Tendons. Tendons are strong elastic fibers that attach muscles to bones. To a reasonable approximation, they obey Hooke’s law. I

n laboratory tests on a particular tendon, it was found that, when a 250-g object was hung from it, the tendon stretched 1.23 cm. (a) Find the force constant of this tendon in N>m. (b) Because of its thickness, the maximum tension this tendon can support without rupturing is 138 N. By how much can the tendon stretch without rupturing, and how much energy is stored in it at that point?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of object(m)=250 gm

Stretching(x)=1.23 cm

Suppose force constant to be k

then kx=mg

k\times 1.23\times 10^{-2}=250\times 10^{-3}\times 9.8

k=\frac{9.8\times 100}{4\times 1.23}

k=199.18 N/m

(b)Maximum Tension is 138 N

138=kx

x=\frac{138}{199.18}=0.692\approx 69.2 cm

Energy stored=\frac{kx^2}{2}=\frac{199.18\times (0.692)^2}{2}=47.80 J

In this circuit the resistance R1 is 7 Ω and R2 is 3 Ω. If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resisto
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Series combination:

Equivalent resistance =10Ω

Parallel combination:

Equivalent resistance =\frac{21}{10} \Omega

Explanation:

Resistance: Resistance is the ratio of voltage to the current.

R=\frac{V}{I}

R = resistance

I = current

V= potential difference(voltage)

There are two types of resistance combinations.

  1. series combination
  2. parallel combination.

Series combination: If the ending point of one resistance is connected to the starting point of other resistance that combination is known as series combination.

If R₁,R₂ and R₃  are connected in series combination.

Then equivalent resistance = R₁+R₂+R₃

Parallel combination: If the ending point and the starting point of the all resistance are the same points that combination is known as parallel combination.

If R₁,R₂ and R₃  are connected in parallel combination.

Then equivalent resistance  \frac{1}{R}= \frac{1}{R_1}+ \frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}

Here R₁=7Ω and     R₂=3Ω

If R₁ and R₂  connected in series combination

Then equivalent resistance = (7+3) Ω

                                            =10Ω

If R₁ and R₂  connected in parallel combination

Then equivalent resistance =\frac{1}{(\frac{1}{7} +\frac{1}{3})} \Omega

                                              =\frac{21}{10} \Omega

natita [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the work done on the cart is NET work

Then the work will result in an increase in kinetic energy

KE₀ + W = KE₁

½mv₀² + W = ½mv₁²

½(0.80)(0.61²) + 0.91 = ½(0.80)v₁²

v₁ = 1.626991...

v₁ = 1.6 m/s
