What do you have to do to become faster at running?
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer: Get stronger. Strength is critical to running fast because the more force you can exert against the ground the faster you can run.

Apply your new strength. Being strong is important for sprinting, but the ability to apply it is even more important. Sprinters move in a horizontal direction.

Take longer steps more quickly. Today, the concept of exerting more force against the ground is very popular for improving speed. ...

Run fast to get fast. Of all the strategies described in this article, this is the most important and often the most overlooked.

A 15 m ladder with a mass of 51 kg is leaning against a frictionless wall, which makes an angle of 60 degrees with the horizonta
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

Mass of ladder is 51kg

Then, it weight is

WL = mg = 51 × 9.81 = 500.31N

This weight will act at the midpoint of the ladder

Length of ladder is 15m

The ladder makes an angle 55°C with the horizontal

An object whose mass is 81kg is at 4m from the bottom of the ladder

Then, weight of object

Wo = mg = 81 × 9.81 = 794.61 N

Using newton second law

Check attachment

Ng is normal force on the ground

Ff is the horizontal frictional force

Nw Is the normal force on the wall

ΣFy = 0

Ng = Wo + WL

Ng = 794.61 + 500.31

Ng = 1294.92 N

Also

ΣFx = 0

Ff — Nw = 0

Then,

Ff = Nw

Now taking moment about point A.

Check attachment

using the principle of equilibrium

Sum of clockwise moment equals to sum of anti-clockwise moment

Also note that the Normal force on the wall is not perpendicular to the ladder, so we will resolve that and also the weights of ladder and weight of object

Clockwise = Anticlockwise

Wo•Cos60 × 4 + WL•Cos60 × 7.5 = Nw•Sin60 × 15

794.61Cos60 × 4 + 500.31Cos60 × 7.5 = Nw × Sin60 × 15

1589.22 + 1876.163 = 12.99•Nw

3465.383 = 12.99•Nw

Nw = 3465.383 / 12.99

Nw = 266.77 N

Since, Nw = Ff

Then, Ff = 266.77N

the horizontal force exerted by the ground on the ladder is 266.77 N

Answer:

4 capacitors

Explanation:

Given

n = 5 --- conducting plates

Required

The number of capacitor (c)

This is calculated as:

c = n - 1

So, we have:

c = 5 - 1

c = 4
