When the elevator moves downward, the man weighs less because of the inertia.
Force of Weight:Fg=m×g
Fs=m×g-m×1/4g=m×(g-1/4g)=m×3/4g
If He Went Up you would have to add 1/4g

a 1600 kg car on flat ground is moving 6.25 m/s. its engine creates 1150 N forward force as the car moves 45.8 m. what is it fin
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

83,900 J

Explanation:

First, find the acceleration:

F = ma

1150 N = (1600 kg) a

a = 0.719 m/s²

Now find the final velocity.

Given:

Δx = 45.8 m

v₀ = 6.25 m/s

a = 0.719 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (6.25 m/s)² + 2 (0.719 m/s²) (45.8 m)

v = 10.2 m/s

Now find the final KE:

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (1600 kg) (10.2 m/s)²

KE = 83,920 J

Rounded to three significant figures, the final kinetic energy is 83,900 J.

A paleontologist estimates that when a particular rock formed, it contained 12 mg of the radioactive isotope potassium-40, which
leva [86]

Answer:

t = 2.52 billion \:years

Explanation:

As we know by radioactivity law

N = N_o e^{-\lambda t}

so here we will have

N = 3 mg

N_o = 12 mg

now we will have

3 = 12 e^{-\lambda t}

\lambda t = ln 4

now we also know that

\lambda = \frac{ln2}{1.26 \times 10^6 yrs}

t = 1.26\times 10^6\times \frac{ln4}{ln2}

t = 2.52 billion \:years

Which of the following has the most thermal energy?
Lelechka [254]
Answer:
2. A 1 litre mug of hot chocolate at 75 degrees.

Explanation:
Thermal energy is directly proportional to mass, so as the mass increases, the thermal energy of the substance increases as well.
