Complete Question
An athlete at the gym holds a 3.0 kg steel ball in his hand. His arm is 70 cm long and has a mass of 4.0 kg. Assume, a bit unrealistically, that the athlete's arm is uniform.
What is the magnitude of the torque about his shoulder if he holds his arm straight out to his side, parallel to the floor? Include the torque due to the steel ball, as well as the torque due to the arm's weight.
Answer:
The torque is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the steel ball is 
The length of arm is 
The mass of the arm is 
Given that the arm of the athlete is uniform them the distance from the shoulder to the center of gravity of the arm is mathematically represented as

=>
=>
Generally the magnitude of torque about the athlete shoulder is mathematically represented as

=> 
=> 
Answer:
Explanation:
a )
momentum of baseball before collision
mass x velocity
= .145 x 30.5
= 4.4225 kg m /s
momentum of brick after collision
= 5.75 x 1.1
= 6.325 kg m/s
Applying conservation of momentum
4.4225 + 0 = .145 x v + 6.325 , v is velocity of baseball after collision.
v = - 13.12 m / s
b )
kinetic energy of baseball before collision = 1/2 mv²
= .5 x .145 x 30.5²
= 67.44 J
Total kinetic energy before collision = 67.44 J
c )
kinetic energy of baseball after collision = 1/2 x .145 x 13.12²
= 12.48 J .
kinetic energy of brick after collision
= .5 x 5.75 x 1.1²
= 3.48 J
Total kinetic energy after collision
= 15.96 J
Answer:
Inhibit the flow of electrons
Explanation:
An electric current usually consists of electrons moving through a wire.
An insulator prevents the flow of an electric current, so it inhibits the flow of electrons.
Answer:
The position of the spring in terms of g, m & k is 
Explanation:
Stiffness of the spring = k
Mass = m
When a mass m is attached with the spring then spring stretched. in that case the force exerted on the spring is equal to weight of the mass attached.
⇒ Force exerted on the spring F = k x
⇒ m g = k x
⇒ 
This is the position of the spring in terms of g, m & k.
