Calculate the hydrostatic difference in blood pressure between the brain and the foot in a person of height 1.93 m. The density

of blood is 1.06 × 103 kg/m3.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given: Density of blood = 1.03 × 10³ Kg/m³, Height =  1.93 m g = 9.8 m/s²

pressure at the brain is equal to atmospheric pressure. = Hydro-static

pressure(ρ₀)

∴ pressure of the foot = pressure of the brain(ρ₀) + ( density of blood × acceleration due to gravity × height)(ρgh)

Hydro-static pressure = pressure at the feet- pressure at the brain(ρ₀)

Hydro-static pressure (Δp) = (ρgh + ρ₀) - ρ₀ = ρgh

Hydro-static pressure = 1.03 × 10³ × 9.8 × 1.93 = 1.948 × 10⁴ Pa

∴  Hydro-static pressure ≈ 1.95 × 10⁴ Pa

A 0.45kg baseball is pitched towards home plate at 20 m/s. The ball is hit back towards the pitcher with a speed of 30 m/s. What
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

4.5kgm/s

Explanation:

Change in momentum is expressed as

Change in momentum = m(v-u)

M is the mass

V is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

Given

m=0.45kg

v = 30m/s

u = 20m/s

Substitute

Change in momentum = 0.45(30-20)

Change in momentum = 0.45×10

Change in momentum = 4.5kgm/s

Consider an alien on a planet with an acceleration of gravity equal to 20 m/sec^2. If the alien's mass is 10 kg, how much does t
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

the weight of alien is 200 newtons

Explanation:

The computation of the alien weight is shown below:

Given that

Acceleration = 20m/sec^2

And, the mass is 10 kg

So, the weight of alien is

= 20 × 10

= 200 newtons

hence, the weight of alien is 200 newtons

A book sitting on a table is moved horizontally. Describe the
Akimi4 [234]

Frictional force and Applied force has same “magnitude” and “opposite” direction.  

Option: B  

<u>Explanation</u>:  

When a book is moved horizontally by applying “force” on the book, the frictional force is opposed to the book by the table. Here, this “frictional force” is opposing the book has the same force what we applied on the book but this frictional force and the applied force are opposite in direction. Always the “frictional force” is opposite to the “applied force” which stops the object to move. For example, if a force applied leftward to the object the frictional force is acted on the right side of the object.

When two objects are in contact they experience a "frictional force". This "frictional force" acts opposite to the force applied on to move the object.

Formula for "frictional force" is \mu\times N

Where, \mu is coefficient of friction and N is normal force.
