A ship sailing away from you gradually goes out of sight,
starting from the bottom and moving up the sides of the ship.
The Earth is a sphere. As the ship gets farther away from
you, it's working its way around the curve of the sphere.
Since you can't see around the curve of the Earth, the
lowest point on the ship that you can see moves slowly
up the ship.

A Porsche 944 Turbo has a rated engine power of 217 hp. 30% of the power is lost in the drive train, and 70% reaches the wheels.

shutvik [7]

Answer:

a = 6.53 m/s^2

v = 11.5689 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

engine power is 217 hp

70 % power reached to wheel

total mass ( car + driver) is 1530 kg

from the data given

2/3 rd of weight is over the wheel

w = 2/3rd mg

maximum force

$F = \mu W$

we know that F = ma

$ma = \mu (2/3 mg)$

$a_{max} = 2/3(1.00) (9.8) = 6.53 m/s^2$

the new power is $p = 70\% P_[max} = 0.7 P_{max}$

$P =f_{max} v$

$0.7P_{max} = ma_{max} v$

solving for speed v

$v =0.7 \times \frac{P_{max}}{ma_{max}}$

$v = 0.7 \frac{217 [\frac{746 w}{1 hp}]}{1500 \times 6.53}$

v = 11.5689 m/s

the triceps muscle in the back of the upper arm extends the forearm. this muscle in a professional boxer exerts a force of 2.00×

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer: 0.512 kgm²

Explanation:

Given

Force, F = 2*10^3 N

Angular acceleration, α = 121 rad/s²

Lever arm, r(⊥) = 3.1 cm = 3.1*10^-2 m

τ = r(⊥) * F

Also,

τ = Iα

Using the first equation, we have

τ = r(⊥) * F

τ = 0.031 * 2*10^3

τ = 62 Nm

Now we calculate for the inertia using the second equation

τ = Iα, making I subject of formula, we have

I = τ / α, on substituting, we have

I = 62 / 121

I = 0.512 kgm²

Thus, the moment of inertia of the boxers forearm is 0.512 kgm²

What effect does an unbalanced force have on an object?

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

An unbalanced force can change an object's motion. An unbalanced force acting on a still object could make the object start moving. An unbalanced force acting on a moving object could make the object change direction, change speed, or stop moving.
