Answer:

Moment of the force is 20 N-m.

Explanation:

Given:

Force exerted by the person is, $F=80\ N$

Distance of application of force from the point about which moment is needed is, $d=25\ cm=\frac{25}{100}\ m=0.25\ m$

Now, we know that, moment of a force 'F' about a point at a perpendicular distance of 'd' from the same point is given as the product of the force and the perpendicular distance.

Therefore, the moment of the force about the end of the claw hammer is given as:

$M=F\times d\\\\M=(80\ N)(0.25\ m)\\\\M=20\textrm{ N-m}$

Hence, the moment of the force exerted by the person about the end of the claw hammer is 20 N-m.

Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

$W=[ Fcos\theta]*S$ where $Fcos\theta$ is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

$Hence\ W= FScos\theta$

$= F.S$

As per the question the power P is given as -

$P=\frac{W}{\delta t}$

$=\frac{F.S}{\delta t}$

$= F.\frac{S}{\delta t}$

$= \ F.V$

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V

What part of the scientific method tests the hypothesis?

blagie [28]

Answer:

A hypothesis is a conjecture, based on knowledge obtained while seeking answers to the question. The hypothesis might be very specific, or it might be broad. Scientists then test hypotheses by conducting experiments or studies.

What is the average cost for a severe injury in a collision?

koban [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to research and data, the average cost for a severe injury in a collision is $247,000.

These include traumatic brain injury, severe damage to limbs which could result to loss of the limbs, spinal cord injuries that could result to partial or total paralysis as well as internal damage to organs in the collision.
