Answer: Tension = 53.6N

Explanation:

Given that

Height h = 1 m

Time t = 1.7 s.

Mass m = 5.1 kg 

From the equation of the motion we can get the acceleration of the elevator:

h = X0+ V0t + at2/2;

Th elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration. Initial velocity Vo = 0, also Xo = 0; thus

a = 2h/t2 = 2 × 1/1.7^2

a = 0.69 m/s2.

Then we can find the tension in the cord by using the formula

T = mg + ma

= 5.1 (9.8 + 0.69)

= 5.1 × 10.5

= 53.6N

yaroslaw [1]

stable equilibrium, if displaced from equilibrium, it experiences a net force or torque in a direction opposite to the direction of the displacement.

unstable equilibrium, if displaced it experiences a net force or torque in the same direction as the displacement from equilibrium. A system in unstable equilibrium accelerates away from its equilibrium position if displaced even slightly.

neutral equilibrium, is when an equilibrium is independent of displacements from its original position.

Superman is flying 54.5 m/s when he sees
Nady [450]

348.34 m/s. When Superman reaches the train, his final velocity will be 348.34 m/s.

To solve this problem, we are going to use the kinematics equations for constant aceleration. The key for this problem are the equations d=v_{0} t+\frac{at^{2} }{2} and v_{f} =v_{0} +at where d is distance, v_{0} is the initial velocity, v_{f} is the final velocity, t is time, and a is aceleration.

Superman's initial velocity is v_{0}=54.5\frac{m}{s}, and he will have to cover a distance d = 850m in a time t = 4.22s. Since we know d, v_{0} and t, we have to find the aceleration a in order to find v_{f}.

From the equation d=v_{0} t+\frac{at^{2} }{2} we have to clear a, getting the equation as follows: a=\frac{2(d-v_{0}t) }{t^{2} }.

Substituting the values:

a=\frac{2(850m-54.5\frac{m}{s}.4.22s) }{(4.22s)^{2}}=69.63\frac{m}{s^{2}}

To find v_{f} we use the equation v_{f} =v_{0} +at.

Substituting the values:

v_{f} =54.5\frac{m}{s} +(69.63\frac{m}{s^{2}}.4.22s)=348.34\frac{m}{s}
