To solve this problem we will apply the given concept for torque which explains the relationship between the force applied and the distance to a given point. Mathematically this relationship is given as

\tau = F*d \rightarrow F = \frac{\tau}{d}

Where,

\tau = Torque

F = Force

d = Distance

Our values are given as,

\tau = 7.0Nm , d = 0.55m

Therefore replacing we have that the force is

F = \frac{7}{0.55}

F = 12.72N

Therefore the least amount of force that you must exert is 12.72N

A person who weighs 69kg rides with an acceleration of +1.45 m/s2. What is the force exerted by the legs on the person's upper b
trapecia [35]

Answer:

The force exerted by the legs on the person's upper body 32.106 N.

Given:

Mass = 69 kg

Acceleration = 1.45 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

To find:

Force exerted by legs on the person's upper body = ?

Formula used:

Force = mass × acceleration

Solution:

Mass of legs = \frac{32}{100} mass of body

Mass of legs = 22.08 kg

According to Newton's second law of motion,

Force = mass × acceleration

Force = 22.08 × 1.45

Force = 32.106 N

The force exerted by the legs on the person's upper body 32.106 N.

A 10 kg runaway grocery cart runs into a spring with spring constant 250 n/m and compresses it by 60 cm. what was the speed of t
andrew-mc [135]
The initial kinetic energy of the cart is
K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2 (1)
where m is the mass of the cart and v its initial velocity.

Then, the cart hits the spring compressing it. The maximum compression occurs when the cart stops, and at that point the kinetic energy of the cart is zero, so all its initial kinetic energy has been converted into elastic potential energy of the spring:
U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2
where k is the spring constant and x is the spring compression.

For energy conservation, K=U. We can calculate U first: the compression of the spring is x=60 cm=0.60 m, while the spring constant is k=250 N/m, so
U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2= \frac{1}{2}(250 N/m)(0.60 m)^2=45 J

So, the initial kinetic energy of the cart is also 45 J, and from (1) we can find the value of the initial velocity:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 45 J}{10 kg} }  =3 m/s

When working with a powered instrument, the swirling effect produced by the water stream within the confined space of a periodon
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Acoustic microstreaming

Explanation:

Acoustic microstreaming is the swirling effect produced by water stream confined in a spaced of a periodontal pocket.

  • It is the movement of water in a particular direction as a result of mechanical pressure within the fluid body.
  • They are often used in dental procedures to remove particulates from the teeth.
  • It mostly relies on the properties of sound waves to achieve this goal

A girl with a mass of 40 kg is swinging from a rope with a length of 2.5 m. What is the frequency of her swinging?
Dmitrij [34]

For a pendulum with a massless rope 'L' meters long, swinging through
a small arc, the period of the swing is

                     2 π √(L/g)  seconds .

and it doesn't depend on the mass of the thing on the end of the rope ...
that could be a pebble or a bus.

For the girl on the 2.5-m rope,

                   Period = (2 π) √(2.5 / 9.8) =  3.17 seconds

Frequency = 1 / period = about <em> 0.315 Hz .</em>
