A boy with a mouse is 80 kg stands on a scale in an ascending elevator with an acceleration of 3 m/s What is the resultant upwar

d force acting on the boy due to the motion of the elevator
Physics
1 answer:
Rus_ich [418]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Upward force on the boy will be 1024 N      

Explanation:

We have given mass of the boy m = 80 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

It is given that elevator is ascending with acceleration of 3m/sec^2

So net acceleration on the boy = 9.8+3 = 12.8 m/sec^2 ( As the car elevator is moving ascending )

So upward force on the boy will be equal to F = m(g+a)

So F=80\times 12.8=1024N

So upward force on the boy will be 1024 N

2. Compare and Contrast A fault cuts through
Elenna [48]

Explanation:

The principle of cross-cutting relationships states that a fault or intrusion is younger than the rocks that it cuts through. The fault labeled "E" cuts through all three sedimentary rock layers (A, B,and C) and also cuts through the intrusion (D). So the fault must be the youngest formation that is seen and known of.

True or false? A protostellar cloud spins faster as it contracts
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

No. The protostellar cloud spins faster in the collapsing stage (stage 1) and becomes much slower in the contraction stage (stage 2)

Explanation:

Once the cloud is so dense that the heat which is being produced in its center cannot easily escape, pressure rapidly rises, and catches up with the weight, or whatever external force is causing the cloud to collapse, and the cloud becomes stable, as a protostellar cloud.

The protostellar cloud will become more dense over thousands of years. This stage of decreasing size is known as a contraction, rather than a collapse. In the contraction stage the cloud has become much slower, and because weight and pressure are more or less in balance. In the first stage of formation, the decrease of size is very rapid, and compressive forces completely overwhelm the pressure of the gas, and we say that the cloud is collapsing.
