Answer: c. 1.3 m/s^2
Explanation:
When he is at rest, is weight can be calculated as:
W = g*m
where:
m = mass of the man
g = gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2
We know that at rest his weight is W = 824N, then we have:
824N = m*9.8m/s^2
824N/(9.8m/s^2) = m = 84.1 kg
Now, when the elevators moves up with an acceleration a, the acceleration that the man inside fells down is g + a.
Then the new weight is calculated as:
W = m*(g + a)
and we know that in this case:
W = 932N
g = 9.8m/s^2
m = 84.1 kg
Then we can find the value of a if we solve:
932N = 84.1kg*(9.8m/s^2 + a)
932N/84.1kg = 11.1 m/s^2 = 9.8m/s^2 + a
11.1 m/s^2 - 9.8m/s^2 = a = 1.3 m/s^2
The correct option is C
The equivalent resistance of several devices connected in parallel is given by

where

are the resistances of the various devices. We can see that every time we add a new device in parallel, the term

increases, therefore the equivalent resistance of the circuit

decreases.
But Ohm's law:

tells us that if the equivalent resistance decreases, the total current in the circuit increases. The power dissipated through the circuit (and so, the heat produced) depends on the square of the current:

therefore if there are too many devices connected in parallel, this can be a problem because there could be too much power dissipated (and too much heat) through the circuit.
Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy
Gravitational potential energy<span> is </span>energy<span> an object possesses because of its position in a </span>gravitational<span> field. The most common use of </span>gravitational potential energy<span> is for an object near the surface of the Earth where the </span>gravitational<span> acceleration can be assumed to be constant at about 9.8 m/s</span>2<span>.</span>
Answer:
im sure your already past this but it's E.
Explanation:
This is because in this case potential energy is linear to height, which means that the higher the more potential energy.
