A weight is hung from the ceiling of an elevator by a massless string. Under which circumstances will the tension in the cord be

the least?

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.

A car engine has power than a horse because a car engine does the same amount of work in time. Yasmin and Raj each had 10 boxes
labwork [276]

Answer:

A car engine has more power than a horse because a car engine does the same amount of work in time. Yasmin and Raj each had 10 boxes of equal weight to stack next to each other on the same shelf, at the same height and in the same arrangement. Yasmin completed the task in 2 minutes, while Raj took 3 minutes to stack his boxes. Raj applied less power than Yasmin because his stacking took more time to do the same amount of work.

1. A 455 g mass, hanging at rest on a spring, stretches the spring 22.4 cm beyond its relaxed
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

19.9 N/m

Explanation:

From the question,

Applying Hook's law

F = Ke.................. Equation 1

Where F = Force on the spring, k = spring constant, e = extension

But the force on the spring is the weight of the mass

Therefore,

mg = ke.................. Equation 2

Where m = mass. g = acceleration due to gravity

make e the subject of the equation

e = mg/e................ Equation 3

Given: m = 455 g = 0.455 kg, e = 22.4 cm = 0.224 m,

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 3

e = (0.455×9.8)/0.224

e = 19.9 N/m

Name one contact force and one force that acts through a force field
nirvana33 [79]
A contact force is a type of force which act on an object by coming in contact with the object. Examples of contact force that acts through a force field are: applied force, frictional force, air resistance force, tension, spring force, etc.
  Examples of forces that act through a force field are gravitational force, electromagnetic force, the weak interaction and the strong interaction.
