A woman in la fitness is holding an 8.0-kg weight at arm's length, a distance of 0.55 m from her shoulder joint. what is the tor

que about her shoulder joint due to the weight if the arm is horizontal?

TEA [102]3 years ago
6 0
Torque is equal to force times distance. first calculate the weight of the 8-0 kg weight, using the formula:
F = mg
where g is the accelration due to gravity ( 9.81 m/s^2)
F = 8 kg ( 9.81 m / s^2 )
F = 78.48 N

and torque =  Fl
where l is the distance
t = (78.48 N ) ( 0.55 m )
t = 43.16 Nm is the torque

What force acts on all objects, all the time on Earth?
TiliK225 [7]

The force that acts on all objects, all the time on Earth is gravitational force.

The force that surface exert on an object perpendicularly is normal reaction.

<h3>What force acts on all objects, all the time on Earth?</h3>
  • Force due to gravity is gravitational pull on objects due to its position on earth's surface.

The force due to gravity on object's is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion as follows;

F = mg

where;

  • m is the mass of the object
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

The force that surface exert on an object perpendicularly is normal reaction.

Thus, the force that acts on all objects, all the time on Earth is gravitational force.

An object with a resistance of 28 Ω has 76 V applied to it. How much electric current is going through this object? Answer in un
12345 [234]

Answer : The electric current of a circuit is, 2.8 A.

Explanation :

Using Ohm's law :

V=I\times R

Or,

I=\frac{V}{R}

where,

R = resistance of a circuit = 28 Ω

V = voltage of circuit = 76 volts = 76 V

I = current flowing in a circuit = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get :

I=\frac{V}{R}

I=\frac{76V}{28\Omega }

I=2.8A

Therefore, the electric current of a circuit is, 2.8 A

Why are chemical processes unable to produce the same amount of energy flowing out of the sun as nuclear fusion?
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

One of the major differences between nuclear reactions and chemical reactions is that nuclear reactions involve larger amount of energy than chemical energy. <u>This is because the force between the protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is much higher than the force of attraction between electrons and the positively charged nucleus, hence nuclear reactions involves/requires a larger amount of energy (because it's reactions involve the nucleus) than chemical reactions (because it's reactions involve the electrons)</u>.

Thus, during nuclear fusion, two light nuclei are bombarded against one another to produce a larger/heavier nuclei with the release of large amount of energy (because the forces between the protons and neutrons are much higher) unlike when two atoms/molecules are chemically combined together to form a new molecule with the rearrangement of electrons in the valence shells of the participating molecules.

How many miles will be completed by a runner with a constant speed of 5 mph in 30 minutes?
Mrac [35]
Distance=speed times time
speed=5mph=5 \frac{mi}{hr}
time=30mins=30/60hr=1/2hr

so
distance=speed times time
distance=(5\frac{mi}{hr})(\frac{1}{2}hr)
distance=\frac{5mi \space\ hr}{2hr}
distance=2.5mi

he will run 2.5 miles in 30 mins at the speed of 5mph
