The human tibia breaks under an impulse of 55 Ns. If after falling a person typically comes to eat in a time span of 0.005 s how

Answer:

0.73 m/s

Explanation:

From Newton second law of motion,

I = m(v-u)...................... Equation 1

Where I = Impulse, m = mass of the person, v = final velocity, u = Initial velocity.

make v the subject of the equation

v =(I/m)+u................. Equation 2

Note: u = 0 m/s as the person is falling from an height.

Given: I = 55 Ns, m = 75 kg, u = 0 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

v = 55/75

v = 0.73 m/s

Which term describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane? View Available Hint(s) Which term describes the diff
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Membrane potential

Explanation:

Membrane potential is describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane.                                                                                                              

The difference in potential between exterior  and  interior of the  biological cell is known as Membrane potential.Generally it is denoted by  millivolts like mV and varies from -80 V to -40 V.

So the answer is Membrane potential

A 56.6-kg crate rests on a level floor at a shipping dock. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.517 and 0.260,
kifflom [539]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnitude of frictional force = μ mg

μ is either static or kinetic friction.

To start the crate moving , static friction is calculated .

a ) To start crate moving , force required = μ mg where μ is coefficient of static friction .

force required =.517 x 56.6  x 9.8 = 286.76  N .

b ) to  slide the crate across the dock at a constant speed , force required

= μ mg where μ is coefficient of kinetic  friction , where μ is kinetic friction

= .26 x 56.6  x 9.8 = 144.21 N .

A car travels in a straight line from a position 50 m to your right to a position 210 m to your right in 5 sec. a. What is the a
Verizon [17]

Answer:

a) The average velocity is 32 m/s

b) See the attached figure. Slope of the line = 32.

Graphic: a line that passes through the points (0; 50) and (5; 210)

Explanation:

a) The average velocity is calculated as the displacement over time:

v = ΔX / Δt

where

ΔX : displacement ( final position - initial position)

Δt : time (final time - initial time)

Considering the origin of the reference system as the position where the observer is:

ΔX = 210 m - 50 m = 160 m

Δt  = 5 s

v = 160 m / 5 s = 32 m/s

b) In the graphic position vs time, plot a line that passes through the points (0, 50) (because at time 0, the car is 50 m away from you, the center of the reference system) and (5, 210). The x-axis, time, is in seconds and the y-axis, position, in meters. The slope of the line is calculated as:

slope = (X₂ - X₁) /(t₂ - t₁) = (210 - 50) / (5 - 0) = 32. Then, the velocity is equal to the slope of the line. See the attached figure.

A round object of mass 10 kg and radius 0.5 m rolls without slipping down a hill from a height of 4.5 m. If its speed at the bot
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

moment of inertia is 2.72 kg m²

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 10kg

height h = 4.5 m

radius r  = 0.5 m

speed  v = 6.5 m/s

to find out

moment of inertia

solution

we apply here conservation of energy

that is

mgh = 1/2 ×mv² + 1/2 × Iω²

here I is moment of inertia we find and

we know ω = Velocity / radius = 6.5 / 0.5 = 13

and g = 9.8

so put here all these value

10 (9.8) 4.5 = 1/2 ×(10)(6.5)² + 1/2 × I(13)²

441 = 211.25 + 1/2 × I( 169 )

I = 2.72

so moment of inertia is 2.72 kg m²
