Answer:

Energy expenditure in K cals/min = 10 K cals /min (approximately)

Explanation:

As we know

Energy expenditure in Kcal/min= METs x 3.5 x Body weight (kg) / 200

Given is METs=7.6

Weight of Jazz= 172lb=78.02kg

putting the values in formula,

Energy expenditure in K cals/min= 7.6 x 3.5 x 78.02 / 200

=10.38 K cals /min

=10 K cals /min (approximately)

Therefore, Energy expenditure in K cals/min by Jazz will be approximately 10 K cals /min

What is the magnitude of g at a height above Earth's surface where free-fall acceleration equals 6.5m/s^2?

prohojiy [21]

You've given the answer, right there in your question.

The "magnitude of gravity" is described in terms of the acceleration
due to it, and you just told us what that is.

We can also notice that the figure you gave is about 0.66 of the
acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface. That tells us that
the distance from the Earth's center at that height is about

(1 / √0.66) = 1.23 times

the Earth's radius, so the height is about 910 miles above the surface.

A child's top is held in place upright on a frictionless surface. The axle has a radius of ????=3.21 mm . Two strings are wrappe

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Angular momentum, $L=6.47\times 10^{-3}\ m$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the axle, $r=3.21\ mm=3.21\times 10^{-3}\ m$

Tension acting on the top, T = 3.15 N

Time taken by the string to unwind, t = 0.32 s

We know that the rate of change of angular momentum is equal to the torque acting on the torque. The relation is given by :

$\tau=\dfrac{dL}{dt}$

Torque acting on the top is given by :

$\tau=F\times r$

Here, F is the tension acting on it. Torque acting on the top is given by :

$\tau=2F\times r$

$2T\times r=\dfrac{L}{t}$

$L=2T\times r \times t$

$L=2\times 3.15\times 3.21\times 10^{-3}\times 0.32$

$L=6.47\times 10^{-3}\ m$

So, the angular momentum acquired by the top is $6.47\times 10^{-3}\ m$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A slender rod is 80.0 cm long and has mass 0.390 kg . A small 0.0200-kg sphere is welded to one end of the rod, and a small 0.05

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer

given,

length of slender rod =80 cm = 0.8 m

mass of rod = 0.39 Kg

mass of small sphere = 0.0200 kg

mass of another sphere weld = 0.0500 Kg

calculating the moment of inertia of the system

$I = \dfrac{ML^2}{12}+\dfrac{m_1L^2}{4}+\dfrac{mL^2}{4}$

$I = \dfrac{0.39\times 0.8^2}{12}+\dfrac{0.02\times 0.8^2}{4}+\dfrac{0.05\times 0.8^2}{4}$

$I =0.032\ kg.m^2$

using conservation of energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = (m_1-m_2)g\dfrac{L}{2}$

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{(m_1-m_2)gL}{I}}$

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{(0.05-0.02)\times 9.8 \times 0.8}{0.032}}$

$\omega=2.71 \rad/s$

we know,

v = r ω

$v = \dfrac{L}{2} \times 2.71$

$v = \dfrac{0.8}{2} \times 2.71$

v = 1.084 m/s

A stone tumbles into a mine shaft strikes bottom after falling for 4.2 seconds. How deep is the mine shaft

ziro4ka [17]

$d = u \times t \: + \frac{1}{2} \times a \times {t}^{2}$
Since initial velocity is zero hence , u = 0

=> d = 1/2 * a * t2

$d = 0.5 \times 9.8 \times {4.2}^{2}$
on solving we get

d = 86.436 metres

Note ; Here Gravitational Acceleration is take as , g = 9.8 m/s2
