Answer: a) Case 2 b) Case 1
Explanation:
a) By definition, the magnitude of a torque, referred to a given point, is expressed as the product of the force that causes the torque, times the perpendicular distance to the reference point.
If we assume that the only force acting on the arm is the weight of the arm, and that this is concentrated in a point in the center of it (taking the arm as a solid bar with the center of mass at the mid-point), clearly the torque will be the greatest when the force be exactly perpendicular, which is the case of the arm placed straight out parallel to the ground (Case 2).
b) As the torque and the angular acceleration are directly proportional each other (being the rotational inertia the proportionality constant) the angular acceleration will be maximum when torque be maximum also, which is the case that the arm begins to swim, due to the perpendicular distance to the shoulder is the maximum possible (Case 1).
Answer:
Explanation:
The different types of radiation are defined by the the amount of energy found in the photons. Radio waves have photons with low energies, microwave photons have a little more energy than radio waves, infrared photons have still more, then visible, ultraviolet, X-rays, and, the most energetic of all, gamma-rays
Answer:
114.44 J
Explanation:
From Hook's Law,
F = ke................. Equation 1
Where F = Force required to stretch the spring, k = spring constant, e = extension.
make k the subject of the equation
k = F/e.............. Equation 2
Given: F = 10 lb = (10×4.45) N = 44.5 N, e = 4 in = (4×0.254) = 1.016 m.
Substitute into equation 2
k = 44.5/1.016
k = 43.799 N/m
Work done in stretching the 9 in beyond its natural length
W = 1/2ke²................. Equation 3
Given: e = 9 in = (9×0.254) = 2.286 m, k = 43.799 N/m
Substitute into equation 3
W = 1/2×43.799×2.286²
W = 114.44 J
D transferring electrons because that causes electricity
I had the same question on a test, the answer is A. Both solar and hydroelectric energy do not emit air pollutants, and although geothermal energy releases some gases, biomass is the biggest polluter.<span>
