The area-

The area under the line in a velocity-time graph represents the distance travelled. To find the distance travelled in the graph above, we need to find the area of the light-blue triangle and the dark-blue rectangle.

Area of light-blue triangle -
The width of the triangle is 4 seconds and the height is 8 meters per second. To find the area, you use the equation: area of triangle = 1⁄2 × base × height so the area of the light-blue triangle is 1⁄2 × 8 × 4 = 16m. Area of dark-blue rectangle The width of the rectangle is 6 seconds and the height is 8 meters per second. So the area is 8 × 6 = 48m. Area under the whole graph The area of the light-blue triangle plus the area of the dark-blue rectangle is:16 + 48 = 64m.This is the total area under the distance-time graph. This area represents the distance covered.

A 129-kg horizontal platform is a uniform disk of radius 1.61 m and can rotate about the vertical axis through its center. A 65.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Moment of inertia of the system is 289.088 kg.m^2

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the platform which is a uniform disk = 129 kg

Radius of the disk rotating about vertical axis = 1.61 m

Mass of the person standing on platform = 65.7 kg

Distance from the center of platform = 1.07 m

Mass of the dog on the platform = 27.3 kg

Distance from center of platform = 1.31 m

We have to calculate the moment of inertia.

Formula:

MOI of disk = $\frac{MR^2}{2}$

Moment of inertia of the person and the dog will be mr^2.

Where m and r are different for both the bodies.

So,

Moment of inertia $(I_y_y )$ of the system with respect to the axis yy.

⇒ $I_y_y=I_d_i_s_k + I_m_a_n+I_d_o_g$

⇒ $I_y_y=\frac{M_d_i_s_k(R_d_i_s_k)^2}{2} +M_m(r_c)^2+M_d_o_g(R_c)^2$

⇒ $I_y_y=\frac{129(1.61)^2}{2} +65.7(1.07)^2+27.2(1.31)^2$

⇒ $I_y_y=289.088\ kg.m^2$

The moment of inertia of the system is 289.088 kg.m^2

Solve for the BMI weight 58kg Height 1.61

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

BMI= weight/(height × height) ; weight in kilogram and height in metter

= 58kg / (1.61m × 1.61m )

= (58/ 2.5921) kg/ $m^{2}$

= 22.375 kg/ $m^{2}$

≈ 22.4 kg/ $m^{2}$

Define relative density

weeeeeb [17]

Hello There!

Relative density is another word for specific gravity. Relative density is comparing the density of one thing to the density of another. Most of the time, you look at the density of water so we look at the density of an object relative to the density of water.
