A gymnast's backflip is considered more difficult to do in the layout (straight body) position than in the tucked position. Why?

- The body's rotational inertia is greater in layout position than in tucked position. Because the body remains airborne for roughly the same time interval in either position, the gymnast must have much greater kinetic energy in tucked position to complete the backflip. - The body's rotational inertia is greater in tucked position than in layout position.

Answer:

The body's rotational inertia is greater in layout position than in tucked position. Because the body remains airborne for roughly the same time interval in either position, the gymnast must have much greater kinetic energy in layout position to complete the backflip.

Explanation:

A gymnast's backflip is considered more difficult to do in the layout (straight body) position than in the tucked position.

When the body is straight , its moment of rotational inertia is more than the case when he folds his body round. Hence rotational inertia ( moment of inertia x angular velocity ) is also greater. To achieve that inertia , there is need of greater imput of energy in the form of kinetic energy  which requires greater effort.

So a gymnast's backflip is considered more difficult to do in the layout (straight body) position than in the tucked position.

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

a)    L = 3.29 10⁻⁴ H,  b)U = 5.33 10⁻²  J

Explanation:

a) The inductance is a solenoid this given carrier

           L = \frac{N \ \phi_B }{I}

The magnetic field inside the solenoid is

          B = μ₀ \frac{N}{l}  i

hence the magnetic flux

          Ф_B = B. A = μ₀ \frac{N \ A}{l \ i}

we substitute in the expression of inductance

          L = N² μ₀ A /l

let's find the area of ​​each turn

          A = π r²

         A = π 0.02²

         A = 1.2566 10⁻³ m²

let's calculate

          L = 250² 4π 10⁻⁷ 1.2566 10⁻² / 0.3

          L = 3.29 10⁻⁴ H

b) The stored energy is

           U = ½ L i²

let's calculate

            U = ½ 3.29 10⁻⁴ 18²

            U = 5.33 10⁻²  J

A force of 60 N is applied to a skier to pull him along a horizontal surface so that his speed remains constant. If the coeffici
matrenka [14]

Answer:

1200\ \text{N}

Explanation:

F = Force on the skier = 60 N

\mu = Coefficient of friction = 0.05

w = Weight of skier

Force is given by

F=\mu w

\Rightarrow w=\dfrac{F}{\mu}

\Rightarrow w=\dfrac{60}{0.05}=\dfrac{6000}{5}

\Rightarrow w=1200\ \text{N}

Weight of the skier on which the force is being applied is 1200\ \text{N} .
