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

What is the frequency of an ocean wave that is traveling at a speed of 45 m/s if it has a wavelength of 3 meters.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 15 Hz      

Explanation:

We have,

Speed of an ocean wave is 45 m/s

Wavelength of a wave is 3 m

It is required to find the frequency of an ocean wave.

Speed of a wave, v=f\lambda, f = frequency of ocean wave

f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{45}{3}\\\\f=15\ Hz

So, the frequency of an ocean wave is 15 Hz.

A 103 kg horizontal platform is a uniform disk of radius 1.71 m and can rotate about the vertical axis through its center. A 68.
Andreyy89

Answer:

I_{total}=220.64 kg*m^{2}

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of the system is equal to the each population and the platform inertia so

Inertia disk

I_{disk}=\frac{1}{2}*m_{disk}*(r_{p})^{2}

Inertia person

I_{p}=\frac{1}{2}*m_{p}*(r_{p})^{2}

Inertia dog

I_{d}=\frac{1}{2}*m_{d}*(r_{d})^{2}

The Inertia of the system is the sum of each mass taking into account that all exert the force of inertia:

I_{total}=I_{disk}+I_{p}+I_{d}

I_{total}=\frac{1}{2}*103kg*(1.71)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}*68.9kg*(1.09)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}*27.7kg*(1.45)^{2}

I_{total}=220.64 kg*m^{2}
