Hope it helped you.

A. Acceleration is a wrong answer. Acceleration is the rate of change to in velocity. It involves a change in speed and direction. 

B.  Force is a wrong answer. Force is a directions from push/or pull.

C. Inertia is a correct. Inertia is a tendency of an object to stay at the rest or preserve its state of motion.

D. Velocity is a incorrect answer. Velocity is the placement of an object during a specific unit of time. It has two measurements are needed to determine velocity.

A 45.0-kg person steps on a scale in an elevator. The scale reads 460 n. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the elevat
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator is 0.422 m/s²

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

Due to Newton's Law ∑ Forces in direction of motion is equal to mass

multiplied by the acceleration

We have here two forces 460 N in direction of motion and the weight

of the person in opposite direction of motion

The weight of the person is his mass multiplied by the acceleration of

gravity

→ W = mg , where m is the mass and g is the acceleration of gravity

→ m = 45 kg and g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values in the rule above

→ W = 45 × 9.8 = 441 N

The scale reads 460 N

→ F = 460 N , W = 441 N , m = 45 kg

→ F - W = ma

→ 460 - 441 = 45 a

→ 19 = 45 a

Divide both sides by 45

→ a = 0.422 m/s²

<em>The magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator is 0.422 m/s²</em>

A dinner plate falls vertically to the floor and breaks up into three pieces, which slide horizontally along the floor. Immediat
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

There will be conservation of momentum along horizontal plane because no force acts along horizontal plane.

momentum of first piece = .320 kg x 2 m/s

= 0.64 kg m/s along x -axis.

momentum of second piece = .355 kg x 1.5 m/s

= 0.5325 kg m/s along y- axis .

Let the velocity of third piece be v and it is making angle of θ with x -axis .

Horizontal component of its velocity = .100 kg x v cosθ = .1 v cosθ

vertical  component of its velocity = .100 kg x v sinθ = .1 v sinθ

For making total momentum in the plane zero

.1 v cosθ = 0.64 kg m/s

.1 v sinθ = 0.5325 kg m/s

Dividing

Tanθ = .5325 / .64 = .83

θ = 40⁰.

The angle will be actually 180 + 40 = 220 ⁰ from positive x -axis.
