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
1 answer:
Vinvika [58]3 years ago
3 0

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.)

Part A A uniform solid disk of radius 1.60 m and mass 2.30 kg rolls without slipping to the bottom of an inclined plane. If the
kifflom [539]

Answer:

Height will be 3.8971 m        

Explanation:

We have given that radius of the solid r = 1.60 m

Mass of the solid disk m = 2.30 kg

Angular velocity \omega =4.46rad/sec

Moment of inertia is given by I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2

Transnational Kinetic energy is given by KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 as we know that v = v=\omega r

So KE=\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2

Rotational kinetic energy is given by KE_{ROTATIONAL}=\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2=\frac{1}{2}\left ( \frac{1}{2}mr^2 \right )\omega ^2=\frac{1}{4}m(r\omega )^2

Potential energy is given by mgh

According to energy conservation

mgh=\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2+\frac{1}{4}m(\omega r)^2

h=\frac{3r^2\omega ^2}{4g}=\frac{3\times 1.60^2\times 4.46^2}{4\times 9.8}=3.8971m

Why does the closed top of a convertible bulge when the car is riding along a highway? Why does the closed top of a convertible
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Option D

The air pressure inside the car is greater than the pressure outside.

Explanation:

When considering airflow over and around a surface, from Bernoulli's equation, air flow regions with higher velocity have a lower pressure, and regions with lower velocity have a higher pressure.

The air outside the convertible is moving faster than the air inside the convertible. This leads to a higher pressure zone just below the surface of the roof (inside the car) causing the roof of the convertible to bulge upwards

Suppose of methane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly and a temperature of . Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas
Licemer1 [7]

There are supposed to be numbers in these places:

" _____ of methane"

" ... pressure of exactly _____ "

" ... temperature of _____ "

I've seen a lot of questions with missing numbers before, but I think this is the first time I ever saw a question where even the number of significant digits to round the answer to is missing.

"Round your answer to _____ significant digits."
