The speed of the elevator at the beginning of the 8 m descent is nearly 4 m/s. Hence, option A is the correct answer.
We are given that-
the mass of the elevator (m) = 1000 kg ;
the distance the elevator decelerated to be y = 8m ;
the tension is T = 11000 N;
let us determine the acceleration 'a' by using Newton's second law of motion.
∑Fy = ma
W - T = ma
(1000kg x 9.8 m/s² ) - 11000N = 1000 kg x a
9800 - 11000 = 1000
a = - 1.2 m/s²
Using the equation of kinematics to determine the initial velocity.
² =
² + 2ay
= √ ( 2 x 1.2m/s² x 8 m )
= √19.2 m²/s²
= 4.38 m/s ≈ 4 m/s
Hence, the initial velocity of the elevator is 4m/s.

Answer:
Explanation:
Mass of a proton,
Mass of an electron,
The distance between the electron and the proton is,
We need to find the mutual attractive gravitational force between the electron and proton. The gravitational force is given by :
Where G is the universal Gravitational constant
So, the force between the electron and proton is .
Answer:
a) the distance that the solid steel sphere sliding down the ramp without friction is 1.55 m
b) the distance that a solid steel sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.31 m
c) the distance that a spherical steel shell with shell thickness 1.0 mm rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.2 m
d) the distance that a solid aluminum sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.31 m
Explanation:
Given that;
height of the ramp h1 = 0.40 m
foot of the ramp above the floor h2 = 1.50 m
assuming R = 15 mm = 0.015 m
density of steel = 7.8 g/cm³
density of aluminum = 2.7 g/cm³
a) distance that the solid steel sphere sliding down the ramp without friction;
we know that
distance = speed × time
d = vt --------let this be equ 1
according to the law of conservation of energy
mgh₁ = mv²
v² = 2gh₁
v = √(2gh₁)
from the second equation; s = ut + at²
that is; t = √(2h₂/g)
so we substitute for equations into equation 1
d = √(2gh₁) × √(2h₂/g)
d = √(2gh₁) × √(2h₂/g)
d = 2√( h₁h₂ )
we plug in our values
d = 2√( 0.40 × 1.5 )
d = 1.55 m
Therefore, the distance that the solid steel sphere sliding down the ramp without friction is 1.55 m
b)
distance that a solid steel sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping;
we know that;
mgh₁ = mv² +
ω²
mgh₁ = mv² +
(
mR²) ω²
v = √( gh₁ )
so we substitute √( gh₁ ) for v and t = √(2h₂/g) in equation 1;
d = vt
d = √( gh₁ ) × √(2h₂/g)
d = 1.69√( h₁h₂ )
we substitute our values
d = 1.69√( 0.4 × 1.5 )
d = 1.31 m
Therefore, the distance that a solid steel sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.31 m
c)
distance that a spherical steel shell with shell thickness 1.0 mm rolling down the ramp without slipping;
we know that;
mgh₁ = mv² +
ω²
mgh₁ = mv² +
(
mR²) ω²
v = √( gh₁ )
so we substitute √( gh₁ ) for v and t = √(2h₂/g) in equation 1 again
d = vt
d = √( gh₁ ) × √(2h₂/g)
d = 1.549√( h₁h₂ )
d = 1.549√( 0.4 × 1.5 )
d = 1.2 m
Therefore, the distance that a spherical steel shell with shell thickness 1.0 mm rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.2 m
d) distance that a solid aluminum sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping.
we know that;
mgh₁ = mv² +
ω²
mgh₁ = mv² +
(
mR²) ω²
v = √( gh₁ )
so we substitute √( gh₁ ) for v and t = √(2h₂/g) in equation 1;
d = vt
d = √( gh₁ ) × √(2h₂/g)
d = 1.69√( h₁h₂ )
we substitute our values
d = 1.69√( 0.4 × 1.5 )
d = 1.31 m
Therefore, the distance that a solid aluminum sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.31 m
