Answer:
A. The athlete isn’t doing any work because he doesn’t move the weight.
Explanation:
We must remember the definition of work, which says that work is equal to the product of mass by the distance displaced. In this case, the athlete only does work when he lifts the weight from the ground to the point where he holds the weight suspended.
So when he's holding the weight, he doesn't do any work.
I don't no if this helps but the body heat from your hand causes the liquid to boil, which in turn makes the liquid evaporate, turning it to gas. The expanding gas pushes the liquid upwards and when you release your hand, equilibrium is re-established.
Answer:
v = 66 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
The initial velocity of a car, u = 0
Acceleration of the car, a = 11 m/s²
We need to find the final velocity of the toy after 6 seconds.
Let v is the final velocity. It can be calculated using first equation of motion. It is given by :
v = u +at
v = 0 + 11 m/s² × 6 s
v = 66 m/s
So, the final velocity of the car is 66 m/s.
Answer:
a) 0.0288 grams
b) 
Explanation:
Given that:
A typical human body contains about 3.0 grams of Potassium per kilogram of body mass
The abundance for the three isotopes are:
Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium-41 with abundances are 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728% respectively.
a)
Thus; a person with a mass of 80 kg will posses = 80 × 3 = 240 grams of potassium.
However, the amount of potassium that is present in such person is :
0.012% × 240 grams
= 0.012/100 × 240 grams
= 0.0288 grams
b)
the effective dose (in Sieverts) per year due to Potassium-40 in an 80- kg body is calculate as follows:
First the Dose in (Gy) = 
= 
= 
Effective dose (Sv) = RBE × Dose in Gy
Effective dose (Sv) = 
Effective dose (Sv) =
