Answer the question in full details, thank you very much, Answer on the correct significant figures: A metal can containing condensed mushroom soup has a mass of m = 247 g, a height of h = 15.7 cm,and a diameter of D = 6.67 cm. Itis placed at rest on its side at the top of a L = 3.11 m-long incline thatis at an angle of Angle = 24.3 deg to the horizontal; the can is then released to roll down the incline, reachingthe bottom t = 1.53 s later. Assuming energy is conserved, calculate the moment of inertia of the can inkg-cm^2 (not kg-m^2).

A.) A 580 g squirrel with a surface area of 925 cm2 falls from a 4.4-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use the drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver. Assume that the squirrel can be approximated as a rectanglar prism with cross-sectional area of width 11.5 cm and length 23 cm. Note, the squirrel may not reach terminal velocity by the time it hits the ground. Give the squirrel's terminal velocity, not it's velocity as it hits the ground.) (m/s) B.) What will be the velocity of a 58.0 kg person hitting the ground, assuming no drag contribution in such a short distance? (m/s)
An 85 kg man stands in a very strong wind moving at 14 m/s at torso height. As you know, he will need to lean in to the wind, and we can model the situation to see why. Assume that the man has a mass of 85 kg, with a center of gravity 1.0 m above the ground. The action of the wind on his torso, which we approximate as a cylinder 50 cm wide and 90 cm long centered 1.2 m above the ground, produces a force that tries to tip him over backward. To keep from falling over, he must lean forward. a. What is the magnitude of the torque provided by the wind force? Take the pivot point at his feet. Assume that he is standing vertically.b. At what angle to the vertical must the man lean to provide a gravitational torque that is equal to this torque due to the wind force?
African elephants are the largest land animals. They consume approximately 10% of their body weight in food each day, which for an adult male, can be 1000 lb. of vegetation! Their diet consists mostly of grasses, bamboo, tree bark, and fruit. They also like to dine on tree leaves. To reach them, they often stand up on their hind legs and extend their trunks (see the figure). The elephant in the figure is in equilibrium. The location of the elephant's center of mass is shown, and the axis of rotation has been chosen to correspond to the hip joint. The forces in the elephant's free-body diagram are shown, and there is a static friction force between the elephant's back feet and the ground. Use the following information and calculate the magnitude of the tension in the elephant's trunk T (m = 4540 kg, FN = rfs = 133 cm, rcg = 76.0 cm, r = 229 cm).

A wind turbine on a wind farm turns in response to a force of high-speed air resistance, R=0.5DρAυ2. The power available is P=Rυ=0.5Dρπr2υ3., where .υ is the wind speed and we have assumed a circular face for the wind turbine of radius r. Take the drag coefficient as D=1.0 and the density of air from the front endpaper . For a wind turbine having r=1.5 m, calculate the power available with (a) υ=8.0 m/s and (b) υ=24.0 m/s. The power delivered to the generator is limited by the efficiency of the system, about 25%. For comparison, a large American home uses about 2 kW of electric power.
