Chapter 26, Problem 70MSPP

Halogen Bulbs

Halogen bulbs have some differences from standard incandescent lightbulbs. They are generally smaller, the filament runs at a higher temperature, and they have a quartz (rather than glass) envelope. They may also operate at lower voltage. Consider a 12 V, 50 W halogen bulb for use in a desk lamp. The lamp plugs into a 120 V, 60 Hz outlet, and it has a transformer in its base.

5.78 .. DATA BIO The Flying Leap of a Flea. High-speed motion pictures (3500 frames/second) of a jumping 210 μg flea yielded the data to plot the flea's acceleration as a function of time, as shown in Fig. P5.78. (See "The Flying Leap of the Flea," by M. Rothschild et al., Scientific American, November 1973.) This flea was about 2 mm long and jumped at a nearly vertical takeoff angle. Using the graph, (a) find the initial net external force on the flea. How does it compare to the flea's weight? (b) Find the maximum net external force on this jump- ing flea. When does this maximum force occur? (c) Use the graph to find the flea's maximum speed. Figure P5.78 150 a/g 100 50 1.0 1.5 0.5 Time (ms)

5.4 ⚫ BIO Injuries to the Spinal Column. In the treatment of spine injuries, it is often necessary to provide tension along the spi- nal column to stretch the backbone. One device for doing this is the Stryker frame (Fig. E5.4a, next page). A weight W is attached to the patient (sometimes around a neck collar, Fig. E5.4b), and fric- tion between the person's body and the bed prevents sliding. (a) If the coefficient of static friction between a 78.5 kg patient's body and the bed is 0.75, what is the maximum traction force along the spi- nal column that W can provide without causing the patient to slide? (b) Under the conditions of maximum traction, what is the tension in each cable attached to the neck collar? Figure E5.4 (a) (b) W 65° 65°

The correct answers are a) 367 hours, b) 7.42*10^9 Bq, c) 1.10*10^10 Bq, and d) 7.42*10^9 Bq. Yes I am positve they are correct. Please dont make any math errors to force it to fit. Please dont act like other solutiosn where you vaugley state soemthing and then go thus, *correct answer*. I really want to learn how to properly solve this please.
