Answer:

the resulting angular acceleration is 15.65 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

force generated in the patellar tendon F = 400 N

patellar tendon attaches to the tibia at a 20° angle 3 cm( 0.03 m ) from the axis of rotation at the knee.

so Torque produced by the knee will be;

T = F × d⊥

T = 400 N × 0.03 m × sin( 20° )

T = 400 N × 0.03 m × 0.342

T = 4.104 N.m

Now, we determine the moment of inertia of the knee

I = mk²

given that; the lower leg and foot have a combined mass of 4.2kg and a given radius of gyration of 25 cm ( 0.25 m )

we substitute

I = 4.2 kg × ( 0.25 m )²

I = 4.2 kg × 0.0626 m²

I = 0.2625 kg.m²

So from the relation of Moment of inertia, Torque and angular acceleration;

T = I∝

we make angular acceleration ∝, subject of the formula

∝ = T / I

we substitute

∝ = 4.104 / 0.2625

∝ = 15.65 rad/s²

Therefore, the resulting angular acceleration is 15.65 rad/s²

In case of collision of objects in two dimensions which statement is true after the collision?
Grace [21]

The correct answer to the question is : C) The horizontal momentum and the vertical momentum are both conserved. 

EXPLANATION :

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand the law of conservation of momentum.

As per the law of conservation of momentum, the total linear as well as angular momentum of an isolated system is always conserved . The law of conservation of energy is a universal fact.

Hence, during any type of collision, the total momentum is always conserved.

Hence, the total horizontal momentum as well as total vertical momentum are always conserved during both elastic as well as inelastic collision.

he tune-up specifications of a car call for the spark plugs to be tightened to a torque of 47 N⋅m . You plan to tighten the plug
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

207.4 N

Explanation:

The torque \tau  on a body is

\tau = r* F  where r is the radius vector from the point of rotation to the point at which force F is applied.

The product of r and F is equal to the product of magnitude of r and F multiplied by the sine of angle between both vectors.

Therefore, torque is also given by

\tau = rF\sin \theta

Where \theta is the angle between r and F.

Use the expression of torque.

Substitute L for r in the equation \tau = rF\sin \theta

\tau = LF\sin \theta

Where L is the length of the wrench.

Making F the subject

F = \frac{\tau }{{L\sin \theta }}

Force required to pull the wrench is given as,

F = \frac{\tau }{{L\sin \theta }}

Substitute 47{\rm{ N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}  for \tau, 25 cm for L, and 115o for \theta  

\begin{array}{c}\\F = \frac{{47{\rm{ N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}}}{{\left( {25{\rm{ cm}}} \right)\sin {{115}^{\rm{o}}}}}\left( {\frac{{1{\rm{ cm}}}}{{{{10}^{ - 2}}{\rm{ m}}}}} \right)\\\\ = 207.435{\rm{ N}}\\\\ \approx 207.4{\rm{ N}}\\\end{array}

Two solenoids A and B, spaced close to each other and sharing the same cylindrical axis, have 430 and 610 turns, respectively. A
KIM [24]

Answer

given,

Two solenoids A and B

Number of turn

Na = 430 turns          Nb = 610 turns

Current = 2.80 A

Average flux through  A  = 300 μWb

Average of flux through B = 90.0  μ Wb

a) L = \dfrac{N \phi}{I}

   L = \dfrac{610\times 90 \times 10^{-6}}{2.80}

   L =19.6 mH

b) inductance of A

   L = \dfrac{N_A \phi_A}{I_A}

   L = \dfrac{430\times 300 \times 10^{-6}}{2.80}

   L =46 mH

c) magnitude of the emf

    \epsilon_B = -L_B\dfrac{dI}{dT}

    \epsilon_B = -(19.6\times 10^{-3})(0.5)

    \epsilon_B = -9.8\times 10^{-3}\ V

    \epsilon_B = -9.8\ mV
