A boxer can hit a heavy bag with great force. Why can't he hit a piece of tissue paper in midair with the same amount of force?

Physics

12345 [234]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

This is due to impulse

Explanation:

Impulse equal to mΔv and FΔt

You can set these equal as mΔv = FΔt

When a boxer punches a tissue, it is like punching a cushion or a pillow. The time that the hit takes is much grater than if they were to hit something solid. In addition, the change in velocity of the boxer's arm would be much greater when they hit a punching bag. In this equation, the greater the time, the less force that is needed.

In which changes of state do atoms lose energy
Anika [276]
             Yeah, it's every state. Atoms need a certain quanta of energy to jump to each state of energy, and therefore change state depending on how much energy is absorbed and/or released. This applies to all states of matter.

How could you test the hypothesis that elephants interpreted the ground signal as being farther away than the air signal?
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

One way to test the hypothesis is to create two waves, one in the air and one on the ground at the same time. One of them for the elephant to get closer and another for the elephants to move away. Observe the reaction of the animal and with this we know which sound came first.

Explanation:

This hypothesis is based on the fact that the speed of sound in air is v = 343 m / s with a small variation with temperature.

The speed of sound in solid soil is an average of the speed of its constituent media, giving values ​​between

 wood      3900 m / s

 concrete 4000 m / s

 fabrics     1540 m / s

 earth       5000 m / s wave S

 ground    7000 m / s P wave

 

we can see that the speed on solid earth is an order of magnitude greater than in air.

One way to test the hypothesis is to create two waves, one in the air and one on the ground at the same time. One of them for the elephant to get closer and another for the elephants to move away. Observe the reaction of the animal and with this we know which sound came first.

From the initial information, the wave going through the ground should arrive first.

If you lift the front wheel of a poorly maintained bicycle off the ground and then start it spinning at 0.69 rev/s , friction in
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

magnitude of the frictional torque is 0.11 Nm

Explanation:

Moment of inertia I = 0.33 kg⋅m2

Initial angular velocity w° = 0.69 rev/s = 2 x 3.142 x 0.69 = 4.34 rad/s

Final angular velocity w = 0 (since it stops)

Time t = 13 secs

Using w = w° + §t

Where § is angular acceleration

O = 4.34 + 13§

§ = -4.34/13 = -0.33 rad/s2

The negative sign implies it's a negative acceleration.

Frictional torque that brought it to rest must be equal to the original torque.

Torqu = I x §

T = 0.33 x 0.33 = 0.11 Nm
