When you lift an object by moving only your forearm, the main lifting muscle in your arm is the biceps. Suppose the mass of a fo

rearm is 1.30 kg . If the biceps is connected to the forearm a distance dbiceps = 3.00 cm from the elbow, how much force Fbiceps must the biceps exert to hold a 850 g ball at the end of the forearm at distance dball = 34.0 cm from the elbow, with the forearm parallel to the floor? How much force Felbow must the elbow exert?

Answer:

The answers to the questions are;

The force the biceps must exert to hold a 850 g ball at the end of the forearm at distance dball = 34.0 cm from the elbow, with the forearm parallel to the floor is 166.77 N Upwards.

The force the elbow must  exert is 145.6785 N downwards.

Explanation:

We are required to analyze the system using the principle of moments as follows.

Mass of forearm = 1.30 kg

Weight of forearm = mass × acceleration due to gravity = 1.30 kg × 9.81  m/s²= 12.753 N

Location of point of action of weight of forearm = midpoint  17 cm

Forearm to biceps distance = 3.00 cm from the elbow.

Mass of the ball = 850 g

Weight of ball = mass × acceleration due  to gravity = 0.850 kg × 9.81 = 8.3385 N

Position of the ball = end of the forearm

Therefore, taking moment about the elbow, we have

∑Mₓ = 0, we take clockwise moment to be positive, therefore

8.3385 N× 34.0 cm + 12.753 N× 17 cm - F_{biceps}×3.00 cm = 0

Therefore F_{biceps}×3.00 cm = 500.31 N cm

Therefore F_{biceps} = (500.31 N·cm)/(3.00 cm) = 166.77 N Upwards

The force exerted by the elbow is given by,

Taking moment about the point of contact between the biceps and the forearm, we get

F_{elbow} × 3.00 cm = 8.3385 N× 31.0 cm + 12.753 N× 14 cm

F_{elbow} = 145.6785 N downwards.

An automobile rounds a curve of radius 50.0 m on a flat road.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

14m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Radius of the curve  = 50m

Centripetal acceleration  = 3.92m/s²

Unknown:

Speed needed to keep the car on the curve = ?

Solution:

The centripetal acceleration is the inwardly directly acceleration needed to keep a body along a curved path.

 It is given as;

      a = \frac{v^{2} }{r}  

a is the centripetal acceleration

v is the speed

r is the radius

  Now insert the parameters and find v;

         v²   = ar

        v² = 3.92 x 50  = 196

         v  = √196 = 14m/s

A vehicle with a manual transaxle can be cranked and started without depressing the clutch pedal. Technician A says the clutch i
SashulF [63]

Answer: Technician B

Explanation: In manual cars,the clutch safety is designed to stop the vehicle from moving when you start the gnition. It prevents power from flowing into the circuit . This is found in the pedal mechanism of cars so depressing the clutch pedal will likely cause a defective in the clutch safety. You will begin to perceive the clutch burning and white fumes coming out from the pedal.

Explain newtons law of motion applied in this game​
kirill [66]

Newton’s first law states that if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.

Newton’s second law is a quantitative description of the changes that a force can produce on the motion of a body. It states that the time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it.

Newton’s third law states that when two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. The third law is also known as the law of action and reaction. This law is important in analyzing problems of static equilibrium, where all forces are balanced, but it also applies to bodies in uniform or accelerated motion.

The first law represented in the game would be the candy. If you blow it, it would move but then stop due to friction.

The second law would be represented by blowing the candy. Since the candy was light, it would be easier to blow but if it was heavier, it would be a lot harder.

The final law represented in the game would be if you decided to blow the candy with a ballon instead, the candy would move the opposite direction the ballon is moving.
