The average human has a density of 945 kg/m3 after inhalation, and 1020 kg/m3 after exhalation. Fresh water has a density of 100

0 kg/3, sea water a density of about 1025 kg/m3, and the Dead Sea (which is actually a lake), a density of about 1230 kg/3. Which of the following statements are true?
a. The human body has nearly the same density as salt water after exhaling.
b. The human body will always float in the Dead Sea.
c.A human would float in fresh water after exhaling

Answer:

a. The human body has nearly the same density as salt water after exhaling.

b. The human body will always float in the Dead Sea.

Explanation:

According to the concept of floating on the basis of  density, any body that is put in a fluid of density greater than its own density will always float due to the force of buoyancy from the liquid.

  • The portion of the object submerged  while the object is floating depends upon the density of the object as compared to the density of the fluid. This is governed by the equation:

\rho_f.V_s=\rho_o.V_o

where:

\rho_f= density of the fluid

\rho_o= density of the object

V_s= volume of the object submerged in the fluid

V_o= total volume of the object

The lubrication of bone joints is a subject of ongoing medical research. Two bones connected at a joint do not touch. The bones
maks197457 [2]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

To measure the effective coefficient of friction in a bone joint, a healthy joint (and its immediate surroundings) can be removed from a fresh cadaver. The joint is inverted, and a weight is used to apply a downward force F⃗ d on the head of the femur into the hip socket. Then, a horizontal force F⃗ h is applied and increased in magnitude until the femur head rotates clockwise in the socket. The joint is mounted in such a way that F⃗ h will cause clockwise rotation, not straight-line motion to the right. The friction force will point in a direction to oppose this rotation.

Draw vectors indicating the normal force n⃗  (magnitude and direction) and the frictional force f⃗ f (direction only) acting on the femur head at point A.

Assume that the weight of the femur is negligible compared to the applied downward force.

Draw the vectors starting at the black dot. The location, orientation and relative length of the vectors will be graded

Solution :

The normal force represented by N is equal to the downward force, $F_d$ which is equal in magnitude but it is opposite in direction.

Also the frictional force acts always to oppose the motion because the bone starts moving in a clockwise direction. The frictional force that will be applied to the right direction so that the movement or the rotation at A is opposed.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

<em>a) 318.2 W/m^2</em>

<em>b) 2.5 x 10^-4 J</em>

<em>c) 1.55 x 10^-8 v/m</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Power of laser P = 1 mW = 1 x 10^-3 W

exposure time t = 250 ms = 250 x 10^-3 s

If beam diameter = 2 mm = 2 x 10^-3 m

then

cross-sectional area of beam A = \pi d^{2} /4 = (3.142 x (2*10^{-3} )^{2})/4

A = 3.142 x 10^-6 m^2

a) Intensity I = P/A

where P is the power of the laser

A is the cros-sectional area of the beam

I = ( 1 x 10^-3)/(3.142 x 10^-6) = <em>318.2 W/m^2</em>

<em></em>

b) Total energy delivered E = Pt

where P is the power of the beam

t is the exposure time

E = 1 x 10^-3 x 250 x 10^-3 = <em>2.5 x 10^-4 J</em>

<em></em>

c) The peak electric field is given as

E = \sqrt{2I/ce_{0} }

where I is the intensity of the beam

E is the electric field

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

e_{0} = 8.85 x 10^9 m kg s^-2 A^-2

E = \sqrt{2*318.2/3*10^8*8.85*10^9}  = <em>1.55 x 10^-8 v/m</em>
