When the elevator is going up (assuming the elevator is acceleration)

When the elevator is accelerating downwards, the total gravitational force would be larger.

If the elevator is accelerating upwards, then the gravitation force would be smaller, thus the tension in the string would be smaller.

Select all of the statements that are true.
natta225 [31]

The correct statements are "Each orbit holds a fixed number of electrons" and "The n=1 orbit can only hold two electrons." According to the Bohr model, the maximum number of electrons that can occupy an orbit is given by 2n^2, where n is the number of the orbit. For instance, when n=1 it means 2n^2= 2(1)^2=2. This particular orbit can only hold up to two electrons. Even though the electrons can gain energy and move to higher orbits or electrons from higher orbits can lose energy and drop to the n=1 level, the energy level would not allow more electrons to enter the orbit once it is full. Again the octet rule, which states that atoms achieve stability by having 8 valence electrons, limits the maximum number of electrons that can be occupied by an orbit. The gain and loss of electrons is done to achieve the noble gas configuration and once that is reached no more electron can be added to an orbit

After you pick up a spare, your bowling ball rolls without slipping back toward the ball rack with a linear speed of 2.85 m/s. T
motikmotik

Answer:

V' = 0.84 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Linear speed of the ball, v = 2.85 m/s

rise of the ball, h = 0.53 m

Linear speed of the ball, v' = ?

rotation kinetic energy of the ball

KE_r = \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

I of the moment of inertia of the sphere

I = \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2

 v = R ω

using conservation of energy

KE_r = \dfrac{1}{2}( \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2)(\dfrac{V}{R})2

KE_r = \dfrac{1}{5}MV^2

Applying conservation of energy

Initial Linear KE + Initial roational KE = Final Linear KE + Final roational KE + Potential energy

\dfrac{1}{2}MV^2 + \dfrac{1}{5}MV^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}MV'^2 + \dfrac{1}{5}MV'^2 + M g h

0.7 V^2 = 0.7 V'^2 + gh

0.7\times 2.85^2 = 0.7\times V'^2 +9.8\times 0.53

V'² = 0.7025

V' = 0.84 m/s

the linear speed of the ball at the top of ramp is equal to 0.84 m/s
