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

FinnZ [79.3K]
Impulse = (force) x (time)

The first impulse was (20 N) x (10 sec) = 200 meters/sec

The second one is (50 N) x (time) and we want it equal to the first one, so

(50 N) x (time) = 200 meters/sec

Divide each side by 50N :    Time = 200/50 = <em>4 seconds</em>

By the way, the quantity we're playing with here is the cart's <em>momentum</em>.

A physical quantity X is connected from X = ab2/C. Calculate percentage error in X, when percentage error in a,b,c are 4,2 and 3
Hoochie [10]

Answer: 11%

Explanation:

Given that

X = ab^2/C. Calculate percentage error in X, when percentage error in a,b,c are 4,2 and 3 respectively.

Percentage error of b = 2%

Percentage error of b^2 = 2 × 2 = 4

When you are calculating for percentage error that involves multiplication and division, you will always add up the percentage error values.

Percentage error of X will be;

Percentage error of a + percentage error of b^2 + percentage error of c

Substitute for all these values

4 + 4 + 3 = 11%

Therefore, percentage error of X is 11%

calculating power reach each scenario and then answer the questions scenario a 120 j of work is done in 6 seconds scenario b 160
Molodets [167]

Answer: scenario b and scenario c uses most power

Explanation:

Scenario a:

Work=120J

Time=8 seconds

Power=work ➗ time

Power=120 ➗ 8

Power=15

Power=15 watts

Scenario b:

Work=160J

Time=8 seconds

Power=work ➗ time

Power=160 ➗ 8

Power=20

Power =20 watts

Scenario c:

Work=200J

Time=10 seconds

Power= work ➗ time

Power=200 ➗ 10

Power=20

Power=20 watts

Scenario b and scenario c uses most power
