While exercising in a fitness center, a man lies face down on a bench and lifts a weight with one lower leg by contracting the m

uscles in the back of the upper leg. (a) Find the angular acceleration (in rad/s2) produced given the mass lifted is 12.5 kg at a distance of 28.0 cm from the knee joint. The moment of inertia of the lower leg is 0.900 kg · m2, the muscle force is 1475 N, and its effective perpendicular lever arm is 3.00 cm.

Answer:

\alpha = 5.27 rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given data:

m = 12.5 kg

distancer_w = 28.0 cm = 0.28 m

I = 0.900 kg m^2

force  = 1475 N

lever arm = 3.00 cm = 0.03 m

tau_{net} = I \alpha

\alpha = \frac{\tau_{net}}{I}

\alpha = \frac{F r_m - F_w r_w}{I + m r_w^2}

\alpha = \frac{1475 \times 0.03 - 12.5b\times 9.81 \times 0.28}{0.900  + (12.5 \times 0.28^2)}

\alpha = 5.27 rad/s^2

a solid metal sphere of radius 3.00m carries a total charge of -5.50. what is the magnitude of the electric field at a distance
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

(a) Electric field at 0.250 m is zero.

(b)  Electric field at 2.90 m is zero.

(c) Electric field at 3.10 m is - 5.15 x 10³ V/m.

(d) Electric field at 8.00 m is - 0.77 x 10³ V/m.

Explanation:

Let Q and R are the charge and radius of the solid metal sphere. The solid metal sphere behave as conductor, so total charge Q is on the surface of the sphere.

Electric field inside and outside the metal sphere is :

E = 0 for r ≤ R ( inside )

  = \frac{KQ}{r^{2} } for r > R ( outside )

Here K is electric constant and r is the distance from the center of the metal sphere.

(a) Electric field at 0.250 m is zero as r < R i.e. 0.250 m < 3 m from the above equation.

(b)  Electric field at 2.90 m is zero as r < R i.e. 2.90 m < 3 m from the above equation.

(c) Electric field at 3.10 m is given by the relation as r > R :

E = \frac{KQ}{r^{2} }

Substitute 9 x 10⁹ N m²/C² for K, -5.50 μC for Q and 3.10 m for r in the above equation.

E = - \frac{9\times10^{9}\times5.50\times10^{-6}  }{3.10^{2} }

E = - 5.15 x 10³ V/m

(d) Electric field at 8.00 m is given by the relation as r > R :

E = \frac{KQ}{r^{2} }

Substitute 9 x 10⁹ N m²/C² for K, -5.50 μC for Q and 8.00 m for r in the above equation.

E = - \frac{9\times10^{9}\times5.50\times10^{-6}  }{8^{2} }

E = - 0.77 x 10³ V/m

Using simple language, explain how your demonstration shows the effect of distance on electric forces. Use the terms electric ch
Eddi Din [679]

Explanation:

For a charge concentrated nearly at a point, the electric field is directly proportional to the amount of charge; it is inversely proportional to the square of the distance radially away from the centre of the source charge and depends also upon the nature of the medium.

A 7.7 kg sphere makes a perfectly inelastic collision with a second sphere initially at rest. The composite system moves with a
klemol [59]

Answer:

15.4 kg.

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = V(m+m').................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, V = common velocity of both sphere.

Given: m = 7.7 kg, u' = 0 m/s (at rest)

Let: u = x m/s, and V = 1/3x m/s

Substitute into equation 1

7.7(x)+m'(0) = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7x = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7 = 1/3(7.7+m')

23.1 = 7.7+m'

m' = 23.1-7.7

m' = 15.4 kg.

Hence the mass of the second sphere = 15.4 kg
