When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth. If the muscle generates a force of 49.

Answer:

1.1397 Nm

Explanation:

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth.

If the muscle generates a force

F =  49.5 N and r = 2.65 cm , then the torque is equal to rF

we see that r = 2.65 cm = 0.0265 m

therefore

torque = 0.0265 x 49.5

= 1.1397 Nm

El trabajo hecho por la gravedad durante el descenso de un proyectil es:
Ket [755]

Answer:

<h2>a) positivo.</h2>

Explanation:

The question is

The work done by gravity during a projectile decline is:

a) Positive.

b) Negative.

c) Zero.

d) Depends on y-axis direction.

e) Depends on x-axis direciton.

Remember that Work is defined as the energy needed to move an object. Mathematically, it's the product between the force exerted and the displacement. That means if we don't have any displacement, then there's no work.

In this case, we are talking about the work done by the gravity force. When a projectile goes down, it's because of the gravity force, which means it can't be zero.

Specifically, the work done by gravity is positive, because when the projectile is going down, it's getting closer to the atracttive mass, which is Earth.

Therefore, the right answer is a.

Think about what subsequently happens to the ketchup, which is initially at rest, and use newton's first law to explain why this
Vika [28.1K]

Newton's first law of ketchup is  if the bottle of ketchup is smacked upward, the contents (the ketchup) will tend to remain in place, and it will be closer to the opening in the bottle.

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

If we are trying to get ketchup out of the bottle, the best way to do it is to turn the bottle upside down and give the bottle a upward smack which force the bottle rapidly upward.

Newton first law said that every object tries to continue in its state of rest or uniform motion unless an external force acted upon it (In an inertial frame of reference, an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by a force).   Newton first law describe the relationship between a body and the forces acting upon it, and its motion in response to those forces.

Inertia explained by Sir Isaac Newton in his first law of motion (Newton law of motion). The law states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object continues its state of motion until an external force acts on it. The examples are one's body movement to the side when a car makes a sharp turn

Please guys i need help in this
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

We have the equation V = at  (speed = acceleration x time)

We want to find the time, so can rearrange to T = V/a (time = speed / acceleration).

From the question, we know V is 5 and a is 0.5.

Now we can substitute that into our equation: 5/0.5 = 10.

So the time is 10 seconds.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

The vibrations along a transverse wave move in a direction _________.
GrogVix [38]

Answer: perpendicular to it oscillations.

Explanation: A transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.

By perpendicular, we mean that the wave is oscillating on the vertical axis (y) of a Cartesian plane and the vibration is along the horizontal axis (x) of the plane.

Examples of transverse waves includes wave in a string, water wave and light.

Let us take a wave in a string for example, you tie one end of a string to a fixed point and the other end is free with you holding it.

If you move the rope vertically ( that's up and down) you will notice a kind of wave traveling away from you ( horizontally) to the fixed point.

Since the oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of wave, it is a transverse wave
