You have probably noticed that carrying a person in a pool of water is much easier than carrying a person through air. To unders

tand why, find the buoyant force exerted by air and by water on the person. Assume the average volume of a person is 0.092 m3, and that the person is submerged in air and water respectively. (Give the magnitude.)

Answer:

The answer is "0.91238 and 744.8"

Explanation:

In this scenario it is easier to take a person to the water-pool than to transport the people in the air, as the person's strength is increased by water upwards:

f_b \to m \to mg =person \\\\F_B \ in\  air = v\ & air\  g \\\\

               =0.076 \times 1.225 \times 9.8 \\\\ =0.91238 \ N\\\\

F_B \ in \ water = v  \& water \ g \\\\

                    =0.076 \times 1000 \times 9.8\\\\= 744.8 \ N\\

A professor sits at rest on a stool that can rotate without friction. The rotational inertia of the professor-stool system is 4.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

\omega=0.37 [rad/s]  

Explanation:

We can use the conservation of the angular momentum.

L=mvR

I\omega=mvR

Now the Inertia is I(professor_stool) plus mR², that is the momentum inertia of a hoop about central axis.

So we will have:

(I_{proffesor - stool}+mR^{2})\omega=mvR

Now, we just need to solve it for ω.

\omega=\frac{mvR}{I_{proffesor-stool}+mR^{2}}

\omega=\frac{1.5*2.7*0.4}{4.1+1.5*0.4^{2}}      

\omega=0.37 [rad/s]  

I hope it helps you!

Which of the following is true concerning hurricanes?
densk [106]

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

B. is correct because every time usually when a hurricane hits it causes flooding causing multiple homes to be ruined. It is a known fact that usually hurricanes start close or in along with tornadoes, the water, meaning once they hit land they have some water to flood that land with.

C. is absolutely false hurricanes have VERY strong wind gusts.

D. is absolutely wrong they do alter landscapes by ripping trees and plants and houses out of the ground making the landscapes look different.

A. is wrong they tend to deposit and remove sediment evenly.
