An object is hung from a spring balance attached to the ceiling of an elevator cab. The balance reads 65 N when the cab is stand

ing still. What is the reading when the cab is moving upward (a) with a constant speed of 7.6 m/s and (b) with a speed of 7.6 m/s while decelerating at a rate of 2.4 m/s2

Answer:

(A) Reading will be 65 N

(B) Net force on the elevator will be 49.076 N    

Explanation:

We have given the balance force = 65 N

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

We know that W=mg

So 65=m\times 9.8

m = 6.632 kg

(a) In first case as the as the speed is constant so the force on the elevator will be 65 N

(B) In second case as the elevator is decelerating at a rate of 2.4m/sec^2

So net acceleration = 9.8-2.4=7.4m/sec^2

So net force on elevator will be = m× net acceleration = 6.632×7.4 = 49.076 N

Why does the number of dwarf planets recognized by astronomers in the solar system sometimes increase?
gregori [183]
Because sometimes it happens that they discover a dwarf planet
that nobody ever knew about before.  When that happens, they
ADD the new one to the list of known dwarf planets, and then the
total number of dwarf planets on the list increases by 1 .

Suppose you want to test the hypothesis that plants grow taller when they receive more sunlight. Identify and independent variab
ollegr [7]
The result that should be established is in the form
y = f(x) 
where x, the amount of sunlight is the controlled (independent) variable,
y =  height (growth) that corresponds to the amount of sunlight. Therefore y depends on x.

Clearly,
x, the amount of sunlight is the independent variable. It can be controlled.
y, the measured amount of growth is the dependent variable.

Answer:
The independent variable is the amount of sunlight.
The dependent variable is the growth.
