Ted Clubber Lang. A hook in boxing primarily involves horizontal flexion of the shoulder while maintaining a constant angle at t

he elbow. During this punch, the horizontal flexor muscles of the shoulder contract and shorten at an average speed of 75 cm/s. They move through an arc length of 5 cm during the hook, while the first moves through an arc length of 100 cm. What is the average speed of the first during the hook?

Answer:

15 m/s or 1500 cm/s

Explanation:

Given that

Speed of the shoulder, v(h) = 75 cm/s = 0.75 m/s

Distance moved during the hook, d(h) = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Distance moved by the fist, d(f) = 100 cm = 1 m

Average speed of the fist during the hook, v(f) = ? cm/s = m/s

This can be solved by a very simple relation.

d(f) / d(h) = v(f) / v(h)

v(f) = [d(f) * v(h)] / d(h)

v(f) = (1 * 0.75) / 0.05

v(f) = 0.75 / 0.05

v(f) = 15 m/s

Therefore, the average speed of the fist during the hook is 15 m/s or 1500 cm/s

You pull on a crate using a rope as in (Figure 1), except the rope is at an angle of 20.0 ∘ above the horizontal. The weight of
Nezavi [6.7K]

Hi there!

For an object on an incline with friction being pulled, the following forces are present.

  • Force due to Gravity
  • Force due to Friction
  • Force due to tension

The force due to friction opposes the force due to gravity which would cause the object to slide down. (The force due to friction acts up the incline). Additionally, the force due to the rope is also upward.

Let up the incline be positive, and down the incline be negative.

Doing a summation of forces:
\Sigma F = F_T + F_f - F_g

For the crate to be moving at a constant velocity, there is NO net force acting on the crate, so:
0 = F_T + F_f - F_g

Now, we can express each force as an equation.

Force due to tension:

  • Must be solved for.

Force due to gravity:

  • On an incline, this is equivalent to the SINE component of its weight.  (Force of gravity is STILL THE WEIGHT, but on an incline, it contains a horizontal component that contributes to the net force)

This is expressed as:
F_g = Mgsin\theta

Force due to friction:

  • Equivalent to the normal force and coefficient of friction. The normal force is the VERTICAL component of the object's weight, so:

N = Mgcos\theta

F_f = \mu Mgcos\theta

Now, plug these expressions into the above equation.

0 = F_T + \mu Mgcos\theta - Mgsin\theta\\\\Mgsin\theta - \mu Mgcos\theta = F_T

Mg = 245 N (weight). Plug in all values:
245sin(20) - 0.270(245)cos(20) = F_T\\\\F_T = \boxed{21.634 N}

The normal force is equivalent to the vertical component (PERPENDICULAR TO THE INCLINE) of the weight (cosine), so:

N = Mgcos\theta\\\\N = 245cos(20) = \boxed{230.225 N}

Atoms are electrically neutral because there are an equal number of protons in the nucleus and In the cloud around the nucleus
Alborosie

Answer:

Atoms are electrically neutral because there are an equal number of protons in the nucleus and In the cloud around the nucleus.

Explanation:

  1. The atoms that are the building block of matter consist of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
  2. The protons are positively charged and the electrons are negatively charged particles.
  3. The neutrons are negatively charged particles.
  4. The atoms in its stable natural state consist of an equal number of protons and electrons.
  5. Thus an atom has a neutral charge in its natural state.

Help me understand why 5G cell phones and cell phone towers do not cause cancer even with prolonged exposure and are not harmful
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

I'm not really sure as far as cell phone towers, but 5G hasn't published any safety tests, so we don't know for sure whether or not this would be harmful/cancer causing. The lack of evidence in either direction may be why we can't say definitively that it is safe or not harmful. Hope this helps.

Describe the shapes of a concave lens and a convex lens
aivan3 [116]
The fact that a double convex lens is thicker across its middle is an indicator that it will converge rays of light that travel parallel to its principal axis. A double convex lens is a converging lens. A double concave lens is also symmetrical<span> across both its </span>horizontal<span>and vertical axis.

A proton moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B with arrow at a speed of 2.40 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration
noname [10]

Answer:

0.00956770833 T

Explanation:

q = Charge of electron = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

m = Mass of proton = 1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

a = Acceleration = 2.2\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2

v = Velocity = 2.4\times 10^{7}\ m/s

Magnetic field is given by

B=\dfrac{ma}{qv}\\\Rightarrow B=\dfrac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 2.2\times 10^{13}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2.4\times 10^{7}}\\\Rightarrow B=0.00956770833\ T

The magnetic field is 0.00956770833 T
