In a research facility, a person lies on a horizontal platform which floats on a film of air. When the person's heart beats, it

pushes a mass m of blood into the aorta with speed v, and the body and platform move in the opposite direction with speed V. Assume that the blood's speed is 56.5 cm/s. The mass of the person + platform is 54.0 kg. The platform moves 6.30 ✕ 10−5 m in 0.160 s after one heartbeat. Calculate the mass (in g) of blood that leaves the heart. Assume that the mass of blood is negligible compared with the total mass of the person, and the person + platform is initially at rest. (Also assume that the changes in velocity are instantaneous.)

Answer:

Explanation:

Guven:

Mass of person + platform, Mt = 54 kg

= 54000 g

Velocity, Vb = 56.5 cm/s

Distance, D = 6.3 × 10^-5 m

= 6.3 × 10^-3 cm

Time = 0.16 s

V = distance/time

= 6.3 × 10^-3/0.16

= 0.039375 cm/s

From the question,

Mt × V = Mb × Vb

54000 × 0.039375 = Mb × 56.5

Calculating mass of blood,

Mb = 37.63 g

= 37.63 g of blood

Answer: 3.48g

Explanation:

here, we will be using conservation of momentum to solve the problem. i.e the total momentum remains unchanged, unless an external force acts on the system. We'll in thus question, there is no external force acting in the system.

Remember, momentum = mass * velocity, then

mass of blood * velocity of blood = combined mass of subject and pallet * velocity of subject and pallet

Velocity of blood = 56.5cm = 0.565m

mass of blood * 0.565 = 54kg * (0.000063/0.160)

mass of blood * 0.565 = 54 * 0.00039375

mass of blood * 0.565 = 0.001969

mass of blood = 0.00348kg

Thus, the mass of blood that leaves the heart is 3.48g

If the AMA of the inclined plane below is 2, calculate the IMA and efficiency. IMA = Efficiency =
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

IMA = 2.5 metres

EFFICIENCY = 80%

Explanation:

The AMA of a machine is referred to as the Actual Mechanical Advantage of a machine, calculated as the ratio of the output to the input force.

The Ideal Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the input distance to the output distance.

From the diagram, the input distance which is also the distance moved by effort  = 5metres

The load distance (output distance) = 2 metres

IMA = INPUT DISTANCE / OUTPUT DISTANCE

IMA = 5metres / 2 metres = 2.5 meters

Efficiency is the ratio of AMA TO IMA

AMA = 2, IMA = 2.5

EFFICIENCY = AMA / IMA

EFFICIENCY = (2 / 2.5) × 100%= 0.8 × 100%

EFFICIENCY = 80%

Monochromatic light of wavelength 687 nm is incident on a narrow slit. On a screen 1.65 m away, the distance between the second
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a ) 1.267 radian

b ) 1.084 10⁻³ mm

Explanation:

Distance of screen D = 1.65 m

Width of slit d = ?

Wave length of light   λ  = 687 nm.

Distance of second minimum fro centre y = 2.09 cm

Angle of diffraction = y / D

=  2.09 /1.65  

= 1.267. radian

Angle of diffraction of second minimum

= 2 λ / d

so 2 λ / d = 1.267

d = 2 λ / 1.267 = (2 x 687 ) /1.267 nm

=1084.45 nm = 1.084 x 10⁻³ mm.

Why do astronomers use the word on to describe angles on the sky rather than angles in the sky?
Sever21 [200]
<span>The use of the word on instead of the word in when referring to the angular distance between celestial objects comes about because all of the objects appear to be on the celestial sphere and at an indeterminable distance. While we know that objects are at different distances in the sky, their distance from Earth is irrelevant in determining the angular distance between the two objects as viewed from Earth.</span>
