With what force (per hand) does a man need to lift to keep the wheelbarrow in balance?The total weight of the cart and the load is 100 kg and at the point shown in the center of gravityAnd the right answer about this is 12.5kg per hand
ANSWER
122.5N per hand
EXPLANATION
First, we have to draw a free body diagram,
A wheelbarrow is an example of a lever but in this case, both forces are on the same side of the pivot - which is the wheel. To keep the wheelbarrow in balance, the output force, Fo, must be equal to the weight of the wheelbarrow,
[tex]F_o=m\cdot g=100\operatorname{kg}\cdot9.8m/s^2=980N[/tex]Using the mechanical advantage relation between the input and output forces and the lever arms,
[tex]\frac{F_o}{F_i}=\frac{l_i}{l_o}_{}[/tex]We have to find Fi. To solve for Fi, first raise both sides to the exponent of -1 - in other words, flip both fractions,
[tex]\frac{F_i}{F_o}=\frac{l_o}{l_i}[/tex]And multiply both sides by Fo,
[tex]F_i=F_o\cdot\frac{l_o}{l_i}[/tex]The output force is the one found before, 980N. Then, the length of the lever arm of the output force is the distance from the center of gravity to the wheel, 0.5m, and the length of the lever arm of the input force is the distance from the man's hands to the wheel, 2m,
[tex]F_i=980N\cdot\frac{0.5m}{2m}=\frac{980N}{4}=245N[/tex]The total force the man has to make is 245N. Assuming each hand can support the same weight, then each hand should be doing 122.5N of force to keep the wheelbarrow in balance.
Questions : 1. What is the penguin’s average velocity during the chase? 2. What is the penguin’s average speed during the chase?
Given:
• Distance traveled rightward = 6 m
,• Distance traveled leftward = 10 m
,• Total time, t = 30 s
Let's solve for the following:
• (1). What is the penguin’s average velocity during the chase?
To find the average velocity, apply the formula:
[tex]v=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]Where:
• v is the average velocity in m/s
,• d is the displacement
,• t is the total time in seconds.
The displacement given a 6 meters rightward move and 10 m leftward move is:
d = 6m + (-10 m) = 6m - 10m = -4 m
Thus, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} v=\frac{-4}{30} \\ \\ v=-0.13\text{m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]The average velocity is -0.13 m/s.
• (2). What is the penguin’s average speed during the chase?
To find the average speed, we have:
[tex]v=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]v is the average speed in m/s
d is the total distance = 6m + 10m = 16m
t is the total time = 30 s
Thus, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} v=\frac{16}{30} \\ \\ v=0.53\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]The average speed is 0.53 m/s.
ANSWER:
0. Average velocity = -0.13 m/s
,1. Average speed = 0.53 m/s
Use Polya's four-step problem-solving strategy to solve the following exercise.A frog is at the bottom of a 13-foot well. Each time the frog leaps, it moves up 3 feet. If the frog has not reached the top of the well, then the frog slides back 1 foot before it is ready to make another leap. How many leaps will the frog need to escape the well?______ leaps
ANSWER:
6 leaps
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Keep adding 2 until the sum is 10 and count the number of 2 that has been added. Then add 1 to that number, as the last jump will cover the remaining 3 feet and the frog will reach the top of the well.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2+2+2+2+2=10 \\ 5\text{ leaps} \end{gathered}[/tex]Carry out the plan
The number of 2 added is 5.
Add 1 to the number 5.
5+1 = 6
Hence, the total number of leaps is 7.
For 1st leap
3- 1 = 2
For 2nd leap
2+3 = 5-1 = 4
For 3rd leap
4+3=7-1 = 6
For 4th leap
6+3=9-1 = 8
For 5th leap
8+3=11-1=10
For 6th leap
10+3 = 13
Hence, the total number of leaps is 6

Even when the head is held erect, as in the figure below, its center of mass is not directly over the principal point of support (the atlanto-occipital joint). The muscles in the back of the neck musttherefore exert a force to keep it erect. That is why your head falls forward when you fall asleep in class. If the perpendicular distance between the line of action for the weight of the head and thepivot point is rw = 2.4 cm and the perpendicular distance between the line of action for theforce the muscles exert on the head and the pivot point is rMi=5.1 cm. determine each or thefollowina. (Assume the weight of the head is 50 N.)
We are asked to determine the force required by the neck muscle in order to keep the head in equilibrium. To do that we will add the torques produced by the muscle force and the weight of the head. We will use torque in the clockwise direction to be negative, therefore, we have:
[tex]\Sigma T=r_{M\perp}(F_M)-r_{W\perp}(W)[/tex]Since we want to determine the forces when the system is at equilibrium this means that the total sum of torque is zero:
[tex]r_{M\perp}(F_M)-r_{W\perp}(W)=0[/tex]Now, we solve for the force of the muscle. First, we add the torque of the weight to both sides:
[tex]r_{M\perp}(F_M)=r_{W\perp}(W)[/tex]Now, we divide by the distance of the muscle:
[tex](F_M)=\frac{r_{W\perp}(W)}{r_{M\perp}}[/tex]Now, we substitute the values:
[tex]F_M=\frac{(2.4cm)(50N)}{5.1cm}[/tex]Now, we solve the operations:
[tex]F_M=23.53N[/tex]Therefore, the force exerted by the muscles is 23.53 Newtons.
Part B. To determine the force on the pivot we will add the forces we add the vertical forces:
[tex]\Sigma F_v=F_j-F_M-W[/tex]Since there is no vertical movement the sum of vertical forces is zero:
[tex]F_j-F_M-W=0[/tex]Now, we add the force of the muscle and the weight to both sides to solve for the force on the pivot:
[tex]F_j=F_M+W[/tex]Now, we plug in the values:
[tex]F_j=23.53N+50N[/tex]Solving the operations:
[tex]F_j=73.53N[/tex]Therefore, the force is 73.53 Newtons.
How much heat is necessary to change 500 g of ice at - 10°C to water at 20°C ?
Apply the specific heat equation:
q= mcΔT
q= heat energy
m= mass = 500g
c = specific heat capacity = 4.186 J/gC
ΔT= change in temperature = 30°
q= 500g x 4.186 J/gC x 30 C = 62,790 Joules
Then apply the latent heat formula:
q= mL
L = latent heat fusion, vaporization, etc for the substance = 334 J/g
q = 500 x 334 J/g = 167,000 J
Total q = 62,790 + 167,000 = 229,790 J

Explanation:
The period of oscillation T, the spring constant k, and the mass m are related by the following equation.
[tex]T=2\pi\sqrt[]{\frac{m}{k}}[/tex]So, solving for m, we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{T}{2\pi}=\sqrt[]{\frac{m}{k}} \\ \frac{T^2}{4\pi^2}=\frac{m}{k} \\ \frac{T^2k}{4\pi^2}=m \\ m=\frac{T^2k}{4\pi^2} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, replacing T = 11 s and k = 10 N/m, we get:

The angular speed of the long-play (LP) in rad/s is 3.49rads/s and its period in seconds is 1.80 seconds.
How is angular speed and period calculated?To convert the angular speed from revolution per minutes (rpm) to seconds the following formula is used:
ω = (k revolution/60 seconds) x (2π/1 revolution)
ω = 2πk/60seconds (k x 2π/T in seconds)
where, k = constant in rpm, 33 1/3rpm = 33.3333rpm
ω = 2π33.3333/60 = 209.4374/60
ω = 3.49rad/s
For period in seconds, ω = 2π/T
where, T = period and ω = angular speed, 3.49rad/s
To find T, T = 2π/ω
T = 2π/3.49rad/s
T = 1.80s

Julietta's ball rolls into a long, straight upward incline with a speed of 3.24 m/s and accelerates at -0.234 m/s/s for 2.56 seconds until it reaches the top of the incline and then continues along an elevated section. Determine the length of the incline?
The distance that is covered by the ball is 22.4 m.
What is the length of the incline?We know that the length of the incline is the distance that have been travelled by the ball as it rolls up the incline. We have to use the formula for motion which is;
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
a = acceleration

Another change that happened around the same time as discovery of fire was that their diets moved from nuts and berries to include meat. So, the correct option is (A)
What was the influence of Fire on Human Evolution?Humans must have learned to handle fire very early in human history. Most likely due to natural sources such as lightning strikes and naturally occurring forest fires. It wasn't until much later that mankind invented how to make fire. Hominidae (genus Homo) appeared in East Africa about 2.5 million years ago, and fire is closely associated with many stages of evolution. The ability to cook food is thought to have led to the rise of Homo erectus from its more primitive ancestors.
Cooked foods provide much more energy than raw foods with low food consumption. This may have given time to develop social skills too. Cooked foods also detoxify potentially harmful bacteria. This has increased the variety of food available.
Cooking with fire is thought to have developed a large brain. These factors are thought to have driven the evolution of other human traits, including large brains and bodies, small teeth, modern limb proportions, and many social aspects of human-related behavior ( Wrangham et al. 1999). Indeed, by softening food, fire may have had a significant impact on extending human life beyond the age of healthy teeth.

From the given answer choices, let's select the best statement that best describes refraction of a wave.
Refraction of a wave can be said to be a change in direction of waves when they move from one medium to another.
As wave move from
One end of a thin rod is attached to a pivot about which it can rotate without friction. Air resistance is absent. The rod has a length of 0.48 m and is uniform. It is hanging vertically straight downward. The end of the rod nearest the floor is given a linear speed V so that the rod begins to rotate upward about the pivot. What must be the value of V such that the rod comes to a momentary halt in a straight up orientation, exactly opposite to its initial orientation?
ANSWER:
5.32 m/s
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
We can determine the velocity from the following equation (initial kinetic energy:
[tex]\frac{1}{6}\cdot v^2_0=g\cdot L[/tex]Where L is the length of the rod and g would be gravity, we replace and calculate the value of the initial velocity:
[tex]\begin{gathered} v^2_0=6\cdot9.81\cdot0.48 \\ v^{}_0=\sqrt[]{28.2528} \\ v_0=5.32\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]The velocity is 5.32 m/s
