Answer:

the pressure exerted by the object is 392,000 N/m²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 8 kg

area of your finger, A = 2 cm² = 2.0 x 10⁻⁴ m²

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The pressure exerted by the object is calculated as;

Pressure = \frac{F}{A} = \frac{mg}{A} = \frac{8 \times 9.8}{2\times 10^{-4}} = 392,000 \ N/m^2

Therefore, the pressure exerted by the object is 392,000 N/m²

. (a) How long can you play tennis on the 800 kJ (about 200 kcal) of energy in a candy bar? (b) Does this seem like a long time?
galina1969 [7]

(a). The power of the candy bar is,

P=440\text{ W}

The time taken to play on 800 kJ energy of the candy bar is,

t=\frac{E}{P}

where E is the energy.

Substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} t=\frac{800\times10^3}{440} \\ t=1.818\times10^3\text{ s} \\ t=1818\text{ seconds} \end{gathered}

As 1 minute is equal to 60 seconds,

Thus,

\begin{gathered} t=1818\text{ seconds} \\ t=\frac{1818}{60} \\ t=30.3\text{ min} \end{gathered}

Thus, the time taken to play tennis on the 800 kJ energy is 30.3 minutes.

(b). By doing the exercise, the process of digestion of food inside our body increases. Thus, the exercise does not helps us to burn the calories. But it helps us to diggest the heavy meal like candy bar easily.

The time taken to digest the canndy bar or to utilise its energy is large because it takes a lot of time to burn small amount of food and make it digest quickly.

A car of mass 1200 kg is traveling at 2 m/s. Then it collides with a heavy boulder in the road. During the collision, the car mo
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

F = 1.6*10⁴ N

Explanation:

Given distance x = 0.15m, mass m = 1200kg, velocity v = 2m/s.

Unknown: force F

Force is given by Newton's law:

(1) F = ma

The average force to stop an object from a velocity will be the same force necessary to accelerate an object from rest to the same velocity.

The distance for an object starting from rest for a constant acceleration is given by:

(2) x=\frac{1}{2}at^2

The velocity for an object starting from rest for a constant acceleration:

(3) v=at

Using equation 2 and 3 to eliminate time t:

(4) x=\frac{1}{2}a\frac{v^2}{a^2}=\frac{v^2}{2a}

Solving equation 4 for the acceleration a:

(5) a=\frac{v^2}{2x}

Using equation1 to solve for the force F:

(6) F=ma=\frac{mv^2}{2x}

A 0.20-kg object is attached to the end of an ideal horizontal spring that has a spring constant of 120 N/m. The simple harmonic
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

0.07756 m

Explanation:

Given mass of object =0.20 kg

spring constant = 120 n/m

maximum speed = 1.9 m/sec

We have to find the amplitude of the motion

We know that maximum speed of the object when it is in harmonic motion is given by v_{max}=A\omega where A is amplitude and \omega is angular velocity

Angular velocity is given by \omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}  where k is spring constant and m is mass

So v_{max}=A\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

A=V_{max}\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}=1.9\times \sqrt{\frac{0.2}{120}}=0.07756 \ m
