We have,

Jane mass is 55 kg
His body covered with 700 nails all of them having a surface area of 1.00 mm² each = 700 × 1 = 700 mm² = 700/1000000 = 7/10000

We know that,

Pressure = Force/Area

Let's calculate force as we already have area;

F = ma
F = 55 × 9.8 { Acceleration due to gravity }
F = 539 N

Now, if should she would be on 700 nails then pressure will be;

P = F/A
P = 539/7 × 10000
P = 5390000/7
P = 770,000 Pascal

And if should would be on a 1 nail only,

P = F/A
P = 539/1 × 1000000
P = 539000000 Pascal

As, you can notice yourself that the pressure will be so high with only 1 nail and because of this, nail will pass through jane's body.

Why are there variations of traits within a population?

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The variation and distribution of traits in a population depend on genetic and environmental factors. Genetic variation can result from mutations caused by environmental factors or errors in DNA replication, or from chromosomes swapping sections during meiosis.

The energy consumed by a home during a month is 90 kWh, how many Joules are we talking about? a good explanation please is for t

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

3.24×10⁸ J, or 324 MJ

Explanation:

"kWh" is a kilowatt-hour. It's the energy used by 1 kilowatt of power after one hour.

A kilowatt is a kilojoule per second.

90 kWh

= 90 kW × 1 hr

= 90 kJ/s × 1 hr

= 90 kJ/s × 3600 s

= 324,000 kJ

= 324,000,000 J

The energy is 3.24×10⁸ J, or 324 megajoules.

A 6.72 particle moves through a region of space where an electric field of magnitude 1270 N/C points in the positive direction,

Romashka [77]

Answer:

$v_{y} = -104 m/s$

Explanation:

Using:

Force = electric field * charge

$F=e*q$

Force = magnitude of charge * velocity * magnetic field * sin tither

$F_{x2}= |q|*v*B*sin \alpha$

Force on particle due to electric field:

$F_{x1}= E*q = (1270N/C)*(-6.72*10^{-6} ) = -8.53*10^{-3}$

Force on particle due to magnetic field:

$F_{x2}= |q|*v*B*sin \alpha = (6.72*10^{-6} )*(1.15)*(sin90)*v = (7.728*10^{-6})*(v)$

$F_{x2}$ is in the positive x direction as $F_{x1}$ is in the negative x direction while net force is in the positive x direction.

Magnetic field is in the positive Z direction, net force is in the positive x direction.

According to right hand rule, Force acting on particle is perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field and velocity of particle. This would mean the force is along the y-axis. As this is a negatively charged particle, the direction of the velocity of the particle is reversed. Therefore velocity of particle, v, has to be in the negative y direction.

Now,

$F_{xnet}- F_{x1 } = F_{x2 }$

$(6.13*10^{-3}) - (8.53*10^{-3} ) = (7.728*10^{-6})*(v)$

$v = (F_{xnet} - F_{x1}) / (F_{x2} )$

$=((6.13*10^{-3} ) - (8.53*10^{-3})) / (7.728*10^{-6})$

$= (- 104.25) m/s$

$v_{y} = -104 m/s$
