onds to a 1 % change in length.
A. Young's modulus for bone is about Y = 1.4 x 10 N/m². The tibia (shin bone) of a human is 0.35 m long and has an average cross-sectional area of 2.9 cm. What is the effective spring constant of the tibia?
B. If a man weighs 750 N, how much is the tibia compressed if it supports half his weight?
C. What is the maximum force that can be applied to a tibia with a cross-sectional area, A = 2.90 cm?

Answer:

a

   k    =  11600000 N/m

b

   \Delta  L  =  3.2323 *10^{-5} \ m

c

  F =  3750.28 \  N  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The Young modulus is  E =  1.4 *10^{10} \  N/m^2

     The length is  L  =  0.35 \ m

      The  area is  2.9 \ cm^2  =  2.9 *10^{-4} \ m ^2

   

Generally the force acting on the tibia is mathematically represented as

       F =  \frac{E *  A  *  \Delta  L }{L}    derived from young modulus equation

Now this force can also be mathematically represented as

      F =  k *  \Delta  L    

So

     k    =  \frac{E *  A  }{L}

substituting values

     k    =  \frac{1.4 *10^{10} *  2.9 *10^{-4}  }{ 0.35}

     k    =  11600000 N/m

    Since the tibia support half the weight then the force experienced by the tibia is  

        F_k  =  \frac{750 }{2}  =  375 \  N

 From the above equation the extension (compression) is mathematically represented as

          \Delta  L  =  \frac{ F_k  *  L  }{ A *  E }        

substituting values

           \Delta  L  =  \frac{  375   *  0.35  }{ (2.9 *10^{-4}) *   1.4*10^{10} }

           \Delta  L  =  3.2323 *10^{-5} \ m

From the above equation the maximum force is  

        F =  \frac{1.4*10^{10} *  (2.9*10^{-4})  *  3.233*10^{-5} }{ 0.35}  

         F =  3750.28 \  N

While accelerating at a constant rate from 12.0 m/s to 18.0 m/s, a car moves over a distance of 60.0 m. how much time does it ta
Yuri [45]

While accelerating at a constant rate from 12.0 m/s to 18.0 m/s, a car moves over a distance of 60.0 m. The time taken by the car will be 4 seconds. the correct answer is option(c).

When acceleration is constant, the rate of change in velocity is also constant. In the absence of any acceleration, velocity remains constant. When acceleration is positive, velocity becomes more significant.

Let a denote acceleration, u denote initial velocity, v denote final velocity, and t denote time.

The equation of motion is stated as,

v = u + at

v² = u² + 2as

A car travels across a distance of 60.0 m while accelerating constantly from 12.0 m/s to 18.0 m/s.

Then the time taken by the car will be,

u = 12 m/s

v = 18 m/s

s = 60 m

Put these in the equation v² = u² + 2as.

18² = 12² + 2 x a x 60

a = 1.5

Then the time will be

18 = 12 + 1.5t

1.5t = 6

t = 4 seconds

Hence, the time taken is 4 s.

The complete question is:

While accelerating at a constant rate from 12.0 m/s to 18.0 m/s, a car moves over a distance of 60.0 m. How much time does it take?

1.00 s

2.50 s

4.00 s

4.50 s

A 22 µF capacitor charged to 0.7 kV and a second 115 µF capacitor charged to 5.5 kV are connected to each other, with the positi
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

0.099C

Explanation:

First, we need to get the common potential voltage using the formula

V=\frac {C_2V_2-C_1V_1}{C_1+C_2}

Where V is the common voltage, C and V represent capacitance and charge respectively. Subscripts 1 and 2 to represent the the first and second respectively. Substituting the above with the following given values then

C_1=22\times 10^{-6} F\\ C_2=115\times 10^{-6} F\\ V_1= 0.7\times 10^{3}\\V_2=5.5\times 10^{3}

Therefore

V=\frac {115\times 10^{-6}\times 5.5\times 10^{3}-22\times 10^{6}\times 0.7\times 10^{3}}{22\times 10^{-6}+115\times 10^{-6}}=4504.3795620437

Charge, Q is given by CV hence for the first capacitor charge will be Q_1=C_1V

Here, Q_1=22\times 10^{-6}\times 4504.3795620437=0.0990963503649C\approx 0.099C

Two 10 kg pucks head straight towards each other with velocities of 10 m/s and -20 m/s. They collide and stick together. Calcula
RUDIKE [14]

The final velocity of the two pucks is -5 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum.

In fact, in absence of external force, the total momentum of the two pucks before and after the collision must be conserved - so we can write:

m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1 +m_2)v

where

m_1 = m_2 = m = 10 kg is the mass of each puck

u_1 = 10 m/s is the initial velocity of the 1st puck

u_2 = -20 m/s is the initial velocity of the 2nd puck

v is the final velocity of the two pucks sticking together

Re-arranging the equation and solving for v, we find:

mu_1 + mu_2 = (m+m)v\\u_1 + u_2 = 2v\\v=\frac{u_1+u_2}{2}=\frac{10-20}{2}=-5 m/s

How are frequency and wave period related?
dedylja [7]
-- The unit of frequency is "per second"  (Hz), which is [reciprocal time].

-- The unit of period is "second", which is [time].

Do you see where this is going ?

'Frequency' and 'period' are reciprocals of each other.

For any wave ...

Period  =  (1) / (frequency) .

Frequency  =  (1) / (period) .
