Answer:

The pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the woman, m = 55 kg

diameter of the circular heel, d = 6.0 mm

radius of the heel, r = 3.0 mm = 0.003 m

Cross-sectional area of the heel is given by;

A = πr²

A = π(0.003)²

A = 2.8278 x 10⁻⁵ m²

The weight of the woman is given by;

W = mg

W = 55 x 9.8

W = 539 N

The pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is given by;

P = F / A

P = W / A

P = 539 / (2.8278 x 10⁻⁵ )

P = 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

Therefore, the pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

A soccer player kicks a ball at rest on the
scoundrel [369]

The kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy changes during its movement from ground to the top height.

<h3>What happens to kinetic and potential energy while motion?</h3>

When the ball moves upward, its gravitational potential energy is increases and kinetic energy begins to decrease but when the ball falls towards the earth, its gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy. When the ball collides with the ground, the kinetic energy is transformed into other forms of energy.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Defined below

Explanation:

Climate change is simply the long term change in the average weather patterns that are associated with the local, regional and global climates of the earth. Climate change is usually driven by human activities like burning of fossils; natural processes like cyclic ocean patterns; external factors like volcanic eruptions.

A singly charged ion of 7Li (an isotope of lithium which lost only one electron) has a mass of 1.16 ×10^-26 kg. It is accelerate
MaRussiya [10]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of lithium, m=1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg

It is accelerated through a potential difference, V = 224 V

Uniform magnetic field, B = 0.724 T

Applying the conservation of energy as :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=qV

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2qV}{m}}

q is the charge on an electron

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 224\ V}{1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg}}

v = 78608.58 m/s

v=7.86\times 10^4\ m/s

To find the radius of the ion's path in the magnetic field. The centripetal force is balanced by the magnetic force as :

qvB=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}

r=\dfrac{1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg\times 7.86\times 10^4\ m/s}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.724\ T}

r = 0.0078 meters

So, the radius of the path of the ion is 0.0078 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
