Answer:

C. The lower legs are levers, and the knees are fulcrums. The ankles hold the loads.

Explanation:

As we know that while the person is doing exercise the weight is hold by the ankles as it is placed there.

Now the lower legs are bend while doing the exercise so we can say that lower legs are acting like lever which can rotate about one end and at the other end it is holding the weight

Now the knees are acting like fulcrum here because they are supporting the lower legs in such a way that they can rotate about its one end connected to knees

so correct answer will be

C. The lower legs are levers, and the knees are fulcrums. The ankles hold the loads.

A skateboarder, starting from rest, rolls down a 12.8-m ramp. When she arrives at the bottom of the ramp her speed is 8.89 m/s.

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

a) a = 3.09 m/s²

b) aₓ = 2.60 m/s²

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of her acceleration can be calculated using the following equation:

$V_{f}^{2} = V_{0}^{2} + 2ad$

<u>Where</u>:

$V_{f}$ : is the final speed = 8.89 m/s

$V_{0}$ : is the initial speed = 0 (since she starts from rest)

a: is the acceleration

d: is the distance = 12.8 m

$a = \frac{V_{f}^{2}}{2d} = \frac{(8.89 m/s)^{2}}{2*12.8 m} = 3.09 m/s^{2}$

Therefore, the magnitude of her acceleration is 3.09 m/s².

b) The component of her acceleration that is parallel to the ground is given by:

$a_{x} = a*cos(\theta)$

<u>Where</u>:

θ: is the angle respect to the ground = 32.6 °

$a_{x} = 3.09 m/s^{2}*cos(32.6) = 2.60 m/s^{2}$

Hence, the component of her acceleration that is parallel to the ground is 2.60 m/s².

I hope it helps you!

zavuch27 [327]

The base unit of length in the international system of units is the: meter (m)

<h3>Meter</h3>

The meter, ( symbol: m ) is the SI unit of length. It is derived by taking the fixed numerical value of the speed of light in vacuum c to be 299 792 458 when expressed in the unit m s-1

<h3>International system of unit ( SI ) base units</h3>

The SI base units are the standard units of measurement defined which is defined by the International System of Units (SI) for the seven base quantities of what is now known as the International System of quantities:

A 20N net force acts upon an object with a mass of 4. 0kg. What is the object's acceleration?

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

5ms^-2

Explanation:

F = 20N, m = 4.0kg, a = ?

Using the formula for Force

F = ma

Then making acceleration the subject of the formula

a = F/m

a = 20N/4.0kg

a = 5ms^-2
