When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth. If the muscle generates a force of 43.

5 N and it is acting with an effective lever arm of 1.95 cm , what is the torque that the muscle produces on the wrist

To solve this problem, we must take two important steps. First we will convert all the given units, to international system. Later we will define the torque, which is given as the product between the radius of application of the force and the Force acting on the body. Mathematically the latter is,

\tau = r F

Here,

r = Radius

F = Force

Now the units,

r = 1.95cm = 1.95*10^{-2}m

Replacing,

\tau = (1.95*10^{-2})(43.5N)

\tau = 0.8483N\cdot m

Therefore the torque that the muscle produces on the wrist is 0.85N\cdot m

An 81.5-kg man stands on a horizontal surface.
OLga [1]

Answer:

a)V= 0.0827 m³

b)P=181.11 x 10²  N/m²

Explanation:

Given that

m = 81.5 kg

Density ,ρ = 985 kg/m³

As we know that

Mass = Volume x Density

81.5 = V x 985

V= 0.0827 m³

The force exerted by weight = m g

 F= m g= 81.5 x 10 = 815 N      ( Take ,g= 10 m/s²)

Area ,A= 4.5 x 10⁻² m²

The Pressure P

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

P = \dfrac{815}{4.5\times 10^{-2}}\ N/m^2

P=181.11 x 10²  N/m²

A 70.9-kg boy and a 43.2-kg girl, both wearing skates face each other at rest on a skating rink. The boy pushes the girl, sendin
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of boy m_b=70.9\ kg

mass of girl m_g=43.2\ kg

speed of girl after push v_g=4.64\ m/s

Suppose speed of boy after push is v_b

initially momentum of system is zero so final momentum is also zero because momentum is conserved

P_i=P=f

0=m_b\cdot v_b+m_g\cdot v_g

v_b=-\frac{m_g}{m_b}\times v_g

v_b=-\frac{43.2}{70.9}\times 4.64  

v_b=-2.82\ m/s

i.e. velocity of boy is 2.82 m/s towards west
