A weightlifter works out at the gym each day. Part of her routine is to lie on her back and lift a 43 kg barbell straight up fro

m chest height to full arm extension, a distance of 0.53 m .
Part A: How much work does the weightlifter do to lift the barbell one time?
Part B: If the weightlifter does 23 repetitions a day, what total energy does she expend on lifting, assuming a typical efficiency for energy use by the body?
Part C: How many 500 Calorie donuts can she eat a day to supply that energy?

Answer:

A) Workdone = 223.57 N-m

B) 22357 J of energy

C) Number of donuts = 10.7 donuts

Explanation:

A) The work done is calculated from the formula;. Work done = Force × Distance

We are given;

Mass; m = 43 kg

Distance = 0.53 m

Force(weight) = mg = 43 × 9.81

Thus;

Work done = 43 × 9.81 × 0.53

Workdone = 223.57 N-m

B) We are told she does 23 repetitions a day.

Thus, we assume 23% efficiency.

So, Work = Energy

Thus;

At 100% efficiency;

Energy = (223.57/100%) × 23 repetitions = 5142.11 J

Now, since she is only 23% efficient, she will expend; 5142.11/0.23 J = 22357 J of energy to do 5390 J of work.

C) from conversions; 4.18 J = 1 calorie

Thus;

22357 J ÷ 4.18 J/cal = 5348.565 calories

We how many 500 calorie donuts she can eat in a day to supply that energy.

Thus;

Number of donuts = 5348.565 cal ÷ 500 cal /donut

Number of donuts = 10.7 donuts

Firdavs [7]

Answer: A.E.

Explanation: To understand the distinction between mass and weight and to be able to calculate the weight of an object from its mass and Newton's law of gravitation. The concepts of mass and weight are often confused. In fact, in everyday conversations, the word "weight" often replaces "mass," as in "My weight is seventy-five kilograms"

If =12a andthe distance from each wire to point p is 0.12m, then what is the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on
vaieri [72.5K]

The magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire is

2×10⁻⁵  N/m

<h3>How can we calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire ?</h3>

To calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire, we are using the formula

F= \frac{\mu_0 I_f}{2\pi d}

Here we are given,

\mu_0= magnetic permeability

= 4\pi×10⁻⁷ H m⁻¹

If= 12 A

d= distance from each wire to point.

=0.12m

Now we put the known values in the above equation, we get

F= \frac{\mu_0 I_f}{2\pi d}

Or, F = \frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times  12}{2\pi \times 0.12}

Or, F= 2×10⁻⁵ N/m.

From the above calculation, we can conclude that the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire is 2×10⁻⁵ N/m.

A 500kg car is driving through a neighborhood at 20m/s. Then the car hits a speed bump which causes it to slow to 15m/s. What wa
lawyer [7]

Based on the formula for calculating impulse, the impulse of the speed bump to the car is 2500 Ns.

<h3>What is the impulse of the speed bump?</h3>

  • Impulse = change in momentum
  • momentum = mass * velocity

Change in momentum = mu - mv

where u is initial velocity

v is final velocity

Impulse = 500 * 20  - 500 * 15

Impulse = 2500 Ns

Therefore, the impulse of the speed bump to the car is 2500 Ns.
