A uniform ladder 5.0 m long rests against a frictionless, vertical wall with its lower end 3.0 m from the wall. The ladder weigh

s 160 N. The coefficient of static friction between the foot of the ladder and the ground is 0.40. A man weighing 740 N climbs slowly up the ladder. (a) What is the maximum friction force that the ground can exert on the ladder at its lower end? (b) What is the actual friction force when the man has climbed 1.0 m along the ladder? (c) How far along the ladder can the man climb before the ladder starts to slip?

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Reaction force of the ground

R = mg

= 160 N

Maximum friction force possible

= μ x R

= μ x 160

= .4 x 160

= 64 N .

b )

 160 N will act at middle point . 740N will act at distance of 3 / 5 m from the wall ,

Taking moment about top point of ladder

160 x 1.5 + 740 x 3/5 + f x 4 = 900 x 3

240 + 444 + 4f = 2700

f = 504 N

c )

Let x be the required distance.  

Taking moment about top point of ladder

160 x 1.5 + 740 x 3 x / 5 + .4 x 900 x 4  = 900 x 3  ( .4 x 900 is the maximum friction possible )

240 + 444 x + 1440  = 2700

x = 2.3  m

so man can go upto 2.3 at which maximum friction acts .

Savatey [412]

Answer:

1.28 m

Explanation:

Generally, pressure of fluid is given by

P=\rho g h where g is acceleration due to gravity, h is the height and \rho is the density

Considering that the pressure for mercury is same as for blood only that the height and density of fluid are different then

\rho_b g h_b= \rho_m g h_m

Since g is constant, then

\rho_b h_b= \rho_m h_m

Making h_b the subject of the formula then

h_b=\frac {\rho_m h_m}{\rho_b}

Where subscripts m and b denote mercury and blood respectively

Assuming density of blood is 1060 Kg/m3, density of mercury as 13600 Kg/m3 and substituting height of mercury for 0.1 m then

h_b=\frac {13600*0.1}{1060}=1.283018868  m \approx 1.28 m

Len [333]

The process of digestion breaks down proteins into smaller molecules that are used to rebuild other proteins. During digestion, proteins undergo chemical changes.

<u>Option: D</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Proteins are broken down into amino acids considered the foundational element. When issued, these tiny molecules can then be consumed into the bloodstream via the gut wall. An enzyme is a protein which can regulate biochemical response rate. An enzyme integrates a water molecule around the bond in enzymatic hydrolysis processes which allows it to split.

The bonds which hold together the amino acids are recognized as peptide bonds. A hydrolysis process comparable to that included in splitting up carbohydrates is required to break the peptide bonds within a protein. Enzymes identified as proteases are required for the protein to disintegrate.

2. Suppose that a parallel-plate capacitor has circular plates with radius R = 30 mm and a plate separation of d = 5.0 mm. Suppo
seropon [69]

Answer:

The maximum value of the induced magnetic field is 2.901\times10^{-13}\ T.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of plate = 30 mm

Separation = 5.0 mm

Frequency = 60 Hz

Suppose the maximum potential difference is 100 V and r= 130 mm.

We need to calculate the angular frequency

Using formula of angular frequency

\omega=2\pi f

Put the value into the formula

\omega=2\times\pi\times60

\omega=376.9\ rad/s

When r>R, the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the r.

We need to calculate the maximum value of the induced magnetic field that occurs at r = R

Using formula of magnetic filed

B_{max}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}\epsilon_{0}R^2\timesV_{max}\times\omega}{2rd}

Where, R = radius of plate

d = plate separation

V = voltage

Put the value into the formula

B_{max}=\dfrac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(30\times10^{-3})^2\times100\times376.9}{2\times130\times10^{-3}\times5.0\times10^{-3}}

B_{max}=2.901\times10^{-13}\ T

Hence, The maximum value of the induced magnetic field is 2.901\times10^{-13}\ T.

4. show your understanding of electric and magnetic forces<br> below.
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric forces exist among stationary electric charges; both electric and magnetic forces exist among moving electric charges. ... The magnetic force between two moving charges may be described as the effect exerted upon either charge by a magnetic field created by the other.
