<u>Answer:</u>

Adaption to stress occurs in three stages: alarm, fight or flight, exhaustion.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the general adaptation syndrome theory proposed by Hans Selye, the adaption to stress occurs in three stages which are:

1. alarm

2. fight or flight

3. exhaustion

This is a process which comprises of three stages that describes the physiological changes which a body undergoes when in stress (an emotional, mental and physical human response to a specific stimulus).

What is the amount of heat, in Sl units, necessary to melt 1 lb of ice?

likoan [24]

Answer:

Heat required to melt 1 lb of ice is 151.469 KJ

Explanation:

We have given mass of ice = 1 lb

We know that 1 lb = 0.4535 kg

Latent heat of fusion for ice =334 KJ/kg

Amount if heat for fusion of ice is given by

$Q=mL$ , here m is mass of ice and L is latent heat of fusion

So heat $Q=mL=0.4535\times 334=151.469kj$

So heat required to melt 1 lb of ice is equal to 151.469 KJ

An athlete performing a long jump leaves the ground at a 27.0 degree angle and lands 7.80m away. What was the takeoff speed?

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

=9.72 m/s

Explanation:

From the Newton's laws of motion;

x=2(v²cos∅sin∅)/g

Using geometry we see that 2 cos∅sin∅ = sin 2∅

Therefore, x= (v²sin 2∅)g, where v is the take off speed x the range and ∅ the launch angle.

Making v the subject of the formula we obtain the following equation.

v=√{xg /(sin 2∅)}

x=7.80

∅=27.0

v=√{7.8×9.8/sin(27×2)}

v=√94.485

v=9.72 m/s

The charge flows in coulombs is

$dq=1.843x10^{-5}C$

Explanation:

The current magnitude of current is given by the resistance and the induced Emf as:

$I=N*\frac{dF}{Rdt}$

$\frac{dq}{dt}=\frac{dF}{Rdt}=dq=N*\frac{dF}{R}$

$dq=\frac{N*\beta*A*(Cos(\alpha_f)-Cos(\alpha_i}{R}$

$N=1300$ , $\beta=0.703$ , $A=\pi*r^2=\pi*0.10^2=0.01\pi m^2$ , $R=99.4+202=301.4$ Ω

$\alpha_f=14.6$ , $\alpha_i=165.4$

Replacing :

$dq=\frac{1300*0.703x10^{-4}*0.01\pi*(0.9667-(-0.9667))}{202+99.4}$

$dq=1.843x10^{-5}C$

A loaded barge has a mass of 1 500 000 kg and is traveling at 3 m/s. If a tugboat applies an opposing force of 12 000 N for 10 s

yan [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial momentum is 1.5e6(3) = 4.5e6 kg•m/s

An impulse results in a change of momentum

The tug applied impulse is 12000(10) = 120000 N•s or 0.12e6 kg•m/s

The remaining momentum is 4.5e6 - 0.12e6 = 4.38e6 kg•m/s

The barge velocity is now 4.38e6 / 1.5e6 = 2.92 m/s

The tug applies 0.012e6 N•s of impulse each second.

The initial barge momentum will be zero in

t = 4.5e6 / 0.012e6 = 375 s or 6 minutes and 15 seconds

To stop the barge in one minute(60 s), the tug would have to apply

4.5e6 / 60 = 75000 N•s /s or 75 000 N
