<span>6160 joules

    to lift 1 newton 1 metre requires 1 joule
 there are 10 newtons in one kilo

    so 77(kg) x 8 (metres) x 10 (newtons/kilo) = 6160 joules</span>

A current-carrying wire is bent into a circular loop of radius R and lies in an xy plane. A uniform external magnetic field B in
Ilya [14]

Answer:

 F = 2π I R B

Explanation:

The magnetic force is described by the equation.

      F = q v x B = i L  x B

Where i is the current, L is a vector that points in the direction of the current (length) and B is the magnetic field.

This equation can be used in scalar form and the direction of the force found by the right hand ruler, the thumb goes in the direction of L, the fingers extended in the direction of B and the palm of the hand indicates the direction of the force if the load is positive

     F = i L B sin θ

In this case the wire is in the xy plane and the z-axis field whereby they are perpendicular, θ = 90º and sin 90 = 1

     F = i L B

The loop length is

    L = 2π R

    F = i 2π R B

    F = 2π I R B

The force is in the loop

A person pushes horizontally with a force of 220. N on a 61.0 kg crate to move it across a level floor. The coefficient of kinet
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

(a) 161.57 N

(b) 0.958 m/s^2

Explanation:

Force applied, F = 220 N

mass of crate, m = 61 kg

μ = 0.27

(a) The magnitude of the frictional force,

f = μ N

where, N is the normal reaction

N = m x g = 61 x 9.81 = 598.41 N

So, the frictional force, f = 0.27 x 598.41

f = 161.57 N

(b) Let a be the acceleration of the crate.

Fnet = F - f = 220 - 161.57

Fnet = 58.43 N

According to newton's second law

Fnet = mass x acceleration

58.43 = 61 x a

a = 0.958 m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration of the crate is 0.958 m/s^2.

A football is thrown horizontally with an initial velocity of (16.6 m/s)x^. ignoring air resistance, the average acceleration of
Andrei [34K]

Solution:

According to the equations for 1-D kinematics. The only change to them is that instead one equation that describes general motion.

So we will have to use the equations twice: once for motion in the x direction and another time for the y direction.  

v_f=v_o + at ……..(a)

 [where v_f and v_o are final velocity and initial velocity, respectively]

Now ,

Initially, there was y velocity, however gravity began to act on the football, causing it to accelerate.  

Applying this value in equation (a)  

v_yf = at = -9.81 m/s^s * 1.75 = -17.165 m/s in the y direction  

For calculating the magnitude of the equation we have to square root the given value

         (16.6i - 17.165y)  

\\ \left | V  \right |=sqrt{16.6^{2}+17.165^{2}}\\ = \sqrt{275.56+294.637225}\\= \sqrt{570.197225}\\= 23.87[/tex]

Leading edge flaps can be used to decrease (or eliminate) the leading edge suction peak at a desired lift coefficient. When airf
Alik [6]

Answer:

An investigation is made to determine the performance of simple thin airfoils in the slightly supersonic flow region with the aid of the nonlinear transonic theory first developed by von Kármán[1]. Expressions for the pressure coefficient across an oblique shock and a Prandtl-Meyer expansion are developed in terms of a transonic similarity parameter. Aerodynamic coefficients are calculated in similarity form for the flat plate and asymmetric wedge airfoils, and curves are plotted. Sample curves for a flat plate and a specific asymmetric wedge are plotted on the usual coordinate grid of Cl, Cd,andCmc/4versus angle of attack and Cl versus Mach Number to illustrate the apparent features of nonlinear flow.
