How is the surface area of an average person is 2m^2 in the chapter pressure

Physics

Answer:

The total atmospheric pressure experienced by the person's whole body is, P = 202650 N/m²

Explanation:

Given data,

The surface area of the person, A = 2 m²

The standard atmospheric pressure is  P = 101325 N/m² (or), Pascal

This is the amount of pressure experienced by 1 m² body at sea level.

If the surface area of the person is, A = 2 m², then the pressure becomes,

                                  P = 2 x 101325 N/m²

                                    = 202650 N/m²

Hence the total atmospheric pressure experienced by the person's whole body is, P = 202650 N/m²

Answer:

We have to show surface area =2m^2,with few conditions that is by considering Force =200000\ N and Pressure =100000\ Pa to be respectively.

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure is =10^{5}\ Pa on Earth's surface.

The magnitude of the force exerted on a person by the atmosphere is =2\times 10^{5}\N (or)\ 200kN\ (or)\ 20\ ton.

Now to calculate surface area we can find it from pressure=\frac{force}{area} and re-arranging it to.

area=\frac{force}{pressure}

So plugging the values,

Surface area =\frac{20000}{10000}=2\ m^{2}

Hence from the above calculations we can say that surface area is 2m^2.

So the surface area of an average person can be said to have 2m^2, using the concept of pressure and force.

A 0.29 kg particle moves in an xy plane according to x(t) = - 19 + 1 t - 3 t3 and y(t) = 20 + 7 t - 9 t2, with x and y in meters
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Part a)

F = 7.76 N

Part b)

\theta = -137.7 degree

Part c)

\theta = -127.7 degree

Explanation:

As we know that acceleration is rate of change in velocity of the object

So here we know that

x = -19 + t - 3t^3

y = 20 + 7t - 9t^2

Part a)

differentiate x and y two times with respect to time to find the acceleration

a_x = \frac{d^2}{dt^2}(-19 + t - 3t^3)

a_x = \frac{d}{dt}(0 +1 - 9t^2)

a_x = -18t

a_y = \frac{d^2}{dt^2}(20 + 7t - 9t^2)

a_y = \frac{d}{dt}(0 +7 - 18t)

a_y = -18

Now the acceleration of the object is given as

\vec a = (-18t)\hat i + (-18)\hat j

at t= 1.1 s we have

\vec a = -19.8 \hat i - 18 \hat j

now the net force of the object is given as

\vec F = m\vec a

\vec F = (0.29 kg)(-19.8 \hat i - 18 \hat j)

\vec F = -5.74 \hat i - 5.22 \hat j

now magnitude of the force will be

F = \sqrt{5.74^2 + 5.22^2} = 7.76 N

Part b)

Direction of the force is given as

tan\theta = \frac{F_y}{F_x}

tan\theta = \frac{-5.22}{-5.74}

\theta = -137.7 degree

Part c)

For velocity of the particle we have

v_x = \frac{dx}[dt}

v_x = (0 +1 - 9t^2)

v_y = \frac{dy}{dt}

v_y = (0 +7 - 18t)

now at t = 1.1 s

\vec v = -9.89\hat i - 12.8 \hat j

now the direction of the velocity is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{v_y}{v_x})

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{-12.8}{-9.89})

\theta = -127.7 degree

A 97 kg man lying on a surface of negligible friction shoves a 62 g stone away from himself, giving it a speed of 2.6 m/s. What
tangare [24]

Answer:

man will move in opposite direction with speed

v_1 = 1.66 \times 10^{-3} m/s

Explanation:

As we know that man is lying on the friction-less surface

so here net force along the surface is zero

so if we take man + stone as a system then net change in momentum of this system will become zero

so here we have

P_i = P_f

0 = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2

here we have

0 = (97)v_1 + 0.062(2.6)

v_1 = -\frac{0.1612}{97}

v_1 = -1.66 \times 10^{-3} m/s
