The total mass of the arm shown in is 2.6 kg. Determine the force, F_M required of the "deltoid" muscle to hold up the outstretc

hed arm. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Determine the magnitude of the force F_J exerted by the shoulder joint on the upper arm. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Determine the angle between the positive x axis and the force F_J, measured clockwise. Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answer:

Fm = 51N and Fj = 26N

Summing the moments about the shoulder joint

Sum of anticlockwise moments = sum of clockwise moments

Fm x 12 = mg x 24

Fm = 2.6 x 9.8 × 24/12

Fm = 51N

Summing the forces acting on the arm

Sum of upward forces = sum of downward forces

Fm = Fj + mg

51 = Fj + 2.6 × 9.8

51 = Fj + 25.48

Fj = 51 - 25.48

Fj = 26N

Explanation:

Newtons first law and the principle of moments have been applied in solving this problem.

A man ties one end of a strong rope 8.17 m long to the bumper of his truck, 0.524 m from the ground, and the other end to a vert
Kamila [148]

Answer:

2442.5 Nm

Explanation:

Tension, T = 8.57 x 10^2 N

length of rope, l = 8.17 m

y = 0.524 m

h = 2.99 m

According to diagram

Sin θ = (2.99 - 0.524) / 8.17

Sin θ = 0.3018

θ = 17.6°

So, torque about the base of the tree is

Torque = T x Cos θ x 2.99

Torque = 8.57 x 100 x Cos 17.6° x 2.99

Torque = 2442.5 Nm

thus, the torque is 2442.5 Nm.

A 0.68 kg squirrel is resting on a branch 8 meters above the ground. What is the gravitational potential energy of a squirrel? A
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy of a squirrel is 53.312 J.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a squirrel is 0.68 kg

It is placed at a height of 8 m above the ground.

It is required to find the gravitational potential energy of a squirrel. It is possessed by an object due to its position. Its formula is given by :

E=mgh\\\\E=0.68\times 9.8\times 8\\\\E=53.312\ J

So, the gravitational potential energy of a squirrel is 53.312 J.

Calculate the wavelength (in nm) of the blue light emitted by a mercury lamp with a frequency of 6.88 × 1014 Hz. The speed of li
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: 430 nm.

Explanation:

The relation of wavelength and frequency is:

Formula used : \nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

\nu = frequency =6.88\times 10^{14}Hz

\lambda = wavelength  = ?

c = speed of light = 3.00\times 10^{8}m/s

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

6.88\times 10^{14}=\frac{3.00\times 10^{8}m/s}{\lambda}

\lambda=\frac{3.00\times 10^{8}m/s}{6.88\times 10^{14}}=0.43\times 10^{-6}m=430m        (1nm=10^{-9}m)

Thus the wavelength (in nm) of the blue light emitted by a mercury lamp is 430 nm.
