A person slaps her leg with her hand, which results in her hand coming to rest in a time interval of 2.75 ms from an initial spe

ed of 2.25 m/s . What is the magnitude of the average contact force exerted on the leg, assuming the total mass of the hand and the forearm to be 1.65 kg ?

Answer:

1350N

Explanation:

2.75 ms = 2.75*10^{-3}s

The force exerted on the hand would be the momentum divided by the duration of contact.

As the hand is coming to rest, final velocity would be 0

F = \frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t} = \frac{m(0 - v)}{\Delta t} = \frac{1.65*(2.25 - 0)}{2.75 * 10^{-3}} = -1350 N

The magnitude of the force would be 1350N

The step-down transformer gives a current of 10A at 24v if the primary voltage is 240v calculate the
Zepler [3.9K]

You probably do this as a DC circuit which is not quite correct, but it will get you an answer. The study is a great deal more complicated.

Problem One: Secondary Power.

W = E * I

E = 10 A

I = 24V

W = 24 * 10

W = 240 Watts.

Here's the thing you have to know. These transformers are 100% efficient (or are assumed so). So whatever wattage is in the secondary, it is the same as that in the primary.

Primary Power = Secondary Power

Secondary Power = 240 Watts

Primary Power = 240 Watts

W = E * I

E = 240 volts

W = 240 watts

I = W/E = 240 / 240

I = 1 Amp. Answer Part One

Part Two

Answered above. 240 watts.

Part Three

Answered above. 240 watts.

A sprinter accelerates at 7.5 m/s from rest in 2.0 s, what distance did she go? (15 m)
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

<em>The sprinter traveled a distance of 7.5 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Motion With Constant Acceleration </u>

It's a type of motion in which the rate of change of the velocity of an object is constant.

The equation that rules the change of velocities is:

v_f=v_o+at\qquad\qquad [1]

Where:

a   = acceleration

vo = initial speed

vf  = final speed

t    = time

The distance traveled by the object is given by:

\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}\qquad\qquad [2]

Using the equation [1] we can solve for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

The sprinter travels from rest (vo=0) to vf=7.5 m/s in t=2 s. Computing the acceleration:

\displaystyle a=\frac{7.5-0}{2}

a=3.75\ m/s^2

Now calculate the distance:

\displaystyle x=0*2+\frac{3.75*2^2}{2}

\displaystyle x=7.5\ m

The sprinter traveled a distance of 7.5 m

A 17.3 eV electron has a 0.295 nm wavelength. If such electrons are passed through a double slit and have their first maximum at
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

0.541 nm

Explanation:

The condition for maxima is,

dsin\theta=m\lambda

Here, m=0,1,2,.....

And d is the slit separation, m is the order of maxima, \lambda is the wavelength.

Given that, the 17.3 eV electron posses a wavelength of

\lambda=0.295 nm\\\\\lambda=0.295\times 10^{-9}m

And the order of maxima is m=1.

And the angle at which first order maxima occur is,  \theta=33^{\circ}.

Put these values in maxima condition while solving for d.

d=\frac{1\times 0.295\times 10^{-9}m}{sin33^{\circ}} \\d=\frac{0.295\times 10^{-9}m}{0.545} \\d=0.541\times 10^{-9}m}\\d=0.541 nm

Therefore, the slit separation is 0.541 nm.
