A woman walks into a carpet store wearing high-heeled shoes with a circular heel of diameter 0.987 cm. To the dismay of the stor

e manager, she balances on one heel on an expensive carpet sample. If she has a mass of 53.0 kg, determine the pressure she exerts on the carpet sample.

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Pressure which describes the amount of Force made on an area unit.

Its mathematical expression can be defined as

P = \frac{F}{A}

Where,

F= Force

A = Area

Our values are given as

d = 0.987*10^{-2}m

With the diameter we can find the Area of the circular heel, that is

A = \pi (\frac{0.987*10^{-2}}{2})^2

A = 7.6511*10^{-5}m^2

To find the force by weight we need to apply the Newton's second Law

F = mg

F = 53*9.8

F = 519.4N

Finally the pressure would be

P = \frac{F}{A}

P = \frac{519.4}{7.6511*10^{-5}}

P = 6788566.35Pa

P = 6.788MPa

Therefore the pressure that she exerts on the carpet sample is 6.788Mpa

Which of the following changes will always increase the efficiency of a thermodynamic engine? Choose all correct statements.
Ilya [14]

Answer:B,C,D

Explanation:

Thermodynamic  efficiency is given by

\eta =1-\frac{T_C}{T-H}

\eta efficiency can be increased by Keeping _c constant and increasing T_H

Keeping T_H constant and decreasing T_c

by increasing \Delta T=T_H-T_c

by decreasing \frac{T_C}{T_H} ratio

A ball is projected into the air with 100 j of kinetic energy which is transformed to gravitational potential energy at the top
raketka [301]
<span>when it returns to its original level after encountering air resistance, its kinetic energy is decreased. 
In fact, part of the energy has been dissipated due to the air resistance.

The mechanical energy of the ball as it starts the motion is:
</span>E=K = 100 J
<span>where K is the kinetic energy, and where there is no potential energy since we use the initial height of the ball as reference level.
If there is no air resistance, this total energy is conserved, therefore when the ball returns to its original height, the kinetic energy will still be 100 J. However, because of the presence of the air resistance, the total mechanical energy is not conserved, and part of the total energy of the ball has been dissipated through the air. Therefore, when the ball returns to its original level, the kinetic energy will be less than 100 J.</span>

Answer:

Performance tests can be used to see if an implemented training program is working for the athlete or if the program needs alterations. They can also assess current abilities in specific athletic areas to help the athlete choose what to focus their energy on improving.
