A person is sitting with one leg outstretched and stationary, so that it makes an angle of θ = 27.5° with the horizontal, as the

drawing indicates. the weight of the leg below the knee is 40.1 n, with the center of gravity located below the knee joint. the leg is being held in this position because of the force m applied by the quadriceps muscle, which is attached ℓ1 = 0.105 m below the knee joint (see the drawing). obtain the magnitude of m. (assume the angle α = 30.0° and the distance ℓ2 = 0.150 m.

here we will use the torque balance about the knee joint

here we can say that

\tau_g = \tau_m

here torque due to weight is given as

\tau_g = 40.1 cos\theta*(l_1 + l_2)

\tau_g = 40.1 cos27.5*(0.105 + 0.150)

\tau_g = 9.07 Nm

now torque due to applied force of muscle

\tau_m = M*sin\alpha * l_1

\tau_m = M*sin30* 0.105

now by torque balance we will have

9.07 = M*0.5*0.105

M = 173 N

so here the magnitude of m will be 173 N

two objects were lifted by a machine. One object had a mass of 2 kilograms, was lifted at a speed of 2m/sec . The other had a ma
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Object 2 has more kinetic energy

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion, and it is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

In this problem, for object 1:

m = 2 kg

v = 2 m/s

So its kinetic energy is

K_1 = \frac{1}{2}(2)(2)^2=4 J

For object 2,

m = 4 kg

v = 3 m/s

So its kinetic energy is

K_2 = \frac{1}{2}(4)(3)^2=18 J

Therefore, object 2 has more kinetic energy.

All electromagnetic waves travel in vacuum at the speed of c=3×10^8 m/s. Find the wavelength of microwaves of frequency 10^10 Hz
erica [24]
Recall the wave equation, c=f\lambda where c is the speed of the wave (m/s), f is the frequency of the wave (Hz) and λ is the wavelength of the wave (m).

c=f\lambda \Rightarrow \lambda =  \frac{c}{f} so \lambda =  \frac{3 \times 10^8}{10^{10}} = 0.03 \text{m}

A stone is dropped into a well. The sound of the splash is heard 6.25 s later. What is the depth of the well? (Take the speed of
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

depth of well is 163.30 m

Explanation:

Given data

speed of sound = 343 m/s

timer = 6.25 s

to find out

depth of well

solution

let us consider depth d

so equation will be

depth = 1/2 ×g ×t²    ..............1

and

depth = velocity of sound × time    .................2

here we have given time 6.25 that is sum of 2 time

when stone reach at bottom that time

another is sound reach us after stone strike on bottom

so time 1 + time 2 = 6.25 s

so from equation 1  and 2 we get

1/2 ×g ×t² = velocity of sound × time

1/2 ×9.8 × t1² = 343 × (6.25 - t1 )

t1 = 5.77376 sec

so height = 1/2 ×g ×t²

height = 1/2 ×9.8 × (5.773)²

height = 163.30 m
