Physics

Answer:

The tension force in the supporting cables is 7245N

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the elevator: the force of gravity pointing down (+) with magnitude (elevator mass) x (gravitational acceleration), and the tension force of the cable pointing up (-) with an unknown magnitude F. The net force is the sum of these forces:

F_{net} = F_g - F = m\cdot g - F\\

We are given the resulting acceleration along with the mass, i.e., we know the net force, allowing us to solve for F:

1150kg\cdot 3.5\frac{m}{s^2}= 1150kg \cdot 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}-F\\\implies F = 1150kg\cdot(9.8-3.5)\frac{m}{s^2}= 7245N

The tension force F in the supporting cables is 7245N

Which BEST describes the difference between speed and velocity?
kirill [66]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) Velocity includes rate of change and direction.

Explanation :

Speed : Speed is defined as the distance traveled by an object with respect to the time taken. It is a scalar quantity that means it tell us about the magnitude of an object not direction.

Velocity : Velocity is defined as the rate of change of position of an object with respect to the time. It is a vector quantity that means it tell us about the magnitude and direction of an object.

The only difference between the speed and the velocity is that the velocity tell us about magnitude and direction but speed tell us about magnitude only.

Hence, the correct option is, (D) Velocity includes rate of change and direction.

  • Smiling Eyes:While smiling is, of course, an important expression when we speak, attempting to keep a constant  smile could make you look more like a trained sociopath than a happy, enthusiastic presenter. These enables other person to feel the good vibes out of you and left a positive impact of your presence.
  • Nod on: It is important to express interest in the feedback of your audience. No one likes an identity-centered snob. One way to show that you're actually engaged in the comments and questions they pose is by nodding while you're listening. Moving your head a little wider will help to express your attention as well.
