Answer:

8.9 m NorthEast

Explanation:

a² + b² = c²

8² + 4² = c²

64 + 16 = c²

80 = c²

c = √80

c ≈ 8.9 m NorthEast

A person doing chin-up weighs 700.0 N, disregarding the weight of the arms. During the first 25.0 cm of the lift, each arm exert
dlinn [17]
First, we will get the resultant force:
The direction of the force due to the person's weight is vertically down.
weight of person = 700 newton

Assume that the force exerted by the arms has a vertically upwards direction.
Force exerted by arms = 2*355 = 710 newtons

Therefore, the resultant force = 710 - 700 = 10 newtons (in the vertically upwards direction) 

Now, we will get the mass of the person.
weight = 700 newtons
weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity
700 = 9.8*mass
mass = 71.428 kg

Then we will calculate the acceleration of the resultant force:
Force = mass*acceleration
10 = 71.428*acceleration
acceleration = 0.14 m/sec^2

Finally, we will use the equation of motion to get the final speed of the person.
V^2 = U^2 + 2aS where:
V is the final velocity that we need to calculate
U is the initial velocity = 0 m/sec (person starts at rest)
a is the person's acceleration = 0.14 m/sec^2
S is the distance covered = 25 cm = 0.25 meters

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the final speed as follows:
V^2 = U^2 + 2aS
V^2 = (0)^2 + 2(0.14)(0.25)
V^2 = 0.07
V = 0.2645 m/sec

Based on the above calculations:
The person's speed at the given point is 0.2645 m/sec
