If the same elevator accelerates downwards

Physics
1 answer:
PilotLPTM [1.2K]1 year ago
6 0

The upward force exerted by the elevator floor on the passenger is 7.6 times mass of the passenger.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

A force in physics is an effect that has the power to alter an object's motion. An object with mass can change its velocity, or accelerate, as a result of a force. An obvious way to describe force is as a push or a pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction.

Given in question elevator accelerates downwards with an acceleration of 1.2 m/s². There is acceleration due to gravity working downward which is 9.8 m/s².

So, net acceleration due to gravity is given as 9.8 - 1.2 = 7.6 m/s²

The upward force exerted by the elevator floor on the passenger is mass times acceleration, 7.6 times mass of passenger.

10. A sound wave has a frequency of 400 Hz and a wavelength of 20 meters. What is the speed?
Dmitry [639]

Speed of wave is 8000 m/s.

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed is the measure of ratio of distance to time taken to cover that distance. In other words, speed is the measure of how fast the object can be move in a given time interval. So in this case, the wave is considered as object .  And wave consists of wavelength in place of distance and frequency as reciprocal of time interval.

So speed of wave is calculated as the product of wavelength and frequency.

As the wavelength is given as 20 m and the frequency is given as 400 Hz, then the speed will be

Speed = wavelength × Frequency = 20 × 400

Speed of wave = 8000 m/s.

So speed of wave is 8000 m/s.

Calculate P3 (in W). W (b) Find the total power (in W) supplied by the source. W Compare the total power with the sum of the pow
noname [10]

Answer:

the principle of conservation of energy cannot be violated.

the correct one is: The total power is equal to the sum of the powers dissipated by the resistors.

Explanation:

The power in an electric circuit is given by

         P == I V

In a circuit with several components (resistors) the power dissipated is the current by the voltage in each resistance, by the principle of conservation of energy the current in each resistance is the same if the circuit is in series and the current is the same if The circuit is in parallel, but cannot be greater than the current supplied by the power source.

Therefore, the power dissipated by the entire circuit is the sum of the power dissipated by each part, since the principle of conservation of energy cannot be violated.

When reviewing the answers, the correct one is: The total power is equal to the sum of the powers dissipated by the resistors.

Calculate the amount of air in a room 6m long, 5m wide and 3mm high.​
sattari [20]

Answer:

0.09kg of air

Explanation:

The dimensions of the room are given

change the height to meters by dividing it by thousand.

For the volume multiplying the length,width and height (all should be in the same unit most suitable being meters).

Volume refers to the amount of space inside a box or a object.

The amount of air is equal to the volume.
