Answer:

g'=63.74\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of the person on Earth, W = 818 N

Weight of a person is given by the following formula as :

W=mg

g is the acceleration due to gravity on earth

m=\dfrac{W}{g}

m=\dfrac{818\ N}{9.8\ m/s^2}

m = 83.46 kg

The mass of an object is same everywhere. It does not depend on the location.

Let W' is the weight of the person on the surface of a nearby planet, W' = 5320 N

g' is the acceleration due to gravity on that planet. So,

g'=\dfrac{W'}{m}

g'=\dfrac{5320\ N}{83.46\ kg}                

g'=63.74\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration due to gravity on that planet is 63.74\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

A.Momentum Equation

m = mass = 75 kg

v = velocity = 18 m/s

P = momentum

Using the momentum equation , momentum is given as

P = mv

P = 75 x 18

P = 1350 kgm/s

A girl weighing 50 kgf wears sandals of pencil heel of area of cross section 1 cm^2, stands on the floor.An elephant weighing 20
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

\boxed{{\boxed{\blue{ 12.5}}}}

Explanation:

Given, for girl : Weight or force;

\rm \: F_1 = 50 \: kgf

Area of both heels;

\rm \: A_1 =  \; 2 ×1 \;  cm^2 = 2  \: cm^2

\rm \: Pressure \:  P_1  =  \cfrac{F_1}{ A_1 }  =  \dfrac{50 \: kgf}{2 \: cm {}^{2} }  = 25 \: kgf \: cm {}^{ - 1}

For elephant, Weight = Force \rm F_2 = 2000 kg•f

Area of 4 feet;

\rm \: A_2  = \; 4 \times 250 \;  cm^2 = 1000 \:  cm^2

\rm \: Pressure \:  P_2 = {F_2}/{A_2} \;  = \cfrac{2 \cancel{0 00 }\:  kgf}{1 \cancel{000} \: cm^2} =  2 \: kgf \: { \:cm}^{- 1}

Now;

\rm  = \dfrac{Pressure \:  Exerted  \: by  \: the \:  Girl}{Pressure  \: exerted  \: by \:  the  \: elephant}

=  \rm \: P_1/P_2

\implies    \rm\cfrac{25 \: kgf \: \: cm {}^{ - 2} }{2 \: kgf \: cm {}^{ - 2} } =  \rm\cfrac{25 \:  \cancel{kgf \: \: cm {}^{ - 2}} }{2 \: \cancel{ kgf \: cm {}^{ - 2}} } = \boxed{12.5}

Thus, the girl's pointed heel sandals exert 12.5 times more pressure P than the pressure P exerted by the elephant.

The ability of your joints and muscles to move in their full range of motion is called
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Dynamic flexibility

Explanation:

Dynamic flexibility can be generally defined as the ability of the body muscles and joints to move in full range of motion. High flexibility in these joints and muscles leads to the decreasing pain and injury in different parts of the body.

Proper warm up exercises are needed to be carried out that involves both the combination of controlling movements and stretching of the body, and this directly enhances the dynamic flexibility of the body.

The athletes and sports persons possesses a good dynamic flexibility of their body as they carry our different types of body exercises.
