To develop muscle tone, a woman lifts a 2.50 kg weight held in her hand. She uses her biceps muscle to flex the lower arm throug

h an angle of 60.0°.What is the angular acceleration (in rad/s2) if the weight is 24.0 cm from the elbow joint, her forearm has a moment of inertia of 0.250 kg · m2, and the net force she exerts is 550 N at an effective perpendicular lever arm of 2.10 cm? (Ignore gravity)How much work (in J) does she do?

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Torque as a function of the Force in proportion to the radius to which it is applied. In turn, we will use the concepts of energy expressed as Work, and which is described as the Torque's rate of change in proportion to angular displacement:

\tau = Fr

Where,

F = Force

r = Radius

Replacing we have that,

\tau = Fr

\tau = 21cm (\frac{1m}{100cm})* 550N

\tau = 11.55Nm

The moment of inertia is given by 2.5kg of the weight in hand by the distance squared to the joint of the body of 24 cm, therefore

I = 0.25Kg\cdot m^2 +(2.5kg)(0.24m)^2

I = 0.394kg\cdot m^2

Finally, angular acceleration is a result of the expression of torque by inertia, therefore

\tau = I\alpha \rightarrow \alpha = \frac{\tau}{I}

\alpha = \frac{11.55}{0.394}

\alpha = 29.3 rad/s^2

PART B)

The work done is equivalent to the torque applied by the distance traveled by 60 °° in radians (\pi / 3), therefore

W = \tau \theta

W = 11.5* \frac{\pi}{3}

W = 12.09J

Explanation:

formula: <u>Mass</u>

Density x volume

2a) m=10kg v=0.3m³

10÷0.3=33.3 kg/m

2b) m = 160 kg V=0.1m³

160÷0.1=1600 kg/m

2c) m = 220 kg V = 0.02m³

220÷0.02=11000 kg/m

A wooden post has a volume of 0.025m³ and a mass of 20kg. Calculate its density in kg/m.

density = volume ÷ mass

20÷ 0.025=800 kg/m

Challenge: A rectangular concrete slab is 0.80m long, 0.60 m wide and 0.04m thick. Calculate its volume in m³.

Formula : Length x width x height = Volume

0.80 x 0.60 x 0.04 = 0.0192m³

B) The mass of the concrete slab is 180 kg. Calculate its density in kg/m.

density = volume ÷ mass

180 ÷ 0.0192 = 9375 kg/m

During a particular thunderstorm, the electric potential difference between a cloud and the ground is vcloud - vground = 3.50 10
wariber [46]
<span>The change in the electron's potential energy is equal to the work done on the electron by the electric field. The electron's potential energy is the stored energy relative to the electron's position in the electric field. Vcloud - Vground represents the change in Voltage. This voltage quantity is given to be 3.50 x 10^8 V, with the electron at the lower potential. The formula for calculating the change in the electron's potential energy (EPE) is found by charge x (Vcloud - Vground) = (EPEcloud - EPE ground) where charge is constant = 1.6 x 10^-19. Filling in the known quantities results in the expression 1.6 x 10^-19 (3.50 x 10^8) = (EPEcloud - EPEground) = 5.6 x 10^-11. Therefore, the change in the electron's potential energy from cloud to ground is 5.6 x 10^-11 joules.</span>
