An actuator used in a prosthetic arm can produce different amounts of force by changing the voltage of the power supply. The force and voltage satisfy the linear relation
(a) Find the force produced by the actuator when supplied with 6.0 V.
(b) What voltage is needed to achieve force of 5.0 N?
(c) Using the results of par1 (a) and (b), sketch the graph of F as a function of voltages V. Use the appropriate scales and clearly label the slope and the results of parts (a) and (h).

- The kinetic energy E of an object varies jointly with the object’s mass m and the square of the object’s velocity v . An object with a mass of 50 kilograms traveling at 16 meters per second has a kinetic energy of 6400 joules. What is the kinetic energy of an object with a mass of 70 kilograms traveling at 20 meters per second?arrow_forwardHydraulic pressure of 705.0 pounds per square inch is exerted on a 3.150-inch diameter piston. Find the total force exerted on the piston. Round the answer to the nearest pound.arrow_forward
