Answer:

Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) is used to measure body composition.

Explanation:

As a standard method for body composition analysis, DEXA has high accuracy along with hydrodensitometry. Its advantage is that it can measure the body composition of bone density, body fat and muscle mass for different parts.

What momentum does a 70 kg person running 10m/s (a fast sprint) have ?

gogolik [260]

Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

Momentum = (70 kg) x (10 m/s)

<em>Momentum = 700 kg-m/s</em>

A sled of mass 2.12 kg has an initial speed of 5.49 m/s across a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between

Darya [45]

Answer:

The speed of the sled is 3.56 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.12 kg

Initial speed = 5.49 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.229

Distance = 3.89 m

We need to calculate the acceleration of sled

Using formula of acceleration

$a = \dfrac{F}{m}$

Where, F = frictional force

m = mass

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{\mu mg}{m}$

$a=\mu g$

$a=0.229\times9.8$

$a=2.244\ m/s^2$

We need to calculate the speed of the sled

Using equation of motion

$v^2=u^2-2as$

Where, v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

s = distance

Put the value in the equation

$v ^2=(5.49)^2-2\times2.244\times3.89$

$v=\sqrt{(5.49)^2-2\times2.244\times3.89}$

$v=3.56\ m/s$

Hence, The speed of the sled is 3.56 m/s.

The resistivity of gold is at room temperature. A gold wire that is 0.9 mm in diameter and 14 cm long carries a current of 940 m

IgorC [24]

Answer:

0.0360531138247 V/m

Explanation:

$\rho$ = Resistivity of gold = $2.44\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega .m$ (General value)

I = Current = 940 mA

d = Diameter = 0.9 mm

A = Area = $\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2$

E = Electric field

Resistivity is given by

$\rho=\dfrac{EA}{I}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{\rho I}{A}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{2.44\times 10^{-8}\times 940\times 10^{-3}}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(0.9\times 10^{-3})^2}\\\Rightarrow E=0.0360531138247\ V/m$

The electric field in the wire is 0.0360531138247 V/m
