When visiting some countries, you may see a person balancing a load on the head. Explain why the center of mass of the load need

s to be directly above the person’s neck vertebrae.
Physics

Vinvika [58]3 years ago

Explanation:

If the center of the load is directly above the vertebrae, there is no torque in the system. This is a good thing so that the vertebrae are not put out of alignment over time. (Of course, this still doesn't prevent compression of the vertebrae over time, which is a possibility.)

The maximum speed limit on interstate 10 is 75 miles per hour. how many meters per second is this
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

<h2>33.53m/s</h2>

Explanation:

Given the maximum speed limit on interstate 10 as 75 miles per hour, to get the speed in meter per seconds, we need to convert the given speed to meter per seconds.

Using the conversion 1 mile = 1609.34m and 1 hour = 3600 seconds

75 miles perhour = 75miles/1 hour

75miles/1 hour (in m/s) = 75miles*1609.34m* 1 hour/1mile * 1 hour * 3600s *

= 75 *1609.34m* 1 /1 * 1 * 3600s

= 120,700.5m/3600s

= 33.53m/s

<em>Hence the maximum speed limit on interstate 10 in metre per seconds is 33.53m/s</em>

Two identical blocks, A and B, are on a horizontal surface, as shown above. There is negligible friction between the surface and
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

  the speed of the center of mass stays the same

Explanation:

In a system with no energy loss, momentum is conserved if the mass remains constant. The system described has no change in mass, and energy loss is considered negligible. Hence the product of the total mass and the velocity of its center will be a constant. The center of mass stays the same speed.

Which of the following is not possible? A. Gas flow equals pressure gradient over resistance. B. Resistance equals pressure grad
kaheart [24]

Answer:

C. Pressure gradient equals gas flow over resistance.

Explanation:

As we know that pressure gradient is the driving force for the gas to flow from one point to other point

And we know that the flow rate is directly proportional to the driving force and it inversely depends on the resistance to flow

so we can say

Flow Rate = \frac{Driving \: force}{Resistance}

Flow Rate = \frac{Pressure \: Gradient}{Resistance}

so we can say that correct statements are as below

A. Gas flow equals pressure gradient over resistance.

B. Resistance equals pressure gradient over gas flow.

D. The amount of gas flowing in and out of the alveoli is directly proportional to the difference in pressure or pressure gradient between the external atmosphere and the alveoli.

7. A 1000 kg car is rolling down the street at 2.5 m/s. How fast would a 2500 kg car have to
babunello [35]

1 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this question we use the following formula:

momentum = mass × velocity

momentum of the first car = 1000 kg × 2.5 m/s

momentum of the second car = 2500 kg × X m/s

To bring the cars at rest the momentum of the first car have to be equal to the momentul of the second car.

momentum of the first car = momentum of the second car

1000 kg × 25 m/s = 2500 kg × X m/s

X (velocity of the second car) = (1000 × 25) / 2500 = 1 m/s
