{-8}\times 6.25}{16.3\times 10^{-6}}=6.5\times 10^{-3}\Omega

Resistance of strand wire=R'=\frac{1.69\times 10^{-8}\times 6.25}{12.4\times 10^{-6}}=8.5\times 10^{-3}\Omega
