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.

The mixture you separated was a mixture of iron filings, sand, and salt. Based on your understanding of matter, is this mixture
V125BC [204]

Answer: Heterogeneous mixture - the parts are not uniformly mixed.

A mixture contains components having distinct chemical properties. There are two types of mixtures: homogeneous and heterogeneous. In a homogeneous mixture there is uniform distribution of components. we cannot distinguish one portion of the mixture from another. for example salt mixed in water. In heterogeneous mixture, the components are not uniformly mixed. hence, we are able to distinguish different parts of a mixture, like the mixture of iron, sand and salt given in this question.

Suppose you had the same laser and diffraction grating from the previous question but now you had a flat detection screen. You w
kolezko [41]

Answer:

measuring the zero intensity point, we can deduce the movement of the screen.

The distance from the center of the pattern to the first zero is proportional to the distance to the screen,

Explanation:

The expression for the diffraction phenomenon is

           a sin θ = m λ

for the case of destructive interference. In general the detection screen is quite far from the grid, let's use trigonometry to find the angles

           tan θ = y / L

     

in these experiments the angles are small

          tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

          sunt θ = y / L

we substitute

          a \frac{y}{L}= m  λ

           y = m L λ / a

therefore, by carefully measuring the zero intensity point, we can deduce the movement of the screen.

 

The distance from the center of the pattern to the first zero is proportional to the distance to the screen, so you can know where the displacement occurs, it should be clarified that these displacements are very small so the measurement system must be capable To measure quantities on the order of hundredths of a millimeter, a micrometer screw could be used.

You went 100 miles north and 14
skad [1K]

Answer:

82 degrees

Explanation:

consider your staying point to be the center of a circle. this center has the coordinates (0, 0).

the radius of the circle is the distance you walked East (14 miles).

I assume your teacher means as "angle of displacement" the angle between the East-West line going through your starting point and the direct line from your starting point to your current position.

then the 100 miles North is tan(displacement angle)×14.

as it is the same, if you first went North and then East, or the other way around. you end up at the same point, with the same coordinates.

so, again.

100 = 14×tan(angle)

tan(angle) = 100/14 = 50/7 = 7.142857...

the displacement angle is then 82 degrees.
