How does the tension in your arms compare when you let yourself dangle motionless by both arms and by one arm

Physics
1 answer:
PolarNik [594]2 years ago
6 0

When you support yourself with two arms, the tension in each arm is half of the tension you experience when you support your weight with only one arm.

The tension in your arm is directly proportional to the weight of your body.

T = W = mg

When you support your weight with your two arms;

  • the upward force balancing the downward force due to the weight of your body will be distributed equally in both arms.

Tension \ in \ each \ arm = \frac{Total \ weight \ of \ your \ body}{2}

When you support the weight of your body with one arm,

  • the upward force balancing the downward force due to your weight will be on only one arm

Tension \ in \ the \ one \ arm = Total \ weight \ of \ your \ body

Thus, when you support yourself with two arms, the tension in each arm is half of the tension you experience when you support your weight with only one arm.

A football punter wants to kick the ball so that it is in the air for 4.5 s and lands 50 m from where it was kicked. Assume that
irakobra [83]

Answer:

(a) The angle of projection is 63 degree.

(b) The velocity of projection is 24.5 m/s.

Explanation:

Height, h = 1 m

horizontal distance, d = 50 m

time, t = 4.5 s

Let the initial velocity is u and the angle is A.

(a) Horizontal distance = horizontal velocity x time

50 = u cos A x 4.5

u cos A = 11.1 .....(1)

Use second equation of motion in vertical direction

h = u t + 0.5 gt^2\\\\- 1 = u sin A \times 4.5 - 0.5 \times 9.8\times 4.5^2\\\\u sin A = 21.8 ..... (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

tan A = 1.97

A = 63 degree

(b) Substitute the value of A in equation (2)

u x sin 63 = 21.8

u = 24.5 m/s

What happens to the gravitational attraction between 2 objects
amm1812

Answer:

It decreases.

Explanation:

between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases
