The knee extensors insert on the tibia at an angle of 30 degrees (from the longitudinal axis of the tibia), at a distance of 3 c

m from the axis of rotation at the knee. How much force must the knee extensors exert to produce an angular acceleration at the knee of 1 rad/s2 , given a mass of the lower leg and foot of 4.5 kg, and a radius of gyration of 23 cm

Answer:

the knee extensors must exert 15.87 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

mass m = 4.5 kg

radius of gyration k = 23 cm = 0.23 m

angle ∅ = 30°

∝ = 1 rad/s²

distance of 3 cm from the axis of rotation at the knee r = 3 cm = 0.03 m

using the expression;

ζ = I∝

ζ = mk²∝

we substitute

ζ = 4.5 × (0.23)² × 1

ζ  = 0.23805 N-m

so

from; ζ = rFsin∅

F = ζ / rsin∅

we substitute

F = 0.23805 / (0.03 × sin( 30 ° )

F = 0.23805 / (0.03 × 0.5)

F F = 0.23805 / 0.015

F = 15.87 N

Therefore, the knee extensors must exert 15.87 N

ankoles [38]

Answer:

d=510.2m

t=10.2s

Explanation:

The formulas for accelerated motion are:

v=v_0+at\\x=x_0+v_0t+\frac{at^2}{2}

From them we can get v^2=v_0^2+2ad.

We have:

v-v_0=at\\t=\frac{v-v_0}{a}

And substitute:

x=x_0+v_0(\frac{v-v_0}{a})+\frac{a}{2}(\frac{v-v_0}{a})^2\\x-x_0=\frac{v_0(v-v_0)}{a}+\frac{(v-v_0)^2}{2a}

We multiply both sides by 2a, and continue:

2a(x-x_0)=2v_0(v-v_0)+(v-v_0)^2=2v_0v-2v_0^2+v^2+v_0^2-2vv_0=v^2-v_0^2

Being d the displacement x-x_0, we have v^2=v_0^2+2ad

For our exercise, we will write this as:

d=\frac{v^2-v_0^2}{2a}

And taking upwards direction positive and imposing final velocity 0m/s (for maximum height), we have:

d=\frac{-v_0^2}{2a}=\frac{-(100m/s)^2}{2(-9,8m/s^2)}=510.2m

For the time we use:

t=\frac{v-v_0}{a}=\frac{-v_0}{a}=\frac{-(100m/s)}{(-9.8m/s^2)}=10.2s

jasenka [17]

Answer:

\lambda= 506.25 nm

Explanation:

Diffraction is observed when a wave is distorted by an obstacle whose dimensions are comparable to the wavelength. The simplest case corresponds to the Fraunhofer diffraction, in which the obstacle is a long, narrow slit, so we can ignore the effects of extremes.

This is a simple case, in which we can use the Fraunhofer single slit diffraction equation:

y=\frac{m \lambda D}{a}

Where:

y=Displacement\hspace{3}from\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} centerline \hspace{3}for \hspace{3}minimum\hspace{3} intensity =1.35mm\\\lambda=Light\hspace{3} wavelength \\D=Distance\hspace{3}between\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}screen\hspace{3}and\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}slit=2m\\a=width\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}slit=0.750mm\\m=Order\hspace{3}number=1

Solving for λ:

\lambda=\frac{y*a}{mD}

Replacing the data provided by the problem:

\lambda=\frac{(1.35\times 10^{-3})*(0.750\times 10^{-3})}{1*2} =5.0625\times 10^{-7}m =506.25nm
