Answer:

2677.3 N

Explanation:

v₀ = initial speed of the hand = 4.75 m/s

v  = final speed of the hand = 0 m/s

m = Total mass of hand and forearm = 1.55 kg

t = time interval for hand to come to rest = 2.75 ms = 0.00275 s

F = Force applied on the leg

Using Impulse-change in momentum equation

F t = m (v - v₀)

F (0.00275) = (1.55) (0 - 4.75)

F = - 2677.3 N

magnitude of force = 2677.3 N

Estimate the number of times the earth will rotate on its axis during a human’s lifetime
Fudgin [204]

Here we have to calculate  the number of rotations made by earth around its own axis in the entire life time of a human being.

The average human life is 50 years .

Each year is 365.5 days

Hence 50 years =50 *365.5 days

                 =18,275 days

The earth rotates around its own axis in 23 hours 56 minutes and 4 second which is approximately equal to 24 hours or one days.

Hence one rotation takes one days.

⇒18,275 days =18,275 rotations

Hence the total number of rotations made by earth around its own axis in the life time of a average human life time will be 18,275 times

In a redox reaction the substance that accepts electrons is said to be
netineya [11]
The question "<span>In a redox reaction the substance that accepts electrons is said to be?" is a bit vague. By definition, a "redox" or "reduction" reaction is one where classified by a gain of electrons. On the other hand, if it is a loss of electrons, then it is an oxidation reaction.</span>

An object of mass, m1 with a velocity, v1 collides with another object at rest (v2 = 0) with a mass, m2. After the collision, m1
goblinko [34]

Answer:

v"_{1} = v_{1} tanΘ

v^{"} _{2} = \frac{m_{1}v_{1}}{m_{2}cos}Θ

Θ = tan^{-1}(\frac{v^{"} _{1} }{v_{1} } )

Explanation:

Applying the law of conservation of momentum, we have:

Δp_{x = 0}

p_{x} = p"_{x}

m_{1}v_{1} = m_{2}v"_{2} cosΘ (Equation 1)

Δp_{y} = 0

p_{y} = p"_{y}

0 = m_{1} v"_{1} - m_{2} v"_{2} sinΘ (Equation 2)

From Equation 1:

v"_{2} = \frac{m_{1}v_{1}}{m_{2}cos}Θ

From Equation 2:

m_{2} v"_{2}sinΘ = m_{1} v_{1}

v"_{1} = \frac{m_{2} v"_{2}sinΘ}{m_{1} }

Replacing Equation 3 in Equation 4:

v"_{1}=\frac{m_{2}\frac{m_{1}v_{1}}{m_{2}cosΘ}sinΘ}{m_{1}}

v"_{1}=v_{1}\frac{sinΘ}{cosΘ}

v"_{1}=v_{1}tanΘ (Equation 5)

And we found Θ from the Equation 5:

tanΘ=\frac{v"_{1}}{v_{1}}

Θ=tan^{-1}(\frac{v"_{1}}{v_{1}})
