Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Archimedes principle is a very important concept in fluid mechanics which is credited to the Greek mathematician called Archimedes. The law simply states that; When an object is fully or partially immersed in a fluid , the immersed body experiences an upthrust(Weight loss) which is equal to the weight of fluid displaced by the immersed object.

In essence, the upthrust or volume of Displacement experienced by the object will be equal to the volume of the the object which is immersed in the fluid. Such that the force of buoyancy matches the weight of object immersed in the fluid.

One of the most common illustrations of Archimedes is in the navigation of ships whose upthrust increases as the weight of the ship increases such that the upthrust force balances the weight of the ship in water.

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

3. A 2kg wooden block whose initial speed is 3 m/s slides on a smooth floor for 2 meters before it comes to a

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Calculating Coefficient of friction is 0.229.

Force is 4.5 N that keep the block moving at a constant speed.

Explanation:

We know that speed expression is as $\mathrm{V}^{2}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2}+2 . \mathrm{a} . \Delta \mathrm{s}$ .

Where, ${V}_{i}$ is initial speed, V is final speed, ∆s displacement and a acceleration.

Given that,

${V}_{i}$ =3 m/s, V = 0 m/s, and ∆s = 2 m

Substitute the values in the above formula,

$0=3^{2}-2 \times 2 \times a$

0 = 9 - 4a

4a = 9

$a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

$a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ is the acceleration.

Calculating Coefficient of friction:

$\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}$

$\mathrm{F}=\mu \times \mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{g}$

Compare the above equation

$\mu \times m \times g=m \times a$

Cancel "m" common term in both L.H.S and R.H.S

$\text { Equation becomes, } \mu \times g=a$

$\text { Coefficient of friction } \mu=\frac{a}{g}$

$\mathrm{g} \text { on earth surface }=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

$\mu=\frac{2.25}{9.8}$

$\mu=0.229$

Hence coefficient of friction is 0.229.

calculating force:

$\text { We know that } \mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}$

$\mathrm{F}=2 \times 2.25 \quad(\mathrm{m}=2 \mathrm{kg} \text { given })$

F = 4.5 N

Therefore, the force would be <u>4.5 N</u> to keep the block moving at a constant speed across the floor.

The visible spectrum refers to the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that we ________.

yKpoI14uk [10]

<h2>Answer: can see</h2>

Explanation:

The portion visible by the human eye of the electromagnetic spectrum is between 380 nm (violet-blue) and 780 nm (red) approximately. Which means this part of the spectrum is located between ultraviolet light and infrared light.

Note the fact only part of the whole electromagnetic spectrum is visible to humans is because the receptors in our eyes are only sensitive to these wavelengths.

Therefore:
