Answer:
B. people with OCD know their disorder is irrational
Explanation:
Got it right
F = net force acting on the elevator in upward direction = 3000 N
m = mass of the elevator = 1200 kg
a = acceleration of the elevator = ?
Acceleration of the elevator is given as
a = F/m
a = 3000/1200
a = 2.5 m/s²
v₀ = initial velocity of the elevator = 0 m/s
Y = displacement of the elevator = 15 m
t = time taken
Using the kinematics equation
Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²
15 = (0) t + (0.5) (2.5) t²
t = 3.5 sec
Answer: d. 5 m/s^2
Explanation:
Acceleration is the change in velocity in a given time.
a = (30-20)/2 = 5
When the parachute deploys it increases the persons air resistance to (temporaily) greater than the force of weight. This causes them to decellerate. As they decellerate resistance decreases again until once again it balances out. Terminal velocity is reduced to a safe level, and landing without injury is possible.
