Poor diet is predominantly associated with weight gain and obesity; however, the harmful effects do not end there. Animal and human studies indicate that an unhealthy diet can contribute to the development of many diseases, like cardiovascular disease and cancer, and can even affect the brain.

The system consists of a 20-lb disk A, 4-lb slender rod BC, and a 1-lb smooth collar C. If the disk rolls without slipping, dete

dlinn [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the collar will be 3.076 ft/s

Explanation:

Given data

weight of the disk, Wa = 20lb

weight of rod BC, Wbc = 4lb

weight of collar, Wc = 1lb

Considering the equation of equilibrium

Vb = 1.5Wbc

Wa = 1.875 Wbc

to calculate the velocity of the collar using energy conservation equation

T1 + V1 = T2 + V2

$0+4(1.5 \sin 45)+2(3 \sin 45)=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{20}{32.2}\right)(0.8)\right)$

=> $(1.875 W b c)+\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{20}{32.2}\right)(1.5 W b c)+\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{20}{32.2}\right)$

=> $(1.5 W b c) \frac{1}{2}\left\{\frac{1}{12}\left(\frac{4}{32.2}\right)(3)\right\}+\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{32.2}\right)$

=> $(2.598 W b c)+4(1.5 \sin 0)+2(3 \sin 0)$

Wbc = 1.18rad/sec

i.e.

$V _c=2.598 \times 1.18$

= 3.076 ft/ s

What is the solar process that results in the production of energy?

AleksandrR [38]

"solar-powered photovoltaic (PVC) panels convert the suns rays into electricity by exciting electrons in silicon cells using the photons of light from the sun. This electricity can then be used to supply renewable energy to your home or business."

I hope this helps ^-^

A car rolls backward from -2 to -10 m/s in 4 seconds. what is the acceleration. PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

pashok25 [27]

$\bf \underline{Given : }$

Initial velocity,u = -2 m/s

Final velocity,v = -10 m/s

Time taken, t = 4 seconds

$\bf \underline{To \: find \: out : }$

Find the acceleration ( a ) .

$\bf \underline{Solution : }$

We know that,

$\sf \: Acceleration = \dfrac{v - u}{t}$

Substituting the values in the above formula, we get

$\implies \sf \: Acceleration = \dfrac{ - 10 - ( - 2)}{4}$

$\implies\sf \: Acceleration = \dfrac{ - 10 + 2}{4}$

$\implies \sf \: Acceleration = \cancel \dfrac{ - 8}{4}$

$\implies\sf \: Acceleration = - 2 \: ms {}^{ - 2}$

Hence,the acceleration of a body is -2 m/s².

The cabinet is mounted on coasters and has a mass of 45 kg. The casters are locked to prevent the tires from rotating. The coeff

stira [4]

Answer:

the force P required for impending motion is 132.3 N

the largest value of "h" allowed if the cabinet is not to tip over is 0.8 m

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of the cabinet m = 45 kg

coefficient of static friction μ = 0.30

A free flow body diagram illustrating what the question represents is attached in the file below;

The given condition from the question let us realize that ; the casters are locked to prevent the tires from rotating.

Thus; considering the forces along the vertical axis ; we have :

$\sum f_y =0$

The upward force and the downward force is :

$N_A+N_B = mg$

where;

$\mathbf { N_A \ and \ N_B}$ are the normal contact force at center point A and B respectively .

$N_A+N_B = 45*9.8$

$N_A+N_B = 441$ ------- equation (1)

Considering the forces on the horizontal axis:

$\sum f_x = 0$

$F_A +F_B = P$

where ;

$\mathbf{ F_A \ and \ F_B }$ are the static friction at center point A and B respectively.

which can be written also as:

$\mu_s N_A + \mu_s N_B = P$

$\mu_s( N_A + N_B) = P$

replacing our value from equation (1)

P = 0.30 ( 441)

P = 132.3 N

Thus; the force P required for impending motion is 132.3 N

b) Since the horizontal distance between the casters A and B is 480 mm; Then half the distance = 480 mm/2 = 240 mm = 0.24 cm

the largest value of "h" allowed for the cabinet is not to tip over is calculated by determining the limiting condition of the unbalanced torque whose effect is canceled by the normal reaction at $N_A$ and it is shifted to $N_B$ :

Then:

$\sum M _B = 0$

$P*h = mg*0.24$

$h =\frac{45*9.8*0.24}{132.3}$

h = 0.8 m

Thus; the largest value of "h" allowed if the cabinet is not to tip over is 0.8 m
