7 0

Answer:

My answer is 7.2 km

Explanation:

When Stephen goes to the south and then to the east, he is drawing a right triangle, where the 4 km and 6 km sides are the cathetus of a right triangle.

Then we use the Pithagorean theorem to solve this problem. We need to find the hypotenuse.

c² = a² + b²

c² = 4² + 6²

c² = 16 + 36

c² = 52

c = 7.2 km

A weight lifter is trying to do a bicep curl with a weight of 300 N. At the "sticking point", the moment arm of this weight is 3
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The weight lifter would not get past this sticking point.

Explanation:

Generally torque applied on the weight is mathematically represented as

             T =  F z

To obtain Elbow torque we substitute 4000 N for F (the force ) and 2cm = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02m for z the perpendicular distance

So Elbow Torque is   T_e= 4000 * 0.02

                                   = 80Nm

 To obtain the torque required we substitute 300 N for F and 30cm =\frac{30}{100} = 0.3 m

  So the Required Torque is T_R = 300 *0.3

                                                     =90Nm

Now since   T_e < T_R it mean that the weight lifter would not get past this sticking point
