A circular-motion addict of mass 80 kg rides a Ferris wheel around in a vertical circle of radius 10 m at a constant speed of 6.

1 m/s. (a) What is the period of the motion? What is the magnitude of the normal force on the addict from the seat when both go through (b) the highest point of the circular path and (c) the lowest point?

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass=80 kg

Radius,r=10 m

Speed,v=6.1 m/s

a.Time period,T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}=\frac{2\pi\times 10}{6.1}=10.3 s

b.F_N=mg-\frac{mv^2}{r}

Substitute the values

F_N=80\times 9.8-\frac{80\times(6.1)^2}{10}=486 N

c.F_N=mg+\frac{mv^2}{r}

Substitute the values

F_N=80\times 9.8+\frac{80\times (6.1)^2}{10}=1081.7 N

Rubber rods charged by rubbing with cat fur repel each other. Glass rods charged by rubbing with silk repel each other. A rubber
puteri [66]

Answer:

C. A rubber rod and a glass rod charged this way have opposite charges on them.

Explanation:

When a rubber rod is rubbed against cat fur, it acquires a negative charge, it becomes negatively charged.

When you then try to bring two rubber rod's together, they repel because like charges repel.

Meanwhile, when you rub a glass rod against silk, it loses electrons to the silk material and becomes positively charged.

When you bring two positively charged glass rod's together, they repel, because like charges repel.

However, when you bring the rubber rod and a glass rod together, the attract each other because unlike/opposite charges attract.

A person is trying to lift a crate that has a mass of 30 kg. The normal force of the floor is currently supplying 150N of force.
alexdok [17]

Here when an object is placed on the level floor then in that case there are two forces on the object

1). Weight of object downwards (mg)

2). Normal force due to floor which will counterbalance the weight (N)

so when no force is applied on the box at that time normal force is counter balanced by weight.

Now here it is given that A person tried to lift the box upwards

So now there are two forces on the box

1). Applied force of person

2). Normal force due to ground

So now these two forces will counter balance the weight of the crate

So we can write an equation for force balance like

F_g = F_n + F_a

given that

F_g = mg

here

m = 30 kg and

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s^2

F_n = 150 N

now from above equation

30*10 = 150 + F_a

F_a = 300 - 150 = 150 N

So force applied by the person must be 150 N

How quickly do muscles become fatigued?​
agasfer [191]

Answer:

Fatigue is usually defined as the reversible decline of performance during activity, and most recovery occurs within the first hour. However, there is also a slowly reversible component that can take several days to reverse (155). Muscle injury also causes a decline in performance that reverses only very slowly.
