<span>= 5.5kg (9.80N/kg) 
=</span><span> mgCos12degrees 
Hope this answer helps. </span>

Answer:

(a) 53.9 N

(b) 52.72 N

(c) 48.85 N

(d) 38.11 N

Explanation:

The normal force is always perpendicular to the surface.

(a) the normal force = m x g = 5.5 x 9.8 = 53.9 N

(b) Normal force = m x g x CosФ = 5.5 x 9.8 x Cos 12 = 52.72 N

(c) Normal force = m x g x CosФ = 5.5 x 9.8 x Cos 25 = 48.85 N

(d) Normal force = m x g x CosФ = 5.5 x 9.8 x Cos 45 = 38.11 N

Two insulated wires, each 2.50 m long, are taped together to form a two-wire unit that is 2.50 m long. One wire carries a curren
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

3.46 A

Explanation:

The force (F) exerted on a wire of a particular length (L) carrying current (I) through a magnetic field (B) at an angle (θ) to the magnetic field is given as

F = (B)(I)(L) sin θ

F = 3.13 N

B = 0.360 T

I = ?

L = 2.50 m

θ = 79°

3.13 = (0.360 × I × 2.5 × sin 79°)

0.8835 I = 3.13

I = 3.54 A

But this is the resultant current in this magnetic field.

Since the two wires are conducting current in opposite directions,

Resultant current = 7 - (current in the other wire)

Current in the other wire = 7 - 3.54 = 3.46 A

goblinko [34]

Answers with Explanations:

1. Answer: True

Explanation:

Muscle cramps happen especially during an <em>"intense workout."</em> The frequency of cramps is related to heat, thus it is important to<u> stay hydrated</u> all throughout the workout. Eating should be done<em> at least 2 to 3 hours</em> <em>prior to workout</em> because eating immediately before exercise leads to undigested food. Such kind of food causes cramps.

2. Answer: True

Explanation: Applying direct pressure immediately after the injury can help <em>decrease bleeding.</em> Blood loss results to <u>blood that is collected under the skin. </u>This turns into the color of blue or black, also known as "bruise." Decrease bleeding would then mean decrease bruising.

Applying pressure also <em>decreases swelling </em>because it restricts the blood flow and fluid from reaching into the injury.

3. Answer: False

Explanation: "Lordosis" refers to the body's<em> natural lordotic curve</em>. This is considered "normal." The excessive inward curve of the lumbar spine is called "hyperlordosis." This is commonly caused by<u> poor posture, lack of exercise, obesity and spinal conditions.</u>

4. Answer: False

Explanation: The mnemonic acronym "RICE" stands for<em> Rest, Ice, Compression</em><em> (not Cold)</em> and<em> Elevation</em>. This term is commonly used in First Aid and was introduced by Gabe Mirkin in 1978.

5. Answer: True

Explanation: Keeping the proper posture during exercise <u><em>prevents the body from encountering injuries</em></u>. It also ensures that the body is executing the exercise by<u> using the muscles properly.</u>

6. Answer: False

Explanation: "Ice" is important in<em> decreasing the swelling of the injury</em>. It constricts the blood vessels which prevents the flow of blood and other fluids towards the site of injury.

7. Answer: False

Explanation: The spine is naturally straight if a person doesn't have a medical problem. However, scoliosis is a medical problem. It is <u>a condition wherein a person's spine is </u><u>curved</u>, rather than being straight.

8. Answer: True

Explanation: When it comes to exercise,<em> starting slow</em> is the main key. It is followed by<u> gradual building up.</u> The increase will depend on the person's stamina. For example, <em>starting with a warm-up, followed by a slow walk then pacing up to a brisk walk.</em>

9. Answer: True

Explanation: Kyphosis is a spinal condition wherein the person's spine is <em>excessively curved outward.</em> This causes the upper back and the shoulders to be rounded. This condition is commonly called "hunchback."

10. Answer: True

Explanation: Proper posture entails the right amount of spinal curve. This means that the spine is in "neutral position." This means that the spine takes on the "S-shape." A little amount of curve results to a<em> "flat back</em>" while too much curve results to a <em>"swayback</em>."

11. Answer: all of the above

Explanation: Body posture and technique are important especially when it comes to exercise. Poor posture and technique lead to strain on joints, ligaments and injury especially to the muscles. This also puts the body out of alignment.

12. Answer: True

Explanation: Stretching is appropriately done at the<u> end of a warm-up</u> when the temperature has increased because at this time, the muscles are already flexible. It allows the muscles to be loosened and also aids in better performance during workouts or exercises.

13. Answer: False

Explanation: "Lifting" with your back only will result to muscle injury. There are several ways to do lifting such as "pull-ups" or "lat pull downs." This means that you are not lifting with your back only but using your other joints and muscles for lifting.

14. Answer: True

Explanation: "Warming-up" is an essential preparation before any workout because it prepares the body by<em> increasing temperature</em> and <em>blood flow to the muscles</em>. Without it, the muscles will become sore and the chance for injuries increases.

15. Answer: True

Explanation: "Cool down" is considered equally important as "warm-up." <u>It lowers the body's temperature </u>and lowers the amount of lactic acid that causes<u> muscle cramping, soreness and stiffness.</u>

16. Answer: True

Explanation: It is said that<em> most people forget about warming up and cooling down before and after they work out</em>. It is necessary to have 5 to 10 minutes of warm-up and cool down for every exercise routine.

17. Answer: False

Explanation: Knee extension is <em>best done at 90 degrees angle</em> as advised by most health experts. However, it depends on your capability and your exercise goals. For some people, <u>extending beyond 90 degrees is beneficial.</u>

18. Answer: True

Explanation: Tucking your belly button helps with your body's core exercise. If this is going to be done throughout the day, then surely it will strengthen the muscles. This can be done while a person is sitting down or walking.

Newton's _____law states that when one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object always exerts a force back on
Nina [5.8K]
<h2>Answer:Third</h2>

Explanation:

Newton's third law states that every action force has a equal and opposite reaction force.

Example 1:

Consider yourself hitting a wall with your hand,you are exerting a force on the wall but still you feel hurt because the wall exerts same force on your hand in opposite reaction.

Example 2:

Consider yourself standing on ground.You are exerting force on ground.But how are you able to stand on ground even if your mass is forcing you to go down?The answer is normal reaction force.The ground exerts a force on your feet which makes you to stand still.

A stone is dropped from a tower 100 meters above the ground. The stone falls past ground level and into a well. It hits the wate
ELEN [110]

A useful formula that gives the free-fall distance from rest in 'T' seconds:

                       D = (1/2 G) x (T²)

      G = 9.81 m/s²
1/2 G = 4.905 m/s²

                       D (5 seconds) = (4.905 m/s²) x (5 sec)²

                                              = (4.905 m/s²) x (25 sec²)

                                              =        122.625 meters .

Since the tower-top is 100m above ground,
the depth of the well, to the top of the water,
accounts for the additional  22.625 meters.

My question is:  How do you know exactly when the stone hit the water ?

You probably stood at the top of the well and listened for the
sound of the 'plop'.  But it took some time after the stone hit
the water for the sound of the plop to come back up to you. 
Well, can't you just subtract that time ?  Yes, but you need
to know how much time to subtract.  That depends on the
depth of the well ... which is exactly what you're trying to
determine, so you don't know it yet.

Oh well.  That's a deep subject.
