Answer:

7.41 x 10^-10 J

Explanation:

m = 4.5 kg

M = 6.3 kg

d = 1.7 m

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by

U = \frac{-GMm}{d}

Where, G is the Universal gravitational constant

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

U = \frac{-6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 6.3 \times 4.5}{1.7}

U = - 1.112 x 10^-9 J

Now the separation is tripled, d' = 3 x d = 3 x 1.7 m = 5.1 m

Let the potential energy is U'

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by

U' = \frac{-GMm}{d'}

Where, G is the Universal gravitational constant

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

U' = \frac{-6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 6.3 \times 4.5}{5.1}

U' = - 3.71 x 10^-10 J

the work done is equal to the change in potential energy

W = U' - U

W = - 3.71 x 10^-10 + 1.112 x 10^-9

W = 7.41 x 10^-10 J

Consider a cylindrical segment of a blood vessel 2.70 cm long and 3.10 mm in diameter. What additional outward force would such
Lyrx [107]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

- Calculate the difference in blood pressure between the feet and top of the head of a person who is 1.80m Tall

- Consider a cylindrical segment of a blood vessel 2.70 cm long and 3.10 mm in diameter. What additional outward force would such a vessel need to withstand in the person's feet compared to a similar vessel in her head

Answer:

- the difference in blood pressure is 18698.4 Pa

- the additional outward force F is 4.86 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that the expression for difference in blood pressure is;

ΔP = pgh

where p is density = 1060 kg/m³

g is acceleration due to gravity  = 9.8 m/s²

and h is height = 1.80 m

now we substitute

ΔP = 1060 × 9.8 × 1.80

ΔP = 18698.4 Pa

therefore the difference in blood pressure is 18698.4 Pa

Also given that;

diameter of blood vessel d = 3.10 mm

radius r = 3.10 mm / 2 = 1.55 mm = 0.00155 m

length l = 2.70 cm = 0.027 m

Surface area of the cylindrical segment of a blood vessel is

A = 2πrl

we substitute

A = 2 × π × 0.00155 × 0.027

A = 2.6 × 10⁻⁴ m²

so

the required for will be;

F = PA

we substitute

F = 18698.4 Pa × 2.6 × 10⁻⁴ m²

F = 4.86 N

Therefore, the additional outward force F is 4.86 N

Rita jeptoo of kenya was the first female finisher in the 110th boston marathon. she ran the first 10.0 km in a time of 0.5689 h
stira [4]

Part a

Answer: 17.58 km/h

Average speed=\frac{Total\hspace{1mm}Distance}{Total\hspace{1mm}Time}

Total Distance =10 km

Total time =0.5689 h

\Rightarrow Average speed=\frac{10\hspace{1mm}km}{0.5689\hspace{1mm}h}=17.6 \hspace{1mm}km/h

Part b

Answer: 17.626 km/h

Average speed=\frac{Total\hspace{1mm}Distance}{Total\hspace{1mm}Time}

Total Distance =42.195 km

Total time =2.3939 h

\Rightarrow Average speed=\frac{42.195\hspace{1mm}km}{2.3939\hspace{1mm}h}=17.626\hspace{1mm}km/h
