A 75Kg man jumps from a window 1.0m above the sidewalk. If the man falls with his knees and ankles locked, the only cushion for

his fall is an approximately 0.49 cm give in the pads of his feet.
Calculate the average force exerted on him by the ground during this 0.49 cm of travel. This average force is sufficient to cause damage to cartilage in the joints or to break bones.

Answer:

150153.06122 N

Explanation:

m = Mass of person = 75 kg

h = Height of fall = 1 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

F = Force

s = Displacement = 0.49 cm

Potential energy is given by

P=mgh\\\Rightarrow P=75\times 9.81\times 1\\\Rightarrow P=735.75\ J

Work is given by

W=Fs\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{W}{s}\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{735.75}{0.0049}\\\Rightarrow F=150153.06122\ N

The average force exerted is 150153.06122 N

The metal with the highest melting temperature is tungsten which melts at around 3400 K. What is the wavelength of the peak of t
alekssr [168]

Explanation:

It is given that, the metal with the highest melting temperature is tungsten which melts at around 3400 K, T = 3400 K

We need to find the wavelength of the peak of the black body distribution for this temperature. It can be calculated using Wein's displacement law as :

\lambda\times T=k

k is the constant, k=2.89\times 10^{-3}\ m.k

\lambda=\dfrac{k}{T}

\lambda=\dfrac{2.89\times 10^{-3}\ m.k}{3400\ k}

\lambda=8.5\times 10^{-7}\ m

or

\lambda=850\ nm

The wavelength of infrared is from 700 nm to 1 mm. So, the lies in infrared region of the spectrum. Hence, this is the required solution.

List an example of each of the four classes polymers that living things make and use
slamgirl [31]


The four classes of polymers are:

1. Nucleic acids.  Examples are DNA and RNA

2. Protein. Examples are enzymes and hemoglobin

3. Carbohydrates. Examples as starch and glycogen

4. Lipids. Examples are triglycerides and phospholipids

The building blocks of nucleic acids are called bases and there are four types known as Guanine, Adenine, Thymine and Cytosine.

The building blocks of carbohydrates are glucose molecules.

The building blocks of protein are amino acids.

The building blocks of lipids are a combination of fatty acids and glycerol.
