) A friend of yours complains that he often has lower back pain. One day while he picks up a package, you notice he bends at his

hips rather than keeping his back straight and bending his knees. Assume he pivots at the hips so that his spine is horizontal. His back muscles then exert a force at 48 cm away from the hips at 13.5 degrees above the horizontal (directed slightly up and to the left in the picture shown). The weight of his upper body is 560 N, and his center of mass is 38 cm from the hips. Draw a force diagram of the spine. What total force is exerted by the back muscle when he picks up a 10 kg package at 82 cm from the hips? Extra credit: Find the force exerted by the hips on the spine/pelvis

Answer:

Explanation:

Please see the figure attached for free body diagram .

Taking torque about the hip joint ,

560 x 38 + 100 x 82 = F sin13.5 x 48

21280 + 8200 = 11.2 F

F = 2632.14 N .

Force exerted by the hip on the spine = 2632.14 N .

A flatbed truck is carrying a 20.0 kg crate along a level road. the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the bed
Dahasolnce [82]
<span>3.92 m/s^2 Assuming that the local gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s^2, then the maximum acceleration that the truck can have is the coefficient of static friction multiplied by the local gravitational acceleration, so 0.4 * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3.92 m/s^2 If you want the more complicated answer, the normal force that the crate exerts is it's mass times the local gravitational acceleration, so 20.0 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 196 kg*m/s^2 = 196 N Multiply by the coefficient of static friction, giving 196 N * 0.4 = 78.4 N So we need to apply 78.4 N of force to start the crate moving. Let's divide by the crate's mass 78.4 N / 20.0 kg = 78.4 kg*m/s^2 / 20.0 kg = 3.92 m/s^2 And you get the same result.</span>

Which wave characteristics is defined as the number of cycles of a periodic wave occurring per unit time?
Assoli18 [71]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Frequency

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Waves are disturbances that travel through a material medium. There are several characteristics of waves, which includes; wavelength, frequency, period and amplitude. </u></em>
  • Amplitude is the maximum displacement of wave particles, or simply the height of the wave, measured in meters.
  • Wavelength is the distance between adjacent crests or troughs in a transverse wave or between two successive rarefaction or compressions in a longitudinal wave, measured in meters.
  • Period is the time it takes for one complete wave to pass a given point, measured in seconds.
  • <em><u>Frequency is the number of complete waves or cycles that pass a point in one second, measured is inverse seconds, or Hertz (Hz).</u></em>

Investigators are most likely to use the case history method when they study <span>a rare behavior or an unusual person.
They do this to obtain some sort of basis that they could use as a pointer to make their decision regarding the similar case (after figuring out the difference in situation between each period)</span>
