Answer:

Condition of fatigue caused by depletion of glycogen

Explanation:

Let us examine how a body produces energy. There are two ways:

Fat metabolism

Fatty acids in the body help to capture adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which produces energy. On a per gram basis fatty acids yields the most ATP when oxidized completely.

Glycogen breakdown

the enzyme glycogen phosphorylase cleaves glycogen from the non reducing ends to produce monomers of glucose-1-phosphate. These monomers are used by the human body to supply energy.

When a person is exercising his/her VO₂ i.e., the oxygen consumption reaches maximum, here most of the energy comes from glycogen. While exercising most of the energy comes from glycogen breakdown.

So, when Anthony hit the wall it means that he has depleted his source of glycogen and can no longer produce glucose which provides him energy.

What is the resistance of a carbon rod at 25.8 ∘C if its resistance is 0.0200 Ω at 0.0 ∘C ?
torisob [31]

0.02020 ohm is the resistance of a carbon rod at 25.8 ∘C if its resistance is 0.0200 Ω at 0.0 ∘C.

<h3 /><h3>What is a resistor?</h3>

A resistor is an electrical component that controls or restricts how much electrical current can pass across a circuit in an electronic device. A specified voltage can be supplied via resistors to an active device like a transistor.

The temperature of the resistor varies based on the variation in the temperature. The equation that describes the relationship between the two of them is:

R = R0[1+ alpha(T-T0)]  where:

R is the new resistance we are looking for

alpha is the temperature coefficient of resistance. For carbon rod, alpha = ₋ 4.8 x 10^{-4}(1/°c)

T0 is the standard temperature =25.8°C

R0 is the resistance at T0 = 0.0200 ohms

T is the temperature at which we want to get R = 0

Substitute in the equation to get R as follows:

R = 0.0200 [1+( ₋ 4.8 x 10^{-4}) (0-25.8)] = 0.02020 ohm

The bob of a pendulum swings back and forth with a total mechanical energy of 300 J. What is the kinetic energy of the bob when
zhenek [66]

at the lowest point in the trajector, the kinetic energy of the bob is 300 J.

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of the bob at any point of its motion is given by

E=KE+PE

Where

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 is the kinetic energy, where

m is the mass of the bob

v is its speed

PE=mgh is the gravitational potential energy, where

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the bob, measured with respect to the lowest point of the trajector

In absence of friction, the total mechanical energy E remains constant. So we have:

- When the bob swings upward, the PE increases (because h increases) and the KE decreases (so the speed decreases). At the highest point in the trajector, the speed of the bob is zero (v=0), so its KE is also zero and all the mechanical energy is potential energy: U = 300 J

- When the bob swings downward, the PE decreases (because h decreases) and the KE increases (so the speed increases). At the lowest point in the trajectory, the height has become zero (h=0), so the PE is zero and all the mechanical energy is kinetic energy: KE = 300 J

Therefore, at the lowest point in the trajector, the kinetic energy of the bob is 300 J.

A 1.5-kg ball is throw at 10 m/s. What is the balls momentum?
alexdok [17]

Answer : The momentum of ball is, 15 kg.m/s

Explanation :

Momentum : It is defined as the motion of a moving body. Or it is defined as the product of mass of velocity of an object.

Formula of momentum is:

where,  

p = momentum  = ?

m = mass  = 1.5 kg

v = velocity = 10 m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

Therefore, the momentum of ball is 15 kg.m/s
