Answer:

2.2 s

Explanation:

Using the equation for the period of a physical pendulum, T = 2π√(I/mgh) where I = moment of inertia of leg about perpendicular axis at one point =  mL²/3 where m = mass of man = 67 kg and L = height of man = 1.83 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and h = distance of leg from center of gravity of man = L/2 (center of gravity of a cylinder)

So, T = 2π√(I/mgh)

T = 2π√(mL²/3 /mgL/2)

T = 2π√(2L/3g)

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

T = 2π√(2L/3g)

T = 2π√(2 × 1.83 m/(3 × 9.8 m/s² ))

T = 2π√(3.66 m/(29.4 m/s² ))

T = 2π√(0.1245 s² ))

T = 2π(0.353 s)

T = 2.22 s

T ≅ 2.2 s

So, the period of the man's leg is 2.2 s

A lion has a mass of 45 kg. Answer the following questions about it, using correct units. a. The lion runs at a speed of 14.2 m/
Eva8 [605]
A) The kinetic energy of an object is given by:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the mass of the object, and v its speed. For the lion in our problem, m=45 kg and v=14.2 m/s, so its kinetic energy is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(45 kg)(14.2 m/s)^2=4537 J

b) the increase in gravitational potential energy of the lion is given by:
\Delta U = mg \Delta h
where g is the gravitational acceleration, and \Delta h is the increase in altitude of the lion. In this problem, \Delta h=28 m, so the increase in gravitational potential energy is
\Delta U=mg \Delta h=(45 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(28 m)=12361 J

c) When the fox reaches the top of the tree, its gravitational potential energy is
U=mgh=(1.8 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(3.8 m)=67 J
As it jumps, its kinetic energy is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(1.8 kg)(8.1 m/s)^2=59 J
So the total mechanical energy of the fox as it jumps is
E=U+K=67 J + 59 J =126 J

Consider that 168.0 J of work is done on a system and 305.6 J of heat is extracted from the system. In the sense of the first la
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

To solve this problem we must resort to the Work Theorem, internal energy and Heat transfer. Summarized in the first law of thermodynamics.

dQ = dU + dW

Where,

Q = Heat

U = Internal Energy

By reference system and nomenclature we know that the work done ON the system is taken negative and the heat extracted is also considered negative, therefore

W = -168J \righarrow  Work is done ON the system

Q = -305.6J \rightarrow Heat is extracted FROM the system

Therefore the value of the Work done on the system is -158.0J

During an observation, it was noticed that light diffracts as it passes through small slits in a barrier. What does this evidenc
Lynna [10]

Answer:

It reveals that light is a wave

Explanation:

Diffraction is the property of a wave in which there is a bending of the wave about the corners of an obstacle or aperture into the geometrical shadow of the obstacle or aperture.

This simply implies that a wave bends or spreads out when it passes through openings. Since the light diffracts through small slits and diffraction has been shown to occur in water waves and sound waves, this property of diffraction can only be characteristic of a wave and thus, this evidence reveals that light is a wave.
