When parts of your body functions as lever systems, what part supplies the force?

1 answer:

5 0

Muscles supply the force. They exert force by getting shorter (contracting).
A muscle can't get longer by itself. There needs to be another muscle
pulling in the opposite direction.

You push a table 8 meters for 16 minuutes and do 6720 j of work how much power do ypu use

Yuri [45]

P=W/t

P=Power
W=Work
t=Time

Convert 16 minutes in seconds:
16 mins = 960 secs

P=6720/960=7.23 W [Watt]

Two tugboats are moving a barge. Tugboat A pushes on the barge with a force of 3000n. Tugboat B pulls with a force of 5000 Newto

The net force on the barge is 8000 N

Explanation:

In order to find the net force on the badge, we have to use the rules of vector addition, since force is a vector quantity.

In this problem, we have two forces:

The force of tugboat A, $F_A = 3000 N$ , acting in a certain direction
The force of tugboat B, $F_B = 5000 N$ , also acting in the same direction

Since the two forces act in the same direction, this means that we can simply add their magnitudes to find the net combined force on the barge. Therefore, we get

$F=F_A+F_B = 3000 + 5000 = 8000 N$
