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.)

If you have two uncertainties, and they are from two different sources and contribute to the uncertainty of a measurement, what
Darya [45]

The propagation errors we can find the uncertainty of a given magnitude is the sum of the uncertainties of each magnitude.

                           Δm = ∑  | \frac{dm}{dx_i} | \ \Delta x_i

Physical quantities are precise values ​​of a variable, but all measurements have an uncertainty, in the case of direct measurements the uncertainty is equal to the precision of the given instrument.

When you have derived variables, that is, when measurements are made with different instruments, each with a different uncertainty, the way to find the uncertainty or error is used the propagation errors to use the variation of each parameter, keeping the others constant and taking the worst of the  cases, all the errors add up.

If m is the calculated quantity, x_i the measured values ​​and Δx_i the uncertainty of each value, the total uncertainty is

                      Δm = ∑  | \frac{dm}{dx_i } | \ \Delta x_i    | dm / dx_i | Dx_i

               

for instance:

If the magnitude is  a average of two magnitudes measured each with a different error

                     m = \frac{m_1+m_2}{2}

                     Δm = | \frac{dm}{dx_1} |  Δx₁ + | \frac{dm}{dx_2} | Δx₂

                     \frac{dm}{dx_1} = ½

                     \frac{dm}{dx_2} = ½

                     Δm = \frac{1}{2} Δx₁ + ½ Δx₂

                     Δm = Δx₁ + Δx₂

In conclusion, using the propagation errors we can find the uncertainty of a given quantity is the sum of the uncertainties of each measured quantity.

An aircraft is in level flight at 225 km/hr through air at standard conditions. The lift coefficient at this speed is 0.45 and t
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

- the effective lift area for the aircraft is 8.30 m²

- the required engine thrust is 1275 N

- required power is 79.7 kW

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Speed V = 225 km/hr = 62.5 m/s

The lift coefficient CL = 0.45

drag coefficient CD = 0.065

mass = 900 kg

g = 9.81 m/s²

a)  the effective lift area for the aircraft

we know that for a steady level flight, weight = lift and thrust = drag

Using the equation for the lift force

F_L = C_L\frac{1}{2}ρV²A = W

we substitute

0.45 × \frac{1}{2} × 1.21 × ( 62.5 )² × A = ( 900 × 9.81 )

1081.05 × A = 8829

A = 8829 / 1081.05

A = 8.30 m²

Therefore, the effective lift area for the aircraft is 8.30 m²

b) the required engine thrust and power to maintain level flight.

we use the expression for drag force

F_D = T = C_D\frac{1}{2}ρV²A

we substitute

= 0.065 × \frac{1}{2} × 1.21 × ( 62.5 )² × 8.30

T = 1275 N

Since drag and thrust force are the same,

Therefore, the required engine thrust is 1275 N

Power required;

P = TV

p = 1275 × 62.5

p = 79687.5 W

p = ( 79687.5 / 1000 )kW

p = 79.7 kW

Therefore, required power is 79.7 kW

How can hand tools help every technician for their safety in doing hard servicing activities​
Anni [7]

Answer: Hand tools are necessary for daily activities.

Explanation:

The hand tools are useful for day to day activities they aid in pouring substances, holding things, mixing substances, cleaning and for other purposes. In a chemical laboratory the hand tools like test tube holders can help in holding the chemicals. In a medical laboratory the forceps can be useful in holding and cutting the sections without causing any harm to the hands. Hand tools avoid the direct contact with the microorganisms in medical laboratory thus protect against infections. Hand tools aid in surgical operations and they help in avoiding direct contact with the blood vessels and organs preventing contamination and infections.

A solid cylinder with a radius of 10 cm and a mass of 3.0 kg is rotating about its center with anangular speed of 3.5 rad/s. Wha
Lynna [10]

Answer:

kE=0.0735 J

Explanation:

Given that

Radius ,R=10 cm = 0.1 m

Mass ,m= 3 kg

Angular speed ,ω = 3.5 rad/s

We know that moment of inertia for solid sphere given as

I=\dfrac{2}{5}mR^2

Kinetic energy

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

Now by putting the values

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}mR^2\times \omega^2

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}\times 3\times 0.1^2\times 3.5^2\ J

kE=0.0735 J

Therefore the kinetic energy will be 0.0735 J
