As a woman walks, her entire weight is momentarily placed on one heel of her high-heeled shoes. Calculate the pressure exerted o
astraxan [27]

Answer:

3.6 x 10⁶ Pa

Explanation:

A = Area of the heel = 1.50 cm² = 1.50 x 10⁻⁴ m²

m = mass of the woman = 55.0 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Force of gravity on the heel is given as

F = mg

Inserting the values

F = (55) (9.8)

F = 539 N

Pressure exerted on the floor is given as

P = \frac{F}{A}

P = \frac{539}{1.5\times 10^{-4}}

P = 3.6 x 10⁶ Pa

"A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water. What is the buoyant force on the block due to the water? The density of
Alja [10]

Answer:

buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N

Explanation:

We know that

buoyant force(F_B) on a block= weight of the block in air (actual weight) - weight of block in water.

Given:

A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water.

F_B =  40-30= 10 N

therefore,  buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N

What is the energy stored between 2 Carbon nuclei that are 1.00 nm apart from each other? HINT: Carbon nuclei have 6 protons and
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A. 8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J

Explanation:

Given that:

p = magnitude of charge on a proton = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

k = Boltzmann constant = 9\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

r = distance between the two carbon nuclei = 1.00 nm = 1.00\times 10^{-9}\ m

Since a carbon nucleus contains 6 protons.

So, charge on a carbon nucleus is q = 6p=6\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C=9.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

We know that the electric potential energy between two charges q and Q separated by a distance r is given by:

U = \dfrac{kQq}{r}

So, the potential energy between the two nuclei of carbon is as below:

U= \dfrac{kqq}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{kq^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{9\times10^9\times (9.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.0\times 10^{-9}}\\\Rightarrow U =8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J

Hence, the energy stored between two nuclei of carbon is 8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J.
