The weight of a person increase when the elevator is going up.

<h3>Weight of the person in the elevator</h3>

The weight of the person in the elevator is calculated as follows;

<h3>When the person is going up</h3>

F = ma + mg

F = m(a + g)

where;

  • a is acceleration of the person
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

<h3>When the person is going down</h3>

F = mg - ma

F = m(g - a)

Thus, the weight of a person increase when the elevator is going up.

A 0.105- kg hockey puck moving at 24 m/s is caught and held by a 75-kg goalie at rest. With what speed does the goalie slide on
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

<u><em>0.03 m/s</em></u>

Explanation:

<em>Applying law of conservation of momentum, </em>

  • <em>m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v</em>
  • <em>0.105(24) + 75(0) = (0.105 + 75)v</em>
  • <em>75.105v = 2.52</em>
  • <em>v = 2.52/75.105</em>
  • <em>v = </em><u><em>0.03 m/s</em></u>

A wrestler weighs in for the first match on the moon. will the athlete weigh more or less on the moon than he does on Earth?
Firdavs [7]
The moon<span> is 1/4 the size of </span>Earth<span>, so the </span>moon's<span> gravity is much less than the </span>earth's gravity, 83.3% (or 5/6) less to be exact. Finally, "weight<span>" is a measure of the gravitational pull between two objects. So of course you would </span>weigh<span> much less on the </span>moon<span>.</span>
