G a person of mass 100 kg is riding an elevator which was initially moving up with a velocity of 3 m/s. over a distance of 4 m t

he elevator slows down to 1 m/s. find the "apparent" mass of the person during that time (as the elevator slows down).

E=mc² where c is speed of the light
3 m/s more andmore less than speed of the light. So mass of the person still 100 kg

The displacement in simple harmonic motion is a maximum when the 1. velocity is a maximum. 2. kinetic energy is a maximum. 3. ve

dlinn [17]

Answer:

3. velocity is zero.

Explanation:

The velocity of a simple harmonic motion is given by

$v = \omega\sqrt{A^2-x^2}$

Here, <em>ω</em> is the angular velocity, <em>A</em> is the amplitude (or maximum displacement from the equilibrium point) and <em>x</em> is the displacement at any time.

At maximum displacement, <em>x </em>=<em> A</em>.<em> </em>Then

$v = \omega\sqrt{A^2-A^2} = 0$

Therefore, at maximum displacement, velocity is 0.

Practically, this can be observed in a simple pendulum. As it approaches the maximum displacement, its velocity reduces. It becomes zero at this point and then reverses as the pendulum changes course. Then the velocity begins to increase. It becomes maximum at the equilibrium point but once past that, the velocity begins to reduce as it approaches the other amplitude.

For acceleration,

$a = -\omega^2x$

It follows that at maximum displacement, the acceleration is a maximum. The negative sign indicates that it is in an opposite direction to the displacement. Both kinetic energy ( $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ ) and linear momentum ( $mv$ ) are proportional to velocity; they are therefore both zero at the maximum displacement.

John has a boat that will travel at the rate of 15 kph in still water. he can go upstream for 35 km in the same time it takes to

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Let F = the downstream speed of the water.

<span>Then the boat's upstream speed is: 15 - F </span>
<span>The boat's downstream speed is: 15 + F </span>

<span>Assume both the journeys mentioned take T hours, then using "speed x time = distance" we get: </span>

<span>Downstream journey: (15 + F)T = 140 </span>
<span>Upstream journey: (15 - F)T = 35 </span>

<span>Add the two formulae together: </span>

<span>(15 + F)T + (15 - F)T = 140 + 35 </span>

<span>15T + FT + 15T - FT = 175 </span>

<span>30T = 175 </span>

<span>T = 35/6 </span>

<span>Use one of the equations to find F: </span>

<span>(15 + F)T = 140 </span>

<span>15 + F = 140/T </span>
<span>F = 140/T - 15 </span>
<span>F = 140/(35/6) - 15 </span>
<span>F = 24 - 15 </span>
<span>F = 9 </span>

<span>i.e. the downstream speed of the water is 9 kph </span>

<span>Therefore, the boat's speed downstream is 15 + F = 15 + 9 = 24 kph.
the answer is: *24kph*</span>
