Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Mass \ of \ an \ adult \ femur \ bone = 0.00054 \ kg}$

Given:

Bone density = 2.0 kg/m³

Volume of bone (V) = 0.00027 m³

To Find:

Mass of an adult femur bone (m).

Explanation:

$\sf \implies Density = \frac{Mass (m)}{Volume (V)} \\ \\ \sf \implies \frac{Mass}{Volume} = Density \\ \\ \sf \implies Mass = Density \times Volume \\ \\ \sf \implies Mass = 2.0 \ kg/ \cancel{m^{3}} \times 0.00027 \ \cancel{m^{3}} \\ \\ \sf \implies Mass = 0.00054 \ kg$

A 45.0-kg girl is standing on a 168-kg plank. The plank, originally at rest, is free to slide on a frozen lake, which is a flat,

muminat

Answer:

The speed of the plank relative to the ice is:

$v_{p}=-0.33\: m/s$

Explanation:

Here we can use momentum conservation. Do not forget it is relative to the ice.

$m_{g}v_{g}+m_{p}v_{p}=0$ (1)

Where:

m(g) is the mass of the girl
m(p) is the mass of the plank
v(g) is the speed of the girl
v(p) is the speed of the plank

Now, as we have relative velocities, we have:

$v_{g/b}=v_{g}-v_{p}=1.55 \: m/s$ (2)

v(g/b) is the speed of the girl relative to the plank

Solving the system of equations (1) and (2)

$45v_{g}+168v_{p}=0$

$v_{g}-v_{p}=1.55$

$v_{p}=-0.33\: m/s$

I hope it helps you!

A skier of mass 82.9 kg starts from rest at the top of a frictionless incline of height 20 m. At the bottom of the incline, the

ehidna [41]

Answer: 170.67 N

Explanation:

Given

Mass of skier is $m=82.9\ kg$

Height of the inclination is $h=20\ m$

Here, the potential energy of the skier is converted into kinetic energy which is consumed by the friction force by applying a constant force that does work to stop the skier.

$\Rightarrow mgh=F\cdot x\quad \quad [\text{F=constant friction force}]\\\\\Rightarrow 82.9\times 9.8\times 20=F\cdot 95.2\\\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{16,248.4}{95.2}\\\\\Rightarrow F=170.67\ N$

Thus, the horizontal friction force is 170.67 N.

Minchanka [31]

The boundary between the crust and mantle is marked by a seismic-velocity discontinuity is called Mohorovicic discontinuity.

Mohorovicic discontinuity was discovered by Andrija Mohorovicic in 1909 who was a Croatian seismologist. He realized that the velocity of a seismic wave is related to the material's density where it is moving through. He decoded that the acceleration of the seismic waves that are observed within outer shell of the earth is a compositional change. Thus, the acceleration should be caused by a material of higher density.
