Answer:

Δ V =20.62

ΔE = 16.101

Δ V = 6.78

Explanation:

Case 1:

Given:

       - I = 5.9 Δ0.4  Amps

       - R = 42.7 Δ0.6  Ohms

       - V = I*R

Solution:

The procedure for finding absolute change ΔV is by taking partial derivatives of all the physical quantities.

                             V_mean = I_mean * R_mean

                            V_mean = 5.9 * 42.7 = 251.93

To find the uncertainty ΔV:

                                  ΔV / V = ΔI / I + ΔR / R

                         ΔV / 251.93 = 0.4 / 5.9 + 0.6 / 42.7

                              ΔV / 251.93 = 2062 / 25193

                                            Δ V = 20.62

Case 2:

Given:

       - m = 2.27 Δ0.06  kg

       - v = 8.58 Δ1.54  m/s

       - E = 0.5*m*v^2

Solution:

The procedure for finding absolute change ΔE is by taking partial derivatives of all the physical quantities.

                             E_mean = 0.5*m_mean *v^2_mean

                            E_mean = 0.5*2.27*8.58^2 = 83.554614

To find the uncertainty ΔE:

                                  ΔE / E = 0.5*[Δm / m + 2*Δv / v]

                         ΔE / 83.554614 = 0.5*[0.06 / 2.27 + 2*1.54 / 8.58]

                            ΔE / 83.554614= 1706 / 8853

                                            Δ E = 16.101

Case 3:

Given:

       - I = 6.6 Δ0.6  Amps

       - R = 8 Δ0.3  Ohms

       - V = I*R

Solution:

The procedure for finding absolute change ΔV is by taking partial derivatives of all the physical quantities.

                           V_mean = I_mean * R_mean

                              V_mean = 6.6 * 8 = 52.8

To find the uncertainty ΔV:

                                  ΔV / V = ΔI / I + ΔR / R

                             ΔV / 52.8 = 0.6 / 6.6 + 0.3 / 8

                                   ΔV / 52.8 = 113 / 880

                                         Δ V = 6.78

A weight lifter is trying to do a bicep curl with a weight of 300 N. At the "sticking point", the moment arm of this weight is 3
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The weight lifter would not get past this sticking point.

Explanation:

Generally torque applied on the weight is mathematically represented as

             T =  F z

To obtain Elbow torque we substitute 4000 N for F (the force ) and 2cm = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02m for z the perpendicular distance

So Elbow Torque is   T_e= 4000 * 0.02

                                   = 80Nm

 To obtain the torque required we substitute 300 N for F and 30cm =\frac{30}{100} = 0.3 m

  So the Required Torque is T_R = 300 *0.3

                                                     =90Nm

Now since   T_e < T_R it mean that the weight lifter would not get past this sticking point
