Answer:

The maximum force on the supporting cable is 80688 N.

The minimum force on the supporting cable is -164 N.

Explanation:

For maximum force movement of elevator is in upward direction. Thus, equation of motion is given by,

ma = T - mg

where m is the mass of elevator

a is acceleration of elevator

g is acceleration due to gravity

T is the maximum tension in the supporting cable

T = ma + mg

T = m (a + g)

T = 4100 ( 0.04g + 9.8)

T = 80688 N

This is the maximum force on the supporting cable.

For minimum force movement of elevator is in downward direction. Thus, equation of motion is given by,

ma = T - mg

where m is the mass of elevator

a= -0.04g is acceleration of elevator because elevator is moving downward

g is acceleration due to gravity

T is the minimum tension in the supporting cable

T = ma + mg

T = m (a + g)

T = 4100 ( 9.8 - 0.04g)

T = -164 N

This is the minimum force on the supporting cable.

Sound waves travel at the rate of 343 m/s at 20°C. If a man standing 450 meters away from the wall of a canyon yells, “Hello,” h
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

2.62seconds

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the ratio of the distance covered by a body with respect to time.

Speed v = Distance (s)/Time (t)

For a traveling sound wave, the distance between the source of a sound and the reflector is '2S'.

Speed v = 2 × distance (S)/Time (T)

V = 2S/t

2S = vt

Given speed of the wave = 342m/s

Distance covered = 450m

t = 2S/v

t = (2×450)/343

t = 900/343

t = 2.62seconds

It will take him 2.62seconds for him to hear his own voice echo off of the wall.

Vikki [24]
You didn't mention it, but the trumpeter herself has to be standing still.

<span>Person C, the one running towards the trumpeter, hears a pitch
that is higher than B-flat.  (A)

Person B, the one running away from the trumpeter, hears a pitch
that is lower than B-flat.

Person D, the one standing still the whole time, hears the B-flat.</span>
